End of Life Ruby 3.1 has reached end of life and gets no more fixes. Switch to Ruby 4.0 →

class method

Dir.[]

Dir[ string [, string ...] [, base: path] [, sort: true] ] → array

# File tmp/rubies/ruby-3.1.3/dir.rb, line 127
def self.[](*args, base: nil, sort: true)
  Primitive.dir_s_aref(args, base, sort)
end

Equivalent to calling Dir.glob([string,…], 0).

Ruby version changes

3.0
- Dir.glob and Dir.[] now sort the results by default, and accept the sort: keyword option. [Feature #8709]
