ferralk-glob

ferralk-glob compiles reusable, byte-first glob patterns. It accepts arbitrary bytes rather than requiring UTF-8 paths, and leaves behaviour-changing syntax explicit through PatternOptions.

use ferralk_glob::{Pattern, PatternOptions};

let source_file = Pattern::compile(
    "src/**/*.{rs,toml}",
    PatternOptions::default()
        .recursive_double_star(true)
        .braces(true),
)?;

assert!(source_file.is_match_glob_path("src/lib.rs"));
assert!(!source_file.is_match_glob_path("src/generated/lib.rs.bak"));
# Ok::<(), ferralk_glob::PatternError>(())

*, ?, and character classes are component-local by default. Enable recursive_double_star for ** to cross separators, and opt into braces, extglobs, hidden-name matching, ASCII case folding, or changed escaping only when those semantics are required.

For the full syntax, error contract, and compatibility notes, see the crate documentation and the Ferralk repository.
