NAME googlesearch - command line interface to google search DESCRIPTION I wanted to simply ask for top x results for something, and see a list of result urls. USAGE googlesearch [OPTION].. TERMS.. -m number max results, default is 10. -t trim results display to fully qualified domain name -o override cache (set at 6 hours) EXAMPLE USAGE First 20 results for 'boston ice cream' googlesearch -m 20 boston ice cream CONFIG You will need a ~/.googlesearch/config.yml file with: ___ LOCAL_GOOGLE_KEY: yourkey LOCAL_GOOGLE_KEY_REFERER: siteassociatedwithabovekey This is a YAML file. What is the google key and key referer? You will need to have a google account and google api key to use this cli. This is the LOCAL_GOOGLE_KEY noted in the config file. The referer is what website you generated that key for. Generating a google search api key allows you to put a search in your website. It also allows you to use this interface to search in general. (I know- it seems like- why don't we just scrape http results, right? No. Grow up, rookie. They provide the api, use it.) CAVEATS In development.
