Class RegexpOnFilenameCheck

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Configurable, Contextualizable, FileSetCheck

    public class RegexpOnFilenameCheck
    extends AbstractFileSetCheck
    Checks that a specified pattern matches based on file and/or folder path. It can also be used to verify files match specific naming patterns not covered by other checks (Ex: properties, xml, etc.).

    When customizing the check, the properties are applied in a specific order. The fileExtensions property first picks only files that match any of the specific extensions supplied. Once files are matched against the fileExtensions, the match property is then used in conjunction with the patterns to determine if the check is looking for a match or mismatch on those files. If the fileNamePattern is supplied, the matching is only applied to the fileNamePattern and not the folderPattern. If no fileNamePattern is supplied, then matching is applied to the folderPattern only and will result in all files in a folder to be reported on violations. If no folderPattern is supplied, then all folders that checkstyle finds are examined for violations. The ignoreFileNameExtensions property drops the file extension and applies the fileNamePattern only to the rest of file name. For example, if the file is named 'test.java' and this property is turned on, the pattern is only applied to 'test'.

    If this check is configured with no properties, then the default behavior of this check is to report file names with spaces in them. When at least one pattern property is supplied, the entire check is under the user's control to allow them to fully customize the behavior.

    It is recommended that if you create your own pattern, to also specify a custom violation message. This allows the violation message printed to be clear what the violation is, especially if multiple RegexpOnFilename checks are used. Argument 0 for the message populates the check's folderPattern. Argument 1 for the message populates the check's fileNamePattern. The file name is not passed as an argument since it is part of CheckStyle's default violation messages.

    • Property fileExtensions - Specify the file extensions of the files to process. Type is java.lang.String[]. Default value is "".
    • Property fileNamePattern - Specify the regular expression to match the file name against. Type is java.util.regex.Pattern. Default value is null.
    • Property folderPattern - Specify the regular expression to match the folder path against. Type is java.util.regex.Pattern. Default value is null.
    • Property ignoreFileNameExtensions - Control whether to ignore the file extension for the file name match. Type is boolean. Default value is false.
    • Property match - Control whether to look for a match or mismatch on the file name, if the fileNamePattern is supplied, otherwise it is applied on the folderPattern. Type is boolean. Default value is true.
