Pattern

Specify the pattern that defines the current scope. The following elements and structures can be used:

  1. The file: modifier. The element is mandatory.

  2. The * asterisk to denote any symbol in a filename or file extension.

  3. Logical operators AND (&&), OR (||), and NOT (!).

Storing empty or incorrect patterns is not allowed. In such cases, DataGrip shows a Syntax Error warning.
