+title: quarg - Searching Quassel
+date: 2021-05-07
+author: Wolfgang Müller
+
+## Synopsis
+
+quarg is a command-line search tool for Quassel. It supports connecting to both
+SQLite and PostgreSQL databases and has a wide range of search options. Mostly
+born of frustration with Quassel's built-in search, quarg aims to be a simple
+and easily extensible search platform.
+
+**Note:** There are no compatibility guarantees with versions under 1.0.0;
+features may change in unexpected and exciting ways. No changelog will be kept
+for versions under 1.0.0 either, please consult the commit log instead.
+

+
+You can use quarg without installing it by invoking it like so:
+
+	python -m quarg.main
+
+## Installation
+
+quarg uses Python's [setuptools](https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html).

+
+This will put quarg into `~/.local/bin` by default. If you happen to use
+Gentoo, feel free to use [the ebuild in my overlay](https://git.oriole.systems/pramantha/tree/net-irc/quarg).
