pdfgrep

Verlauf

Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

pdfgrep is a GPL-licensed command-line utility that searches text in PDF documents using fixed strings or regular expressions and reports matches in a grep-like format.

Projektgeschichte

The official release tags trace pdfgrep from version 1.0 in May 2010 through the 1.x and 2.x series. Version 2.0 arrived in January 2017, and version 2.2.0 was released in March 2024.

The project is maintained by Hans-Peter Deifel and developed in its official GitLab repository.

Adoptionsgeschichte

pdfgrep is packaged across major Unix-like ecosystems, including Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, Alpine, openSUSE, MacPorts, and Nix. Its grep-compatible interface makes it easy to add PDF searching to established shell workflows.

Wie es verwendet wird

Typical uses include searching one or many PDFs, recursively scanning directory trees, showing page numbers and context, counting matches, and filtering results through other Unix commands.

An optional cache is stored under ${XDG_CACHE_HOME}/pdfgrep when --cache is enabled. This is runtime cache data, not a configuration or credentials file.

The --password option can open protected PDFs, but the official man page warns that its value can appear in shell history and process listings.

Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

pdfgrep exemplifies the Unix pattern of extending a familiar text-processing interface to a specialized file format. It composes naturally with find, xargs, and GNU parallel while hiding PDF text extraction behind grep-like options.

Zeitleiste

2010: Version 1.0 released on May 3.
2015: Version 1.4 added PCRE and fixed-string support.
2017: Version 2.0 released on January 25.
2024: Version 2.2.0 released on March 25.

Related projects

pdfgrep intentionally follows GNU grep where that behavior makes sense and uses Poppler for PDF processing. Optional PCRE2 support supplies Perl-compatible regular expressions.
