Installation

MELPA

M-x package-install RET counsel-dash RET

Source

Make sure counsel-dash.el is in your load-path and then:

(require 'counsel-dash)

How it works

This is a simple wrapper around helm-dash, of which you should check out for implementation details.

Unfortunately helm-dash depends on helm, so this package also implicitly depends on helm - even though helm isn't really necessary. In the future, helm-dash may be decoupled into a separate library that provides dash capabilities only. At that point we will switch over to the new library - the API will remain unchanged.

Configuration

You'll find most of the available functions and configuration variables are exactly the same as helm-dash with a different prefix (s/helm-dash/counsel-dash/.) This is because they are simply aliases to the helm-dash equivalents.
