Hawkeye - Global Game Jam

Hawkeye Setup

Get up and running in a few minutes. Index your project, set up groups, and start searching instantly.

Works with any codebase — no configuration files, no build steps.

Instant Search

Search across millions of files — the speed does not change much. Hawkeye pre-indexes your code so every search returns lightning fast regardless of project size.

Drag and drop any folder to add it. Your teams can each have their own groups, or share a project-wide index. It just works.

Groups

Organise your index into groups — by project, module, team, assettype or anything else. Filter instantly in the UI.

Search one group or all of them at once. Results are instant either way.

Plugins

Hawkeye connects to the tools you already use. Open a search result on the exact file and line inside your editor — one click.

• Visual Studio — open file on the right line, add breakpoints
• Perforce — checkout or browse directly
• Sublime, Vim, Emacs, Notepad++
• Total Commander, Excel, Word
• Any tool you still want — usually a single-click setup

Overview

Large codebases accumulate tribal knowledge — undocumented patterns, hidden dependencies, areas only one person understands. Hawkeye makes that knowledge findable.

New team members can navigate code paths themselves from day one. No more bottlenecks waiting for the one person who knows where something lives.

Focused Replace

Rename a class, update an API call, or refactor a pattern across your entire project — in a few clicks, with full preview before you commit.

Search for what you want to change, review every hit, then replace exactly what you mean. No regex required.
