Wildcard Match

Wildcard Match provides an enhanced fnmatch and glob library. In some ways it is similar to Python's builtin fnmatch and glob as it provides functions to match, filter, and glob the file system. But it adds a number of features found in Bash's globbing such as backslash escaping, brace expansion, extended glob pattern groups, etc. It also adds a path centric matcher called globmatch which functions like fnmatch for paths. Paths that would normally be returned when providing glob a pattern should also be properly match in globmatch.

  • Adds support for ** in glob.
  • Adds support for escaping characters with \.
  • Add support for POSIX style character classes inside sequences: [[:alnum:]], etc. The C locale is used for byte string and Unicode properties for Unicode strings.
  • Adds support for brace expansion: a{b,{c,d}} --> ab ac ad.
  • Adds support for extended match patterns: @(...), +(...), *(...), ?(...), and !(...).
  • Adds ability to match path names via globmatch as well as traditional file system searching via glob.
  • And more...

If all you are looking for is an alternative fnmatch and/or glob, Wildcard Match has you covered, but Wildcard Match also adds a file search utility called wcmatch that is built on top of fnmatch and globmatch. It was originally written for Rummage, but split out into this project to be used by other projects that may find it's approach useful.
