- Emacs 25.1
- `ag` (the [silver searcher](http://geoff.greer.fm/ag/))
- or `rg` ([ripgrep](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep))
- js2-mode
## Installation
If you use `js2-mode`, `M-.` will be bound by `js2`, you might want to unbind it:
```
```elisp
(define-key js2-mode-map (kbd "M-.") nil)
```
Then you need to add the xref backend:
```
```elisp
(add-hook 'js2-mode-hook (lambda ()
(add-hook 'xref-backend-functions #'xref-js2-xref-backend nil t)))
```
## Customisations
By default, `xref-js2` will use `ag` for search operations, to switch to using `rg` put the following into your config file and ensure the ripgrep executeable is visible from your **PATH** environment variable:
```elisp
(setq xref-js2-search-program 'rg)
```
If you have issues with `xref-js2` using `rg` not searching certain files, ensure the extension of those files is included in `xref-js2-js-extensions`.
You can further customize the execution of `ag` or `rg` by `xref-js2` by changing `xref-js2-ag-arguments` & `xref-js2-rg-arguments` respectively. Though take care when doing so, many of these are used to produce an output which `xref-js2` can understand.
## Keybindings
`xref-js2` uses the `xref`, so the same keybindings and UI as other xref backends is used:
