val glob : ?anchored:bool ->
?pathname:bool -> ?period:bool -> ?expand_braces:bool -> string -> Re.t
Character '*' matches any sequence of characters and character
'?' matches a single character.
A sequence '...
' matches any one of the enclosed characters.
A sequence '^...
' or '!...
' matches any character *but* the enclosed characters.
A backslash escapes the following character. The last character of the string cannot
be a backslash.
anchored
controls whether the regular expression will only match entire
strings. Defaults to false.
pathname
: If this flag is set, match a slash in string only with a slash in pattern
and not by an asterisk ('*') or a question mark ('?') metacharacter, nor by a bracket
expression ('[]') containing a slash. Defaults to true.
period
: If this flag is set, a leading period in string has to be matched exactly by
a period in pattern. A period is considered to be leading if it is the first
character in string, or if both pathname
is set and the period immediately follows a
slash. Defaults to true.
If expand_braces
is true, braced sets will expand into multiple globs,
e.g. a{x,y}b{1,2} matches axb1, axb2, ayb1, ayb2. As specified for bash, brace
expansion is purely textual and can be nested. Defaults to false.
