System.Directory.Glob

This module provides a wrapper around the glob(3) C function, which finds file paths matching a given pattern. All of the standard flags are supported, though GNU extensions are contained in the System.Directory.Glob.GNU module to encourage portability.

Documentation

(<>) :: Semigroup a => a -> a -> a infixr 6

An associative operation.

glob

Arguments

:: GlobFlag

The control flags to apply.

-> String

The pattern.

-> IO [FilePath]

The paths matching the pattern.

Finds pathnames matching a pattern. e.g foo*, prog_v?, ba[zr], etc.

globDefaults :: GlobFlag

Default value - equivalent to 0 for the C function.

globMany

Arguments

:: GlobFlag

The control flags to apply.

-> [String]

A list of patterns to apply.

-> IO [FilePath]

The paths matching the patterns.

Like glob, but matches against multiple patterns. This function only allocates and marshals data once, making it more efficient than multiple glob calls.

data GlobFlag

Control flags for glob. Use globDefaults if you have no special requirements. To combine multiple flags, use the <> operator (re-exported here for convenience). See man glob(3) for more information.
