Glob.cs

Single-source-file path globbing for .NET (netstandard2.0 and net461).

Features

• Optionally match only directories
• Injectable file system implementation for easy testing (uses System.IO.Abstractions)
• Can cancel long running match
• Throw or continue on file system errors
• Optionally log errors to supplied log implementation
• Lazy tree traversal
• Option to limit depth of ** expansion

Syntax

• ? matches a single character
• * matches zero or more characters
• ** matches zero or more recursive directories, e.g. a\**\x matches a\x, a\b\x, a\b\c\x, etc.
• [...] matches a set of characters, syntax is the same as character groups in Regex.
• {group1,group2,...} matches any of the pattern groups. Groups can contain groups and patterns, e.g. {a\b,{c,d}*}.
