Implement verbose mode that shows files as they are discovered during
collection rather than just a summary. This provides better user feedback
during the typically slow filesystem traversal phase.
Features:
- Real-time "found: filename" output as files are discovered
- Verbose feedback during collection phase (not archiving phase)
- Simple, focused output that shows filtering effects
- Helps users track progress during potentially slow operations
Changes:
- Add --verbose boolean flag to CLI
- Pass verbose flag to collector constructors
- Display "found: filename" output during file collection
- Add test case to verify verbose output contains expected messages
- Update test suite with helper function to verify output contents
Add proper cleanup handling using bash trap to ensure test artifacts
are removed regardless of how the test script exits.
Changes:
- Add cleanup() function to remove all test artifacts
- Set trap to call cleanup on EXIT (success, failure, or interruption)
- Remove redundant manual cleanup since trap handles it automatically
- Add error suppression to prevent cleanup failures
This fixes the defect where test artifacts would remain if a test failed
or the script was interrupted before reaching the manual cleanup section.
Implement comprehensive directory filtering functionality that allows users
to control which directories are traversed during file collection.
Features:
- --include-dir: Only traverse directories matching specified patterns
- --exclude-dir: Skip directories matching specified patterns
- Support for glob patterns (e.g., 'temp-*', 'project-*')
- Multiple filters with OR logic (like existing --name/--match flags)
- Include filters take precedence over exclude filters when both specified
- Seamless integration with existing file matching functionality
Implementation:
- Add DirectoryFilter interface with Include/Exclude/Composite implementations
- Update Collector to accept optional DirectoryFilter and use filepath.SkipDir
- Add CLI flags and argument parsing for new directory filtering options
- Comprehensive test suite with 7 new test cases covering all scenarios
Allow users to specify multiple --name and --match flags in any combination.
Files matching ANY of the specified criteria are collected, following
standard Linux command conventions like grep -e and rsync --include.
Changes:
- Add CompositeMatcher for combining multiple matchers with OR logic
- Update CLI to accept multiple flag values using custom stringSlice type
- Add comprehensive tests for multiple flag combinations
- Update usage message with examples of multiple flag usage
- Add Go implementation with modular architecture
- Support --name flag for exact filename matching
- Support --match flag for directory glob pattern matching
- Create tar.gz and zip archives preserving directory structure
- Handle errors with appropriate exit codes
- Skip files with permission errors gracefully
- Add comprehensive test suite with 11 test cases
