Glob to RegExp

A library for converting glob strings to regular expressions in golang.

Usage

import (
    "github.com/redmatter/go-globre/v2"
    "regexp"
)

urlGlob := "{http,https}://example.com/**"
// converts to ^(http|https):\/\/example\.com\/(?:(?:[^/]*(?:/|$))*)$
urlRe := globre.RegexFromGlob(
    urlGlob,
    globre.ExtendedSyntaxEnabled(true),
    globre.GlobStarEnabled(true),
    globre.WithDelimiter('/'),
)

// Compile the regexp
urlRegexp := regexp.MustCompile(urlRe)

// Match the url
if urlRegexp.MatchString("https://example.com/index.htm") {
    // do something
}

Options

The conversion to regexp can be modified using the following Option functions:

Option	Default Value	Description
WithDelimiter	'/'	Delimiter used for tokenising the compared string
ExtendedSyntaxEnabled	false	Enable extended globs, supporting classes, etc.
GlobStarEnabled	false	Enables "double-star" match for one or more tokens
