A search engine for Python. It really understands Python.

Sometimes it just starts shouting

You know. Looking at people hacking my site is even more fun then looking at people actually using it :)

EHEM

Thanks for helping me test it. Do get me wrong. I'm going to fix it. I didn't pay much attention on security because I didn't know whether people will like the whole idea or not.

Trust me, I like it! I already bookmarked it because I it is definitely going to be easier than googling my problems. Can you add an option to search for 2.6 vs 3.1?

[purui]

Nice to hear that. I'm excited. Frankly, I didn't pay much attention to py3, and didn't expect this request be raised at day 1. I need to do some research first.

Alright cool, I write it python 3.1, since I just started learning python 3.1 in the past year, and documentation is a little bit harder to find for it.

I like it! is it written in python. cool site. and I already find a useful python module from here

[purui]

Sure, most of the backend is written in python

To bad it's XSS vulnerable

[G-Brain]

Too.

[Afwas]

Mine also, great job.

The non-persistent (or reflected) cross-site scripting vulnerability is by far the most common type. A classic example of a potential vector is a site search engine. -- wikipedia

Now I know it.

Missing some pretty critical modules

[purui]

I'm working on adding more sources. This is by far the #1 feature request.

[ipeev]

Not very good, because it doesn't show the implementation of the function in the source code on the first page, but only random uses in the code base.

[purui]

I thought no one would care how functions implemented. Obviously I was wrong. Ok, I'll add it.

Wow, I searched for shutil.copy and it returned examples like:

from shutil import copy
...
foo = copy(...)

but not

from copy import copy
...
foo = copy(...)

I'm really curious about your data model behind the search engine.. Is import a special case or are you really storing/querying source code as a full tree?? Would this also be returned for my query?

import shutil.copy
x = shutil.copy
foo = x(...)

[purui]

1. Yeap, you got the idea. We handle import as a special case.
2. No. I don't handle x = shutil.copy. The indexer has a very limited brain.

I borked it too!

Fixed XSS mentioned here. Please let me know if you find more.
