Function: registry-search

registry-search is a byte-compiled function defined in registry.el.gz.

Signature

(registry-search ARG &rest ARGS)

Implementations

((db registry-db) &rest spec) in `registry.el'.

Search for SPEC across the registry-db DB. For example calling with `:member '(a 1 2)' will match entry ((a 3 1)). Calling with `:all t' (any non-nil value) will match all. Calling with `:regex '(a "h.llo")' will match entry (a "hullo" "bye"). The test order is to check :all first, then :member, then :regex.
