hound.el
Introduction
This is an emacs package to display Hound search results and quickly open the files. If you've used ag.el then its usage will be familiar to you (most of the compilation mode code is just slightly modified from ag.el).
Usage
Invoke hound at any time with M-x hound. Hound will try and be smart and pre-populate your query with whatever symbol is under the point. It will then query the Hound server running at hound-host on port hound-api-point (customize these two variables to point to your Hound server). Results are dumped into a compilation-mode buffer with a default directory of hound-root-directory (again, customize this to suit your project). From here you can jump straight to the file and line number of the search results.
Installation
The package is hosted on MELPA, so you can install it with
M-x package-install hound

It's default is"6080".hound-repo-substitution: The Hound API lowercases all the repo names, so this alist lets you map the lowercase repo name to the actual directory you've checked out the repo to locally. It will use the substitute name in the results buffer so that emacs can find the actual file. It is an empty list by default.hound-root-directory: This is the directory that contains all your repositories. It's default is"~".hound-hit-face: Customize this to change the color/presentation of matches in the results buffer.hound-reuse-window: Non-nil means we open search results in the same window, hiding the results buffer. It's default ist
