Recursive wildcards in Rake?
- by Roger Lipscombe
Follow up to this question about GNU make:
I've got a directory, flac, containing .FLAC files. I've got a corresponding directory, mp3 containing MP3 files. If a FLAC file is newer than the corresponding MP3 file (or the corresponding MP3 file doesn't exist), then I want to run a bunch of commands to convert the FLAC file to an MP3 file, and copy the tags across.
The kicker: I need to search the flac directory recursively, and create corresponding subdirectories in the mp3 directory. The directories and files can have spaces in the names, and are named in UTF-8.
It turns out that this won't work in make, because of the spaces in the directories and filenames, so I'm wondering how to do it in rake instead...
