indexing issue about counsel-etags

[redguardtoo]

ctags version? OS? Emacs version? and counsel-etags version? Are you using git?

Currently I can only guess. This package only read the tags file created by ctags. Looks ctags misspell file path. To double check, could you open the file TAGS with any text editor and double check?

You can either install latest Exuberant Ctags from HomeBrew or use etags.el bundled with Emacs.

Hello,

sorry for the lack of details, I sould have taken the time to make it right.

So I have those versions
OS : archlinux
Emacs 25.3
counsel-etags 20171111.608
project using git

About ctags, I have those two on my system

± % ctags --version Exuberant Ctags 5.8, Copyright (C) 1996-2009 Darren Hiebert

And

% ctags.emacs --version !10010
ctags (GNU Emacs 25.3)

I've checked inside the TAGS file, the path is also misspelked.
There is an update of counsel-etags so I will try that first.

EDIT updated to latest counsel-etags, rescanned code and same result.

I tested with your sample directory php files without any problem. Looks it's your ctags setup.

You should use Exuberant Ctags. What's the output of which ctags?

Run ctags -e -R in your project to create TAGS file manually. Open it and check if the path is correct.

If the issue is still not resolved, prepare a minimum project and mail to chenbin DOT sh AT gmail

Thanks,

"which ctags" outputs
/usr/bin/ctags
(it is Exuberant Ctags).

Runned from the command line, the paths are correct.

I guess there's some project setup involved in the issue as I have a similar symfony project with the same vendors, and no problem there.

So when I'll have some spare time, I'll try to prepare a project with the issue.

Sure. Take your time.

When running counsel-etags-update-tags-force, my program will output the full cli into message buffer.

For example, mine is:

find . \( -iwholename "*/.git/*" -or -iwholename "*/.svn/*" -or -iwholename "*/.cvs/*" -or -iwholename "*/.bzr/*" -or -iwholename "*/.hg/*" -or -iwholename "*/bin/*" -or -iwholename "*/fonts/*" -or -iwholename "*/images/*" -or -iwholename "*/.DS_Store/*" -or -iwholename "*/.npm/*" -or -iwholename "*/.tmp/*" -or -iwholename "*/.sass-cache/*" -or -iwholename "*/.idea\*/*" -or -iwholename "*/node_modules/*" -or -iwholename "*/bower_components/*" -or -iwholename "*/.tox/*" -or -iwholename "*/.cask/*" \) -prune -o -type f -not -size +64k -not -name "\*.json" -not -name "\*.log" -not -name "tags" -not -name "TAGS" -not -name "\*.gz" -not -name "\*.zip" -not -name "\*.tar" -not -name "\*.rar" -not -name "GTAGS" -not -name "GPATH" -not -name "GRTAGS" -not -name "cscope.files" -not -name "\*bundle.js" -not -name "\*min.js" -not -name "\*min.css" -not -name "\*.png" -not -name "\*.jpg" -not -name "\*.jpeg" -not -name "\*.gif" -not -name "\*.bmp" -not -name "\*.tiff" -not -name "\*.ico" -not -name "\*.doc" -not -name "\*.docx" -not -name "\*.xls" -not -name "\*.ppt" -not -name "\*.pdf" -not -name "\*.odt" -not -name "\*.obj" -not -name "\*.o" -not -name "\*.a" -not -name "\*.dylib" -not -name "\*.lib" -not -name "\*.d" -not -name "\*.dll" -not -name "\*.exe" -not -name ".metadata\*" -not -name "\*.class" -not -name "\*.war" -not -name "\*.jar" -not -name "\*flymake" -not -name "\#\*\#" -not -name ".\#\*" -not -name "\*.swp" -not -name "\*\~" -not -name "\*.elc" -not -name "\*.pyc" | ctags -e -L - at /home/cb/projs/ms-frontend-sandbox

The default command use both find and ctags. Maybe it's the find setup.
