Match Plugins¶
Match Plugins indicate if a given file matches the rule it defines. For example, if the file has a certain extension, or if the file name starts with a certain character. The available match plugins are:
file-extension-is¶
Matches if the file’s extension is equal to the given extension. Not case sensitive. More than one extension may be given, space separated.
match:
- file-extension-is: .log .txt
- Would match:
- test.log
- test.txt
- a.file.with.multiple.periods.txt
- But not:
- test.jpg
filename-contains¶
Matches if the filename (without extension) contains the given string. Not case sensitive.
match:
- filename-contains: foo
- Would match:
- this_file_has_foo.log
- foo_and_more_foo.log
- But not:
- test.jpg
- test.foo
filename-ends-with¶
Matches if the filename (without extension) ends with the given string. Not case sensitive.
match:
- filename-ends-with: bar
- Would match:
- foo_and_bar.log
- bar.log
- But not:
- bar_test.jpg
- test.bar
filename-matches¶
