Outputs

OUTPUT TYPE DESCRIPTION
has-custom-patterns string Indicates whether at least one
pattern was provided
paths string List of filtered paths using
the specified patterns and separator
paths-output-file string List of filtered paths using
the specified patterns and separator
stored in a temporary file

Path filtering

File and Directory patterns are evaluted using minimatch with the help of the @actions/glob package.

Enabled

Optionally enabled

Disabled

  • nobrace: Ensures that brace or brace sets can be used.

Pattern Gotcha

The ** pattern in minimatch matches any number of directories and files recursively, but it must be followed by a directory separator (/ on Unix-like systems) to be effective. If you want to match all files with the .js extension in a directory and its subdirectories, you should use the **/*.js pattern as opposed to **.js

Patterns

Glob behaviour

Patterns *, ?, [...], and ** (globstar) are supported.

With the following behaviours:

  • File names that begin with . may be included in the results
  • Case insensitive on Windows
  • Directory separators / and \ are both supported on Windows

Tilde expansion

Supports basic tilde expansion, for current user HOME replacement only.

Example:

  • ~ may expand to /Users/johndoe
  • ~/foo may expand to /Users/johndoe/foo

Comments

Patterns that begin with # are treated as comments.

Exclude patterns

Leading ! changes the meaning of an include pattern to exclude.

Multiple leading ! flips the meaning.

Escaping

Wrapping special characters in [] can be used to escape literal glob characters in a file name. For example the literal file name hello[a-z] can be escaped as hello[[]a-z].

On Linux/macOS \ is also treated as an escape character.

If you feel generous and want to show some extra appreciation:
