garybernhardt/selecta

Selecta is a standalone Ruby command-line utility that provides an interactive fuzzy-selection interface for choosing items from a list. It reads input from stdin, applies case-insensitive fuzzy matching with configurable scoring, and outputs the selected item to stdout. The system includes a test suite for its core logic and an automated script for managing releases and versioning.

A new executable script at bin/release has been added to automate the release process. When invoked with a version number, it ensures the repository is clean, updates the VERSION constant in the 'selecta' source file, commits the change, and creates a corresponding git tag (e.g., v1.2.3).

bin · high confidence

Introduces Selecta, a standalone fuzzy-selection tool that reads a list of choices from stdin and presents an interactive, case-insensitive fuzzy-matching UI in the terminal. Users can pipe any list (e.g., files, buffers, branches) into Selecta to quickly pick an item, which is then printed to stdout. The tool supports configurable UI height via --height, pre-populated search via -s, and standard navigation keys (Ctrl-N/Ctrl-P, Ctrl-U, Ctrl-W, Ctrl-H, Ctrl-C). It requires Ruby 1.9.3+, runs in an ANSI-compatible TTY, and exits with status 0 on selection or 1 when aborted or when no TTY is available. Documentation includes usage examples for Vim, Git, Zsh, and process selection.

(repo-wide) · high confidence

Added comprehensive RSpec tests covering the application's core logic. The new specs verify that the Configuration class correctly handles command-line options (such as \--height\ and initial search queries) and sanitizes invalid UTF-8 input. Search behavior is tested, including navigation (up/down/looping), filtering, backspacing, and word deletion. The scoring algorithm is validated for word-boundary preference, case sensitivity, and match quality. Finally, the Renderer is tested to ensure it correctly displays choices, respects screen height, and highlights matching text.

spec · high confidence

Introduced a Gemfile and Gemfile.lock to manage Ruby dependencies, specifically adding the rspec gem (version 3.0.0) for development. Also added the selecta.gemspec file to define the project's gem specification, including metadata such as name, version, and author.
