Readme
Make freeze-dried web searches using text mind-maps.
npm install -g eyedact
Eyedact is an alternative means to type a Google search using your own typed notes covering a complex domain.
Nothing. Alt+Tab to your browser, Ctrl+L, type and hit Enter. If you know what you are looking for, you don't need this. This is for people who are studying and want to lock down specific searches to repeat until they know what to find on their own.
Eyedact addresses a niche in note-taking and review. Someone who knows nothing about aerospace engineering can still jot down a loose mindmap relating concepts together. When they want to review, they use Eyedact to search for concepts using terms that are too vague for Google and still get results in the context for their subject. Hence "freeze dried" web searches.
In the example below, you will see notes acting as a source of searches that one would not need after becoming sufficiently familiar with Mongo.
I write loose mindmaps in text files to avoid fussing with GUIs and proprietary file formats. The structure is simple: indent concepts when they belong to the concept on a previous line.
Given the offensively incomplete text file ~/notes/mongo
for a
new student of document stores:
Mongo
Databases
collections
documents
key-value pairs
IDs are 12 byte hex values called _id
cursors
Aggregation pipeline
map-reduce
stages
Best practices
Join on write, not read
Optimize for most frequent use cases
Sharding for horizontally scaling
Benefits
Any field is indexable
Easy to replicate and scale
Commands
use
show
createCollection
show collections
insert()
find()
limit()
pretty()
remove()
save()
skip()
sort()
update()
Put this in ~/.bashrc
:
alias s?='eyedact ~/notes/mongo`
Now you can do this:
$ s? '*practices' # Search Google+I'm Feeling Lucky for "Mongo best practices"
$ s? '*remove*' '*skip*' # "Mongo Commands remove()" and "Mongo Commands skip()", in new tabs
Eyedact only searches for the first glob match and opens your default browser to Google using all the concepts leading up to that match.
Until you learn what to look for (making s?
unnecessary), you can use
vague globs to contextualize searches. Even if you run a query would
still work fine if typed into Google directly, it's nice to have a
shorter search query fire up your browser with the pages you need
already up. That is, it's nice if you are a terminal junkie that can't
be bothered with windows.
