globtest

globtest is a command-line program to help rust developers interact with the glob crate, which is used to match patterns against paths across all platforms (like fnmatch).

Usage

globtest 0.1
NeoSmart Technologies <https://neosmart.net/>
Print the results of rs-glob expressions

USAGE:
    globtest [FLAGS] <GLOB>...

FLAGS:
    -a, --all        Include hidden directories and files
    -d, --debug      Enable debug output
    -h, --help       Prints help information
    -i, --nocase     Disable case sensitivity
    -V, --version    Prints version information

ARGS:
    <GLOB>...    

globtest takes parameters that map directly to MatchOptions from the glob crate, and can be used to reproduce the results that the glob_with API would return. When called with the --debug option, globtest will output the details of the structure passed to the glob_with function.

Example

When run against the source tree of the globtest repository, this is the output:

mqudsi@neosmart ~/globtest> globtest "*"
Cargo.lock
Cargo.toml
README.md
src

and here's an example that includes directory globbing:

mqudsi@neosmart ~/globtest> globtest "**"
Cargo.lock
Cargo.toml
README.md
src

Important note: it is important to enclose filters/globs that include non-literal expressions such as * or ? in double-quotes, so that they are not globbed by your shell!

Installation

globtest has been published as a crate for easy installation via cargo:

cargo install globtest

You can also clone/fork this git repository and build it by cding into the globtest path and executing cargo install.
