igittigitt 1.0.4

A spec-compliant gitignore parser for Python

igittigitt

Version v1.0.4 as of 2020-08-14 see Changelog

A spec-compliant gitignore parser for Python

forked from https://github.com/mherrmann/gitignore_parser we might join later ….

Suppose /home/michael/project/.gitignore contains the following:

# /home/michael/project/.gitignore
__pycache__/
*.py[cod]

Then:

>>> import igittigitt
>>> parser = igittigitt.IgnoreParser()
>>> parser.parse_rule_file(pathlib.Path('/home/michael/project/.gitignore'))
>>> parser.match(pathlib.Path('/home/michael/project/main.py'))
False
>>> parser.match(pathlib.Path('/home/michael/project/main.pyc'))
True
>>> parser.match(pathlib.Path('/home/michael/project/dir/main.pyc'))
True
>>> parser.match(pathlib.Path('/home/michael/project/__pycache__'))
True

Motivation

I couldn’t find a good library for doing the above on PyPI. There are several other libraries, but they don’t seem to support all features, be it the square brackets in *.py[cod] or top-level paths /….

forked from https://github.com/mherrmann/gitignore_parser because I need to move on faster … we might join the projects again after stabilisation
