A FileList is essentially an array with a few helper methods defined to make file manipulation a bit easier.
FileLists 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 FileList holds the pattern for latter use.
This allows us to define a number of FileList to match any number of files, but only search out the actual files when then FileList itself is actually used. The key is that the first time an element of the FileList/Array is requested, the pending patterns are resolved into a real list of file names.
ARRAY_METHODS | = | (Array.instance_methods - Object.instance_methods).map { |n| n.to_s } | List of array methods (that are not in Object) that need to be delegated. | |
MUST_DEFINE | = | %w[to_a inspect] | List of additional methods that must be delegated. | |
MUST_NOT_DEFINE | = | %w[to_a to_ary partition *] | List of methods that should not be delegated here (we define special versions of them explicitly below). | |
SPECIAL_RETURN | = | %w[ map collect sort sort_by select find_all reject grep compact flatten uniq values_at + - & | ] | List of delegated methods that return new array values which need wrapping. | |
DELEGATING_METHODS | = | (ARRAY_METHODS + MUST_DEFINE - MUST_NOT_DEFINE).collect{ |s| s.to_s }.sort.uniq | ||
DEFAULT_IGNORE_PATTERNS | = | [ /(^|[\/\\])CVS([\/\\]|$)/, /(^|[\/\\])\.svn([\/\\]|$)/, /\.bak$/, /~$/ | ||
DEFAULT_IGNORE_PROCS | = | [ proc { |fn| fn =~ /(^|[\/\\])core$/ && ! File.directory?(fn) } |
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 = FileList.new('lib/**/*.rb', 'test/test*.rb') pkg_files = FileList.new('lib/**/*') do |fl| fl.exclude(/\bCVS\b/) end
Grep each of the files in the filelist using the given pattern. If a block is given, call the block on each matching line, passing the file name, line number, and the matching line of text. If no block is given, a standard emac style file:linenumber:line message will be printed to standard out.
Register a list of file name patterns that should be excluded from the list. Patterns may be regular expressions, glob patterns or regular strings. In addition, a block given to exclude will remove entries that return true when given to the block.
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:
FileList['a.c', 'b.c'].exclude("a.c") => ['b.c'] FileList['a.c', 'b.c'].exclude(/^a/) => ['b.c']
If "a.c" is a file, then …
FileList['a.c', 'b.c'].exclude("a.*") => ['b.c']
If "a.c" is not a file, then …
FileList['a.c', 'b.c'].exclude("a.*") => ['a.c', 'b.c']
Return a new file list that only contains file names from the current file list that exist on the file system.
Return a new FileList with String#ext method applied to each member of the array.
This method is a shortcut for:
array.collect { |item| item.ext(newext) }
ext is a user added method for the Array class.
Add file names defined by glob patterns to the file list. If an array is given, add each element of the array.
Example:
file_list.include("*.java", "*.cfg") file_list.include %w( math.c lib.h *.o )
Apply the pathmap spec to each of the included file names, returning a new file list with the modified paths. (See String#pathmap for details.)
