Class: PathList

Defined in:
lib/path_list.rb

Overview

A PathList is essentially an array with a few helper methods defined to make file manipulation a bit easier.

PathLists are lazy. When given a list of glob patterns for possible files to be included in the file list, instead of searching the file structures to find the files, a PathList holds the pattern for latter use.

This allows us to define a number of PathList to match any number of files, but only search out the actual files when then PathList itself is actually used. The key is that the first time an element of the PathList/Array is requested, the pending patterns are resolved into a real list of file names.

Constructor Details

#initialize(*patterns) {|_self| ... } ⇒ PathList

Create a file list from the globbable patterns given. If you wish to perform multiple includes or excludes at object build time, use the “yield self” pattern.

Example:

file_list = PathList.new['lib/**/*.rb', 'test/test*.rb']

pkg_files = PathList.new['lib/**/*'] do |fl|
  fl.exclude(/\bCVS\b/)
end

Yields:

  • (_self)

Yield Parameters:

  • _self (PathList)

    the object that the method was called on

Class Method Details

.[](*args) ⇒ Object

Create a new file list including the files listed. Similar to:

PathList.new(*args)


440

# File 'lib/path_list.rb', line 440

def [](*args)

# File 'lib/path_list.rb', line 444

def import(array)
  new.import(array)
end

.select_default_ignore_patternsObject

Set the ignore patterns back to the default value. The default patterns will ignore files

  • containing “CVS” in the file path

  • containing “.svn” in the file path

  • ending with “.bak”

  • ending with “~”

  • named “core”

Note that file names beginning with “.” are automatically ignored by Ruby’s glob patterns and are not specifically listed in the ignore patterns.

end

#exclude(*patterns) ⇒ Object

Register a list of file name patterns that should be excluded from the list. Patterns may be regular expressions, glob patterns or regular strings.

Note that glob patterns are expanded against the file system. If a file is explicitly added to a file list, but does not exist in the file system, then an glob pattern in the exclude list will not exclude the file.

Examples:

PathList['a.c', 'b.c'].exclude("a.c") => ['b.c']
PathList['a.c', 'b.c'].exclude(/^a/)  => ['b.c']

If “a.c” is a file, then …

PathList['a.c', 'b.c'].exclude("a.*") => ['b.c']

If “a.c” is not a file, then …

PathList['a.c', 'b.c'].exclude("a.*") => ['a.c', 'b.c']

#ext(newext = '') ⇒ Object

Return a new array with Pathname#ext method applied to each member of the array.

This method is a shortcut for:

PathList['lib/test/file', 'x/y'].gsub(/\//, "\\")

#include(*filenames) ⇒ Object Also known as: add

Add file names defined by glob patterns to the file list. If an array is given, add each element of the array.

file_list.include("*.java", "*.cfg")
file_list.include %w( math.c lib.h *.o )
