💅 WHICH (nged) — like, the find-my-regions era

okay bestie so you're in nged and you need to know which regions are rocking a specific region ID — that's literally the whole gig here. The which command lists all the regions that use the region_id(s) you give it. 🎀

Real talk though: which is an alias for the whichid command, so if you ever see whichid floating around, it's the same icon. periodt.

You can drop ID numbers in one at a time, or hand over a whole range — like 100-200 — and it'll handle it no cap. 🔥

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

which [options] region_id(s)

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

The which command lists every region that uses the region_id(s) you specify. It's an alias for the whichid command, bestie — same vibe, different name. 🫶

ID numbers can be given one by one, or as a range (e.g., 100-200). Easy.

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -s, --script — switches to a space-separated output format that's way easier to parse in scripts. it's giving "made for your shell scripts" energy. 🧚
  • -V — lists all active IDs in the given range, even if there aren't any associated regions found. like, it shows up regardless. iconic.
  • -U, --unused — reports the unused IDs in the specified range. perfect for spotting the empty seats at the table. 💀
  • --root root_name — searches only in the tree below the specified root_name. scope it, don't scope-creep it. 🦋

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

Example 1. Basic usage of the which command.

mged> which 1000

Lists all the regions in the database that have a region ID of 1000. that's it. that's the whole slay. ⭐
