Traditional glob wildcards support a very narrow set of metacharacters — * is “anything”, ? is an arbitrary single character; Bourne shell also supports [a-z123] for a single character out of a set of alternatives, and [!x-z789] any one except those listed. Regex obviously is much richer, supporting repetitions, and (in ERE) alternation and specific … Read more
You missed the most important, biggest difference between them: glob gives you back a list, but opendir gives you a directory handle. You can pass that directory handle around to let other objects or subroutines use it. With the directory handle, the subroutine or object doesn’t have to know anything about where it came from, … Read more
This: filename.jar: $(wildcard res/**/*) seems to work, at least on some platforms. EDIT: Or better, just cut the knot: filename.jar: $(shell find res -type f)
This glob includes all *.js but not *.spec.js: components/**/!(*.spec).js
The glob module uses the fnmatch module for individual path elements. That means the path is split into the directory name and the filename, and if the directory name contains meta characters (contains any of the characters [, * or ?) then these are expanded recursively. If you have a list of strings that are … Read more
Try this glob pattern: myProject/src/**/!(*.js|*.map|*.src)
The javadoc for FileSystem#getPathMatcher() has some pretty good examples and explanations *.java Matches a path that represents a file name ending in .java *.* Matches file names containing a dot *.{java,class} Matches file names ending with .java or .class foo.? Matches file names starting with foo. and a single character extension /home/*/* Matches /home/gus/data on … Read more
The easiest way would be to filter the glob results yourself. Here is how to do it using a simple loop comprehension: import glob res = [f for f in glob.glob(“*.txt”) if “abc” in f or “123” in f or “a1b” in f] for f in res: print f You could also use a regexp … Read more
import glob import shutil dest_dir = “C:/test” for file in glob.glob(r’C:/*.txt’): print(file) shutil.copy(file, dest_dir)
In the currently-in-development version 0.4.0a, the grunt.file.expand method now supports exclusions, and does so in an arguably less complex way than the underlying minimatch matching library. This is possible because grunt.file.expand accepts multiple patterns (whereas minimatch only accepts one). From the grunt.file.expand documentation: This method accepts either comma separated wildcard patterns or an array of … Read more
