Method: RuboCop::PathUtil.match_path?

Defined in:
lib/rubocop/path_util.rb

.match_path?(pattern, path, config_path) ⇒ Boolean

TODO: The old way of matching patterns is flawed, so a new one has been introduced. We keep supporting the old way for a while and issue deprecation warnings when a pattern is used that produced a match with the old way but doesn't match with the new.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

      # we overrule. Only patterns like dir/**/.* can be used to match dot
      # files. Hidden directories (starting with a dot) will also produce
      # an old match, just like hidden files.
