match static method

bool match(String pattern, String value)

Match a pattern against a value.

Automatically detects the pattern type and delegates to the appropriate matching strategy.

Implementation

static bool match(String pattern, String value) {
  if (pattern.isEmpty) return true;

  // Explicit regex prefix
  if (pattern.startsWith('regex:')) {
    return _matchRegex(pattern.substring(6), value);
  }

  // Contains glob characters
  if (pattern.contains('*') || pattern.contains('?')) {
    return _matchGlob(pattern, value);
  }

  // Exact match
  return pattern == value;
}
