Unrecognized arguments when pattern matching

[adam-bentley]

When I try to use pattern matching, I get an error that the argument is not supported.

ERROR: unrecognized arguments: filename.sql

          extra_args: '--pattern *.sql'

I've looked at these: https://github.com/bacongobbler/azure-blob-storage-upload/issues/24 https://github.com/bacongobbler/azure-blob-storage-upload/issues/15

But they don't seem to provide any insight.

Thanks for the help.

Can you try the following?

extra_args: '--pattern “*.sql”’

Because the GitHub action passes the output into a shell script, it’s possible that wildcards passed into the arguments are being expanded.

No. Please feel free to share your learnings.

I have similar problem with file names containing a dash "-" . Enclosing in quotes (extra_args: '--pattern "*.txt"') doesnt work: the pattern finds zero files (empty array).

Other suggestions?
