Unix shell-style file path pattern matching with recursive globs, iterator-based results, and faithful line-by-line transliteration from an upstream implementation, preserving original behavior and provenance tracking.
This is a Kotlin Multiplatform line-by-line transliteration port of rust-lang/glob.
Original Project: This port is based on rust-lang/glob. All design credit and project intent belong to the upstream authors; this repository is a faithful port to Kotlin Multiplatform with no behavioural changes intended.
This is an in-progress port. The goal is feature parity with the upstream Rust crate while providing a native Kotlin Multiplatform API. Every Kotlin file carries a // port-lint: source <path> header naming its upstream Rust counterpart so the AST-distance tool can track provenance.
The text below is reproduced and lightly edited from
https://github.com/rust-lang/glob. It is the upstream project's own description and remains under the upstream authors' authorship; links have been rewritten to absolute upstream URLs so they continue to resolve from this repository.
Support for matching file paths against Unix shell style patterns.
To use glob, add this to your Cargo.toml:
[dependencies]
glob = "0.3.2"If you're using Rust 1.30 or earlier, or edition 2015, add this to your crate root:
extern crate glob;Print all jpg files in /media/ and all of its subdirectories.
use glob::glob;
for entry in glob("/media/**/*.jpg").expect("Failed to read glob pattern") {
match entry {
Ok(path) => println!("{:?}", path.display()),
Err(e) => println!("{:?}", e),
}
}dependencies {
implementation("io.github.kotlinmania:glob-kotlin:0.1.2")
}./gradlew build
./gradlew testSee AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md for translator discipline, port-lint header convention, and Rust → Kotlin idiom mapping.
