Get names of all files from a folder with Ruby

Question

I want to get all file names from a folder using Ruby.

Answer 1

When loading all names of files in the operating directory you can use

Dir.glob("*)

This will return all files within the context that the application is running in (Note for Rails this is the top level directory of the application)

You can do additional matching and recursive searching found here https://ruby-doc.org/core-2.7.1/Dir.html#method-c-glob
