Support for matching file paths against Unix shell style patterns.
The glob and glob_with functions, in concert with the GlobIterator
type, allow querying the filesystem for all files that match a particular
pattern - just like the libc glob function (for an example see the glob
documentation). The methods on the Pattern type provide functionality
for checking if individual paths match a particular pattern - in a similar
manner to the libc fnmatch function
For consistency across platforms, and for Windows support, this module
is implemented entirely in Rust rather than deferring to the libc
glob/fnmatch functions.
| GlobIterator | An iterator that yields Paths from the filesystem that match a particular
pattern - see the |
| MatchOptions | Configuration options to modify the behaviour of |
| Pattern | A compiled Unix shell style pattern. |
| glob | Return an iterator that produces all the Paths that match the given pattern, which may be absolute or relative to the current working directory. |
| glob_with | Return an iterator that produces all the Paths that match the given pattern, which may be absolute or relative to the current working directory. |
Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g.
fn:) to restrict the search to a given type.
Accepted types are: fn, mod,
struct (or str), enum,
trait, typedef (or
tdef).
