## Owerview

*xlsxgrep* is a CLI tool to search text in XLSX, XLS, CSV, TSV and ODS files. It works similarly to Unix/GNU Linux *grep*.

## Features

- Grep compatible: xlsxgrep tries to be compatible with Unix/Linux grep, where it makes sense. 
  Some of grep options are supported (such as `-r`, `-i`  or `-c`).

- Search many XLSX, XLS, CSV, TSV and ODS files at once, even recursively in directories.

- Regular expressions: Python regex.

- Supported file types: csv, ods, tsv, xls, xlsx 

## Usage:
```

usage: xlsxgrep [-h] [-V] [-P] [-F] [-i] [-w] [-c] [-r] [-H] [-N] [-l] [-L] [-S SEPARATOR] [-Z]
                pattern path [path ...]

positional arguments:
  pattern               use PATTERN as the pattern to search for.
  path                  file or folder location

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -V, --version         display version information and exit.
  -P, --python-regex    PATTERN is a Python regular expression. This is the default.
  -F, --fixed-strings   interpret PATTERN as fixed strings, not regular expressions.
  -i, --ignore-case     ignore case distinctions.
  -w, --word-regexp     force PATTERN to match only whole words.
  -c, --count           print only a count of matches per file.
  -r, --recursive       search directories recursively.
  -H, --with-filename   print the file name for each match.
  -N, --with-sheetname  print the sheet name for each match.
  -l, --files-with-match
                        print only names of FILEs with match pattern.
  -L, --files-without-match
                        print only names of FILEs with no match pattern.
  -S SEPARATOR, --separator SEPARATOR
                        define custom list separator for output, the default is TAB
  -Z, --null            output a zero byte (the ASCII NUL character) instead of the usual newline.
 
```

## Examples: 
```sh
xlsxgrep -i "foo" foobar.xlsx
```
```sh
xlsxgrep -c -H "(?i)foo|bar" /folder
```
## Installation

```sh
     pip install xlsxgrep  
```
