Hey folks,

I couldn't find a native way to do this, but sometimes it's desirable to make for example, deploy commands much shorter.

http://gist.github.com/232966

If this idea is liked, I can reproduce as a patch against rake.

Kind regards,

James Tucker

I've found that my instantiation of the Rake Package task for
packaging up a Rails app isn't including the '.specification' files in
the '/vendor/gems/**/*' pattern. I've recreated this on Linux and Mac
OS X.

It seems the issue is that the files, which are copied from their
origin to the target folder, are missing the files. I'm guessing this
is because of the underlying copy commands, but haven't dug into it
yet.

Has anyone else run into this? Is there anyway to get Rake to pickup
'.specification' or any other "dot" files?

FileList (also Dir.glob, File.fnmatch) does not match dot files when you use
the pattern "*".  That's by design, dot files are hidden, so the default
behavior is to not match them.  You can use the option File::FNM_DOTMATCH,
or change the pattern to match "{.*,*}".

I assumed it was default behavior, i just didn't know how to get it
changed in this case.

Is the use of curly braces in the FileList [] method documented
somewhere, I haven't seen that before? Is "{.*,*}" the same as two
separate patterns ".*" and "*" in the same FileList[]?

Thanks for the help.

FileList uses Dir.glob to find files (to include and exclude), and so supports all the same patterns:
