Help creating custom fuzzy seach command script.
(monero.town)
It looks like you haven't passed a package name to nix-search
, so it's just printing the usage info, and fzf
is ingesting the lines of that usage info for you to fuzzy search over.
fzf
won't pass the search query back to whatever program piped in the input. The search query is only used to narrow the results.
I'm not sure how to go about interactively searching nixpkgs with fzf, but you could start by writing a function that accepts a package name or whatever you want to search for and passes it to nix-search
. Then fzf
can narrow down the results for you.

In general, if your submission text is primarily shell code, then it is welcome here!
