> Simple globbing library.
## Install
```shell
go get github.com/gobwas/glob
```
## Example
```go
package main
import "github.com/gobwas/glob"
func main() {
var g glob.Glob
// create simple glob
g = glob.New("*.github.com")
g.Match("api.github.com") // true
// create new glob with set of delimiters as ["."]
g = glob.New("api.*.com", ".")
g.Match("api.github.com") // true
g.Match("api.gi.hub.com") // false
// create new glob with set of delimiters as ["."]
// but now with super wildcard
g = glob.New("api.**.com", ".")
g.Match("api.github.com") // true
g.Match("api.gi.hub.com") // true
// create glob with single symbol wildcard
g = glob.New("?at")
g.Match("cat") // true
g.Match("fat") // true
g.Match("at") // false
// create glob with single symbol wildcard and delimiters ["f"]
g = glob.New("?at", "f")
g.Match("cat") // true
g.Match("fat") // false
g.Match("at") // false
}
```
## Performance
In comparison with [go-glob](https://github.com/ryanuber/go-glob), it is ~2.5x faster (on my Mac),
because my impl compiles patterns for future usage. If you will not use compiled `glob.Glob` object,
and do `g := glob.New(pattern); g.Match(...)` every time, then your code will be about ~3x slower.
Run `go test bench=.` from source root to see the benchmarks:
Test | Operations | Speed
-----|------------|------
github.com/gobwas/glob | 20000000 | 150 ns/op
github.com/ryanuber/go-glob | 10000000 | 375 ns/op
Also, there are few simple optimizations, that help to test much faster patterns like `*abc`, `abc*` or `a*c`:
Test | Operations | Speed
-----|------------|------
prefix | 200000000 | 8.78 ns/op
suffix | 200000000 | 9.46 ns/op
prefix-suffix | 100000000 | 16.3 ns/op
