Pattern matching reference
Bamboo supports a powerful type of regular expression for matching files and directories (as with pattern matching in Apache Ant).
These expressions use the following wildcards:
? | Matches one character (any character except path separators) |
* | Matches zero or more characters (not including path separators) |
** | Matches zero or more path segments. |
Remember that Ant globs match paths, not just simple filenames.
- If the pattern does not start with a path separator i.e. / or \, then the pattern is considered to start with
/**/
. - If the pattern ends with
/
then**
is automatically appended. - A pattern can contain any number of wild cards.
Also see the Ant documentation.
Examples
*.txt | Matches /foo.txt and /bar.txt but not /foo.txt or /bar.txt |
/*.txt | Matches /foo.txt but not /bar/foo.txt |
dir1/file.txt | Matches /dir1/file.txt , /dir3/dir1/file.txt and /dir3/dir2/dir1/file.txt |
**/dir1/file.txt | Matches /dir1/file.txt , /dir3/dir1/file.txt and /dir3/dir2/dir1/file.txt |
/**/dir1/file.txt | Matches /dir1/file.txt , /dir3/dir1/file.txt and /dir3/dir2/dir1/file.txt |
/dir3/**/dir1/file.txt | Matches /dir3/dir1/file.txt and /dir3/dir2/dir1/file.txt but not /dir3/file.txt,/dir1/file.txt |
/dir1/** | Matches all files under /dir1/ |
