LDSGospelSearch lets you specify a search/predicate tree to search verses or chapters of scriptures from the library of Gospel Library.
LDSGospelSearch.GUI is a free .net 4.8 app that does advanced searching of the scriptures from the Gospel Library library. In the future I may write a paid version to search the whole library from Gospel Library if there is enough demand for it. I will always having a free version to search the scriptures.
Download LDSGospelSearch.GUI as msi installer or files in a zip. When installing from msi, you need to select run anyways because I have not bought a program signing certificate.
Predicates:
- Regex: Takes one <Pattern> node which consists of .net Regex Pattern. And an optional <Options> node which lets you specify the RegexOptions to use. I recommend using IgnoreCase for <Options>. For the <Pattern> node you can simply put in words or phares you are looking for or add more advanced features like \b which used to designate word boundaries.
- NRegex: Not the Regex
- Index: Takes one <Text> node, which is the text it will be looking for. And an optional <Comparision> node whichlets you specify the StringComparison to use. I recommend using CurrentCultureIgnoreCase for the <Comparision> node.
- NIndex: Not the Index
- And: Performs a logical And of one or more nested <Predicate> nodes.
- Or: Performs a logical Or of one or more nested <Predicate> nodes.
- Not: Performs a logical Not on one nested <Predicate> node.
- Xor: Performs a logical Xor on two nested <Predicate> nodes.
- NAnd: Not the And
- NOr: Not the Or
- Equals
- Same
- Diff
- Trues
- Falses
- NEquales: Not the Equals
- NSame: Not the Same
- NDiff: Not the Diff
- NTrues: Not the Trues
- NFalses: Not the False
- Count: Counts the number of one or more nested nodes that evaluates to true. And then compares that count to one or more nodes, which is then Anded. Meaning if you want this node to return true all the tests need to return true. Inside the node you need to specify the type of compare and then the number the count is compared to. Here are the types of comparing you can perform:
- Count Variations
LDSGospelSearch.GUI will not search the summaries for each chapter. It does search the introductions that were translated from the gold plates for the Book of Mormon.
These are the “scriptures” that program will not search. To learn about why various D&C sections are not included see Doctrine and Covenants.
