Method: Dir.multiglob

Defined in:
lib/core/facets/dir/multiglob.rb

.multiglob(*patterns) ⇒ Object

Like glob but can take multiple patterns.

Dir.multiglob('tmp/*.rb', 'tmp/*.py')

Rather then constants for options multiglob accepts a trailing options hash of symbol keys…

:noescape    File::FNM_NOESCAPE
:casefold    File::FNM_CASEFOLD
:pathname    File::FNM_PATHNAME
:dotmatch    File::FNM_DOTMATCH
:strict      File::FNM_PATHNAME && File::FNM_DOTMATCH

It also has an option for recurse…

:recurse     Recurively include contents of directories.

For example

Dir.multiglob('tmp/*', :recurse => true)

would have the same result as

Dir.multiglob('tmp/**/*')
