A collection of plugins for SearchLink.
Just save any of these plugins to ~/.local/searchlink/plugins and SearchLink will add them as valid searches. You could, if you wanted to, clone the entire project to that folder with:
$ mkdir -p ~/.local/searchlink
$ cd ~/.local/searchlink
$ git clone [email protected]:ttscoff/searchlink-plugins.git plugins
If you intend to develop your own plugins or make modifications to existing ones, fork the repo first and close that to your local drive, allowing you to make pull requests from your fork.
All of SearchLink's searches are defined as plugins. You can duplicate any of them into the plugins folder and override default functionality, or use them as examples for developing your own.
Another example of a text filter. This one can insert a Markdown calendar for any month and year. You can define the month and year like !cal 5 2024 to get a calendar for May, 2024. If you use !cal now it will insert a calendar for the current month and year. It can also print how many days are in a month with !days 2 2024 to show how many days are in February, 2024. Silly, and would probably be better as a TextExpander snippet, but I'm just experimenting with extending SearchLink.
This plugin demonstrates adding your own custom search engine through Google. Create a custom engine here to search specific pages/sites, then modify the plugin according to the comments at the top to create your own custom site search.
Requires a Google API key.
This plugin uses a custom site search from Google Programmable Search to search IMDB, actors, or titles. Just another demo of how to use custom engines to create plugins. Requires a Google API key.
Adds searches !imdb, !imdba (actor search), and !imdbt (tv/movie title search).
This plugin will search https://genius.com for a song, returning either a link (!lyric) or embedding the actual lyrics (!lyrice). It demonstrates both search and embed functionality, and is fully commented to serve as an example plugin.
This is a port of a TextExpander snippet I use. It takes a natural language date and inserts a formatted date. It provides the following formats:
| Abbr | Result |
|---|---|
!ddate tomorrow 8am |
2023-11-02 8:00am |
!dshort tomorrow 8am |
2023-11-2 8:00am |
!diso tomorrow 8am |
2023-11-02 08:00 |
!dlong tomorrow 8am |

This plugin requires that PHP be installed on the system, either with the Apple Command Line Utilties (I think), or with Homebrew (brew install php).
This plugin searches mapages.org for a matching command and returns the url, including command name and man section, e.g. https://manpages.org/lsof/8, as well as a title with a brief description of the command. So running SearchLink on !man lsof would return [lsof](https://manpages.org/lsof/8 "lsof (8): list open files"). If the search term contains multiple words, they'll be parsed individually until one of the words gets at least a partial search result, the shortest of which will be used.
This plugin is a text filter that will turn !mix A string of text into A STRInG of TExT, randomly capitalizing characters. It's just to demonstrate how easily a text filter can be implemented.
Use the sample code in lyrics.rb (documented in the SearchLink wiki) to generate your own plugins. Feel free to fork and submit a PR to this repository if you create something you'd like to share!
