zipgrep

Find patterns in files in a ZIP archive using extended regular expression (supports ?, +, {}, () and |). More information: https://manned.org/zipgrep.

• Search for a pattern within a ZIP archive:

zipgrep "{{search_pattern}}" {{path/to/file.zip}}

• Print file name and line number for each match:

zipgrep -H -n "{{search_pattern}}" {{path/to/file.zip}}

• Search for lines that do not match a pattern:

zipgrep -v "{{search_pattern}}" {{path/to/file.zip}}

• Specify files inside a ZIP archive from search:

zipgrep "{{search_pattern}}" {{path/to/file.zip}} {{file/to/search1}} {{file/to/search2}}

• Exclude files inside a ZIP archive from search:

zipgrep "{{search_pattern}}" {{path/to/file.zip}} -x {{file/to/exclude1}} {{file/to/exclude2}}
