As a workaround, it is possible to make every glob character a character set of
one character (wrapping it with [] ). The gotcha here is that you can't just
use multiple replaces because you would escape the escape brackets.
Here is a function adapted from [1]:
def escape_glob(path):
transdict = {
'[': '[[]',
']': '[]]',
'*': '[*]',
'?': '[?]',
}
rc = re.compile('|'.join(map(re.escape, transdict)))
return rc.sub(lambda m: transdict[m.group(0)], path)
