Wildcard patterns
In QOps, you can use patterns for more flexible selection of elements when working with filters. Below are examples of pattern usage:
1. Multiple characters ( * ):
Used to replace any number of characters.
For example, QOps-Apps -Filter "Name=QOps*App" will find applications with names like "QOps_App", "QOps111App", "QOpsMyApp", etc.
2. One of the character set ( [...] ):
Used to select one of the possible characters in a set.
For example, QOps-Apps -Filter "Name=QOpsApp[125]" will find applications with names like "QOpsApp1", "QOpsApp2", "QOpsApp5".
You can also specify a range of suitable characters, for example, QOps-Apps -Filter "Name=QOpsApp[A-C]" will find applications with names like "QOpsAppA", "QOpsAppB", "QOpsAppC".
Escaping special characters
In QOps, all valid special characters in names are escaped by default, with the exception of "[" and "]". For these special characters, you need to place them in additional square brackets to escape them.
For example, if you need to find an application with the name "QOpsApp[Test]", you need to escape the square brackets as follows: QOps-Apps -Filter "Name=QOpsApp[[]Test[]]".
