Method: Kernel#require_all

Defined in:
lib/core/facets/kernel/require_all.rb

#require_all(pattern) ⇒ Object

Require a pattern of files relatvie to the current file. This makes is easy to require an entire directory, for instance:

require_all 'core_ext/*'

NOTE: This method used to allow glob-based requires from the $LOAD_PATH, but this was deprecated in favor of relative requiring only, as it is consider the typical usecase, and globbing from the $LOAD_PATH is a bit dangerous. Better options exist for globbing the $LOAD_PATH such as the plugins gem.
