globtestglobtest 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).
``` globtest 0.1 NeoSmart Technologies https://neosmart.net/ Print the results of rs-glob expressions
USAGE:
globtest [FLAGS]
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:
```
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.
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!
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.
