# Orgecc File Matcher

A Python library and CLI tool for Git-compatible file matching and directory traversal.

A versatile command-line, Python library and toolkit for `.gitignore`-style file matching, designed to meet four key goals:

1. **Pure Python Matcher**: Provide a pure Python implementation that precisely matches Git's behavior.
2. **File Walker**: Traverse directories while respecting `.gitignore` rules at all levels.
3. **Unit Testing**: Verify the correctness of any `.gitignore` matching library or command.
4. **Benchmarking**: Compare the performance of different `.gitignore` matching implementations.

## Features

- **Git-Compatible Matching**: Pure Python implementation passes all test cases, ensuring 100% compatibility with Git's behavior.
- **Multiple Implementations**: Choose from pure Python, external libraries ([gitignorefile](https://github.com/excitoon/gitignorefile), [pathspec](https://github.com/excitoon/gitignorefile)), or native Git integration.
- **Multiple Implementations** (see available options in [MatcherImplementation](src/orgecc/filematcher/__init__.py)):
  - **Pure Python**: No external dependencies. Aims at 100% Git compatibility.
  - **Native Git Integration**: Internally calls `git check-ignore -v`. The unit tests are adjusted according to this implementation.
  - **External Libraries**: Supports [gitignorefile](https://github.com/excitoon/gitignorefile) and [pathspec](https://github.com/cpburnz/python-path-specification).
- **[Comprehensive Test Suite](#unit-testing)**: Includes a [test corpus](tests/corpus) for validating `.gitignore` matching behavior.
- **Tree-Sitter-Inspired Testing**: The corpus files follow the same rigorous testing principles used by [Tree-Sitter](https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/), ensuring high-quality and reliable test coverage.
- **Efficient Directory Traversal**: A file walker that skips ignored files and directories.
- **Cross-Platform**: Works seamlessly on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

## Installation

Install via **pip**:

```bash
pip install orgecc-filematcher
```

## Usage

### Pure Python Matcher

Use the Git-compatible pure Python matcher (the default):

```python
from orgecc.filematcher import get_factory, MatcherImplementation
from orgecc.filematcher.patterns import new_deny_pattern_source

factory = get_factory(MatcherImplementation.PURE_PYTHON)
patterns = new_deny_pattern_source(["*.pyc", "build/"])
matcher = factory.pattern2matcher(patterns)
result = matcher.match("path/to/file.pyc")
print(result.matches)  # True or False, matching Git's behavior
```

### File Walker

Traverse directories while respecting `.gitignore` rules:

#### CLI Tool for _macOS_, _Linux_ and _Windows_

Use the provided CLI tool to traverse directories while respecting .gitignore rules:

```shell
file-walker --help
```
```
Usage: file-walker [OPTIONS] PATH

  List files and directories while respecting gitignore patterns.

Options:
  -t, --type [all|f|d]            Type of entries to show
  -f, --format [absolute|relative|name]
                                  Output format for paths
  -X, --exclude-from FILE         Base gitignore file to apply before others
  -x, --exclude TEXT              Base patterns to ignore (applied before
                                  others)
  -0, --null                      Use null character as separator (useful for
                                  xargs)
  --suppress-errors               Suppress error messages
  -q, --quiet                     Don't show summary, be quiet
  --help                          Show this message and exit.

```

#### Python Class: _DirectoryWalker_

```python
from orgecc.filematcher.walker import DirectoryWalker

walker = DirectoryWalker()
for file in walker.walk("path/to/directory"):
    print(file)
print(walker.yielded_count)
print(walker.ignored_count)
```

### Unit Testing

Use the included [test corpus](tests/corpus) to validate your `.gitignore` matching implementation.

You can see an example of failure below for the [negation.txt](tests/corpus/negation.txt) test file:

<summary>Test file: negation.txt [block #7]</summary>

### Benchmarking

Compare the performance of different matcher implementations:

```python
from orgecc.filematcher import get_factory, MatcherImplementation

# Test pure Python implementation
factory = get_factory(MatcherImplementation.PURE_PYTHON)

# Test external library implementation
factory = get_factory(MatcherImplementation.EXTLIB_GITIGNOREFILE)
```
