cd top4grep
pip3 install -e .

Usage

Database Initialization

If you want to update the papers stored in papers.db, you can recreate it with:

top4grep --build-db

Which will build the db wherever you run it.

Query

top4grep -k <kerywords>

For example, python top4grep.py -k linux,kernel Currently, the query is just a case-insensitive match (just like grep). The returned results must contains all the input keywords (papers containing keyword1 AND keyword2 AND ...). Support for OR operation (papers containing keyword1 OR keyword2) is missing, but will be added in the future.
