Recursively run cane over a directory of files about cane HOT 5 CLOSED

As a workaround, I'm doing bundle exec cane -f *.rb; bundle exec cane -f **/*.rb. This runs cane over any .rb files directly in this directory, as well as any .rb files in deeper directories.

Ugly, but it works.

**/*.rb includes the current directory, I'm not sure why you're running it twice. By default, cane uses the --*-glob options to control which directories to scan.

I'm not convinced that a public API expansion is necessary to do what you can already achieve easily with globbing. You can keep trying though! :)

@xaviershay On my Mac, **/*.rb neglects to scan files directly in the current directory.

what OS/shell?

from cane.

Mac OS X Mavericks, with builtin bash v3.0.

I managed to update bash to 4.0, and enable recursive globs, to get **/... to behave as expected.

Though it would be nice if I didn't have to use file globs, to support bash v3.0. Cane could default to recursive mode, like roodi.
