Feature request: regex in project-x-local-identifier #10

Closed olnw closed 3 months ago

olnw commented 9 months ago

It would be useful if we could specify local identifiers using regular expressions.

For example, most Common Lisp libraries have a <library name>.asd file in their root, which is a "system" definition, a bit like a Makefile. The requested feature would allow us to match any file with a certain extension, when the file's base name is unknown.

Hi! If this is still relevant to you: it looks like project.el upstream has recently introduced (I've just noticed this exists on 29.4) the project-vc-extra-root-markers list variable which accepts globs as well, so you could set it to something like '("*.asd").

Thanks! That's just what I was looking for.
