Having trouble understanding how I can do multiple expressions to search in the gui

[sheldonhull]

echo '["foo", "bar", "foobar", "taco", "burrito"]' | jq -r '.[]' | fzf -m | jq -nR '[inputs | select(length>0)]'

I've tried various examples from other discussions and help, but can't figure out why the filtering won't let me do a combination of search terms.

For example, I'd want to do foo|burrito, foo OR burrito, (foo)|(burrito), (.*foo$)|(^burrito$) or something like that. I can't get anything to work other than a simple single search term.

The goal I had was to pipe input in from json, use fzf for a multiselection with tab, and then pipe to the next step. Not sure what I'm doing wrong, or if fzf is the wrong tool for this type of usage?

try foo | burrito not foo|burrito

• see ADVANCED.md for more details and the man page for fzf for the used elements

hull() {
	INITIAL_QUERY="${*:-}"
	INPUT_LIST=$'echo \'["foo", "bar", "foobar", "taco", "burrito"]\' | jq -r \'.[]\' | grep -E '
	FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND="$INPUT_LIST $(printf %q "$INITIAL_QUERY")" \
		fzf --multi --query "$INITIAL_QUERY" --disabled \
		--bind "change:first+reload-sync:$INPUT_LIST {q} || true" | jq -nR '[inputs | select(length>0)]'
}
