Sublime text 2 find in folder with file extension

Question

How do I search in a folder in sublime text 2 with file extension?

My where when I use:

*.js

searches globally for all js files.

Answer 1

Instead of this:

/project/*.js

Try using this:

project .js

This should match files which have project in the path and have a .js extension

EDIT: The above assumes you're trying to find all the files with .js extension using the Goto Anything feature in Sublime Text.

In case you'd like to search within .js files located within a directory, you can add an Include Filter in the search path:

/project,*.js

This will search for the text you've entered, limiting the scope to files within /project and it's sub-directories having the extension .js.

EDIT 2: For Sublime Text 3, refer Simons answer below.

Answer 2

My Sublime ver: 3.2.2

Adding to above answers, I was trying to find in all python files starting with test_ . so this is how I did it.

After pressing Ctrl+Shift+F, in the window.

Where : /home/WorkDir/test, test_*.py

Answer 3

godfrzero's answer does not work in Sublime 3 as it actually includes ALL JS files plus ALL files in the project folder.

Instead, you need to specify it similar to how you had it originally...

project/*.js

Note that there's no leading slash, as that will treat it as an absolute path which you won't want in most cases. To include multiple file types within the folder, I think you need to specify it like this:

folder/*.ctp,folder/*.php

This will match any of the following files:

/app/folder/example.ctp
/app/folder/example.php
/app/folder/subfolder/example.ctp
/app/long/path/folder/subfolder/example.php

I know you asked about Sublime 2, but hopefully this helps others (like myself) who are Googling for such advice.
