Learn and understand about Search-based Code Navigation.
Sourcegraph comes with a default built-in code navigation provided by search-based heuristics. It works out of the box with all of the most popular programming languages.
How does it work?Search-based Code Navigation provides 3-core navigation features:
Search-based Code Navigation also filters results by file extension and by imports at the top of the file for some languages.
What configuration settings can I apply?The searcher container recognizes these environment variables:
Env Vars Default DetailsCTAGS_COMMAND universal-ctags Ctags command (should point to universal-ctags executable compiled with JSON and seccomp support) CTAGS_PATTERN_LENGTH_LIMIT 250 The maximum length of the patterns output by ctags LOG_CTAGS_ERRORS false Log ctags errors SANITY_CHECK false Check that go-sqlite3 works then exit 0 if it's ok or 1 if not CACHE_DIR /tmp/symbols-cache Directory in which to store cached symbols SYMBOLS_CACHE_SIZE_MB 100000 Maximum size of the disk cache (in megabytes) CTAGS_PROCESSES strconv.Itoa(runtime.GOMAXPROCS(0)) Number of concurrent parser processes to run REQUEST_BUFFER_SIZE 8192 Maximum size of buffered parser request channel PROCESSING_TIMEOUT 2 hrs Maximum time to spend processing a repository MAX_TOTAL_PATHS_LENGTH 100000 Maximum sum of lengths of all paths in a single call to git archive USE_ROCKSKIP false Enables Rockskip for fast symbol searches and search-based code navigation on repositories specified in ROCKSKIP_REPOS, or respositories over ROCKSKIP_MIN_REPO_SIZE_MB in size ROCKSKIP_REPOS N/A In combination with USE_ROCKSKIP=true this specifies a comma-separated list of repositories to index using Rockskip ROCKSKIP_MIN_REPO_SIZE_MB N/A In combination with USE_ROCKSKIP=true all repos that are at least this big will be indexed using Rockskip MAX_CONCURRENTLY_INDEXING 4 Maximum number of repositories being indexed at a time by Rockskip (also limits ctags processes)
The default values for these environment variables come from config.go.
To enable precise code navigation for your repository, see our
docs here.
