Meziantou.Framework.Globbing

Supported glob features

  • * matches any number of characters including none
  • ? matches a single character
  • [abc] matches one character given in the bracket
  • [!abc] matches any character not in the brackets
  • [a-z] matches one character from the range given in the bracket
  • [!a-z] matches one character not in the range given in the bracket
  • {abc,123} matches one of the literals
  • ** matches zero or more directories

Dialects

Dialect Follows Notes
Standard the syntax above Wildcards skip names starting with a dot unless GlobOptions.MatchLeadingDot is set
Git gitignore(5) and git's wildmatch [^a], [[:alpha:]], \ escapes in brackets; {} are literal; use GlobCollection.ParseGitIgnore for a whole .gitignore file
MSBuild MSBuild item specs / and \ are separators, %XX escapes, *.* matches every file, a leading .. is kept
Posix fnmatch(3) without flags Matches a plain string: * and ? match /; [[:alpha:]], [[=a=]], [[.-.]], [^a]
PosixPath fnmatch(3) with FNM_PATHNAME Same syntax as Posix, but a / is only matched by a /

The Git, MSBuild, Posix and PosixPath dialects are tested against corpora produced by git, MSBuild and fnmatch. Characters are compared as UTF-16 code units, whereas git compares the bytes of their UTF-8 encoding.

Usage

Install the NuGet package Meziantou.Framework.Globbing (NuGet)

    glob.IsMatch("src/abc.txt");
    
  • Enumerate files that match a glob pattern

    // Enumerate files that match the glob in the folder rootDirectory
    Glob glob = Glob.Parse("src/**/*.txt", GlobDialect.Standard);
    foreach(var file in glob.EnumerateFiles("rootDirectory"))
    {
        Console.WriteLine(file);
    }
