- # Coming soon...
19
+ The ruby-search-engine performs a low-level Google search using Google's
20
+ UDS (User Distributed Search) which will return a JSON object containing
21
+ the query's results per page. The object is then parsed and stored into a
22
+ Ruby hash. From there, depending on the fields entered, the search() method
23
+ will return the desired fields. There is also the option to specify how many
24
+ pages will be returned. The usage section provides examples of this.
25
+
26
+ Fields/options:
27
+ * GsearchResultClass
28
+ * unescapedUrl
29
+ * url
30
+ * visibleUrl
31
+ * cacheUrl
32
+ * title
33
+ * titleNoFormatting
34
+ * content
35
+
36
+ **Note: fields must be entered as a symbol, ie. :url**

- You can simply provide input via STDIN.
26
- ruby ruby_search_engine.rb QUERY
27
-
28
- You can also run the executable via the ruby_cli gem.
29
- ./ruby_search_engine.rb c++ how to initialize an array
30
- ./ruby_search_engine.rb -p 2 c++ how to initialize an array
44
+ For a full example, go to bin/ruby_search_engine.rb
45
+
46
+ From within your app:
47
+
48
+ query = ARGV.join(" ")
49
+ # gets query from command line, also can use ARGF.read
50
+ # or
51
+
52
+ query = "my query"
53
+ # query can be any string
54
+
55
+ search_engine = SearchEngine.new
56
+ results = search_engine.search(query, :url, pages: 2)
57
+ # Calls the search method with the query, url for the field and 2 pages.
58
+ # results will be an array containing the first 2 pages worth of urls.
59
+
60
+ You can also provide input via STDIN on the command line.
61
+ $ ruby ruby_search_engine.rb QUERY
62
+
63
+ You can also run the executable via the ruby_cli gem which can help you make a command line app.
64
+
65
+ For a simple query, defaults to 1 page of results:
66
+ $ ./ruby_search_engine.rb QUERY
67
+
68
+ To specify the number of pages wanted:
69
+ $ ./ruby_search_engine.rb -p 2 QUERY
