NAME
tracker-search - Search all content for keywords

SYNOPSIS
tracker-search [OPTION...] EXPRESSION [EXPRESSION...]

DESCRIPTION
tracker-search searches all indexed content for EXPRESSION. The resource in which EXPRESSION matches must exist (see --all for more information). All results are returned in ascending order. In all cases, if no EXPRESSION is given for an argument (like --folders for example) then ALL items in that category are returned instead.

EXPRESSION
    One or more terms to search. The default operation is a logical AND. For logical OR operations, see -r.

-l, --limit=N
    Limit search to N results. The default is 512.

-o, --offset=N
    Offset the search results by N. For example, start at item number 10 in the results. The default is 0.

-r, --or-operator
    Use OR for search terms instead of AND (the default)

-d, --detailed
    Show more detailed results (only applies to general search)
