Regex Issue: Use `search` instead of `match` #11

Open jdoiro3 opened 2 years ago

jdoiro3 commented 2 years ago

Is there a reason why re.match, which only matches If zero or more characters at the beginning of string match the regular expression pattern, is used instead of re.search, which looks at the entire string?

I have a case where I want to exclude all markdown files that have a certain folder name in its src_path, but can only get it to work when I change the below line in the plugin.

for r in regexes:
    if re.search(r, name):
        return False
