Recursively find files in a directory using globs.
Based on both `walkdir` & `ignore` (❤), this crate inherits many goodies from
both, such as limiting search depth and amount of open file descriptors.
Licensed under MIT.
### Why not `glob` ###
- The `glob` crate does not support having `{a,b}` in patterns.
- `globwalk` can match several glob-patterns at the same time.
- `globwalk` supports excluding results with `!`.
- `glob` searches for files in the current working directory, whereas `globwalk` starts at a specified base-dir.
### Usage ###
To use this crate, add `globwalk` as a dependency to your project's `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
globwalk = "0.3"
```
The following piece of code recursively find all mp3 and FLAC files:
```rust,no_run
extern crate globwalk;
use std::fs;
for img in globwalk::glob("*.{png,jpg,gif}").unwrap() {
if let Ok(img) = img {
fs::remove_file(img.path()).unwrap();
}
}
```
