defmodule Wild do @moduledoc """ A wildcard matching library that implements unix-style blob pattern matching functionality for Elixir binaries. It works on all binary input and defaults to working with codepoint representations of binaries. The `match?/3` and `valid_pattern?/1` functions support all of the usual wildcard pattern mechanisms: - `*` matches none or many tokens - `?` matches exactly one token - `[abc]` matches a set of tokens - `[a-z]` matches a range of tokens - `[!...]` matches anything but a set of tokens """ alias Wild.{Bash, Engine, Validator} require Logger @doc """ Executes a unix-style wildcard blob pattern match on a binary with a given pattern. By default it tokenizes and runs on `codepoints` but can also be set to `byte` mode. ## Examples iex> Wild.match?("foobar", "foo*") true iex> Wild.match?("foobar", "fo[a-z]bar") true iex> Wild.match?(<<9, 97, 98>>, "?ab") true iex> Wild.match?("foobar", "bar*") false iex> Wild.match?(<<16, 196, 130, 4>>, "????", mode: :byte) true The options are: * `:mode` - The matching mode. This primarily affects tokenization and what is considered a single match for the `?` wildcard. Options are: * `:codepoint` (default) - Tokenize on printable String characters * `:byte` - Tokenize on each byte * `:bash` - Using an underlying bash script. Only for debugging The distinction is important for subject and patterns like the following, where the binary is represented by two bytes but only one codepoint: ``` iex> Wild.match?("ā", "?", mode: :codepoint) true iex> Wild.match?("ā", "?", mode: :byte) false ``` If we do an example tokenization of our `"ā"` subject we can see that depending on how you treat the binary you can produce different amounts tokens: ``` iex> String.codepoints("ā") ["ā"] iex> :binary.bin_to_list("ā") [196, 129] ``` If you are dealing with user input from forms this is likely not something you will encounter and can keep the default value of `:codepoint`. * `:on_pattern_error` - What to do when the pattern is invalid. The options are: * `:fail` (default) - Simliar to case statements in Bash where an invalid pattern won't match the subject, simply fail the match and return `false` * `:return` - Returns an `{:error, error}` tuple * `:raise` - Raise an error """ @spec match?(binary(), binary()) :: boolean() @spec match?(binary(), binary(), keyword()) :: boolean() | {:error, String.t()} def match?(subject, pattern, opts \\ []) do opts = Keyword.put_new(opts, :mode, :codepoint) case Keyword.get(opts, :mode) do :bash -> Bash.match?(subject, pattern, opts) _ -> Engine.match?(subject, pattern, opts) end end @doc """ Checks if the given pattern is a valid unix-style wildcard pattern.
