Most +people understand that if you put a `*` character somewhere in a string, it is +treated as a wildcard. Surprisingly, this functionality isn't found in Go's +standard library, except for `path.Match`, which is intended to be used while +comparing paths (not arbitrary strings), and contains specialized logic for this +use case. A better solution might be a POSIX basic (non-ERE) regular expression +engine for Go, which doesn't exist currently. + +Example +======= + +``` +package main + +import "github.com/ryanuber/go-glob" + +func main() { + glob.Glob("*World!", "Hello, World!") // true + glob.Glob("Hello,*", "Hello, World!") // true + glob.Glob("*ello,*", "Hello, World!") // true + glob.Glob("World!", "Hello, World!") // false + glob.Glob("/home/*", "/home/ryanuber/.bashrc") // true +} +``` |
