No way to expand globs in a command about docker-buildkite-plugin HOT 5 CLOSED

Unfortunately there is no interpolation or shell expansion that would expand that glob. We are at the mercy of whatever glob expansion shellcheck or that docker image provides.

I'm not sure I understand: bash does expand that **/*.sh glob for me. Are you saying that the plugin doesn't have a way to do that? If so, I'm looking for the plugin to support an option to expand globs, for images where's there's no other option, e.g. AFAICT, that image doesn't even contain a shell so the only way to expand globs is to do it externally. It's true that I could do it without using this plugin, but doing it declaratively is much nicer.

Hypothetically, the plugin could have an option expand_command_globs: true that passes all the command values through some expand_glob function to go from **/*.sh to, say, foo/bar.sh foo/baz/qux.sh.

I see your conundrum there. Have you checked out https://github.com/buildkite-plugins/shellcheck-buildkite-plugin @huonw? Perhaps we should choose a different example for the readme here.

Out of interest… how did you end here at this plugin, instead the spellcheck one? Perhaps that's something we should look at.

Thanks! That solves my specific issue in the best way!

We're using the docker plugin for our other steps (with custom docker images, so no more specific plugin for them), and I didn't even think to look for a different plugin.

Thanks @huonw! Good to hear. We'll find a better readme example…
