## Goals
| Goal | Description |
| -------------------- | ----------- |
| `replace-file` | Apply a regular expression pattern against the contents of a file, replacing matches with the specified text. The existing file is changed. |
| `replace-properties` | Apply a regular expression pattern against a set of property values, replacing matches with the specified text, and storing in new properties. |
| `replace-property` | Apply a regular expression pattern against a property value, replacing matches with the specified text, and storing in a new property. |
| `replace-text` | Apply a regular expression pattern against text, replacing matches with the specified text, and storing in a new property. |
| `match-file` | Evaluate a regular expression pattern against the contents of a file, storing the result in a boolean property. |
| `match-filename` | Evaluate a regular expression pattern against the name of a file, storing the result in a boolean property. |
| `match-properties` | Evaluate a regular expression pattern against a set of property values, storing the result in boolean properties. |
| `match-property` | Evaluate a regular expression pattern against a property value, storing the result in a boolean property. |
| `match-text` | Evaluate a regular expression pattern against text, storing the result in a boolean property. |
| `copy-file` | A convenience goal that copies all files/folders specified in a source path to a target path. |
| `move-file` | A convenience goal that moves all files/folders specified in a source path to a target path. |
### Goal: `replace-file`
| Configuration Property | Data Type | Required | Default | Description |
| `chunkSize` | `int` | | `1024` | The streaming buffer/chunk size in bytes, while evaluating the regular expressions. Adjust for classic speed/memory trade-off. Be aware that files are processed line-by-line, unless `allowMultiLineMatch` is set to `true`. |
| `filesets` | `FileSet[]` | Yes | | Executes against these files. |
| `regexes` | `Regex[]` | Yes | | Applies these regular expressions and replacement text against those files. |
| `allowMultiLineMatch` | `boolean` | | `false` | A value of `true` allows for multi-line matching. This takes substantially more memory/time to process. |
| `charset` | `string` | | `utf-8` | |
| `skip` | `boolean` | | `false` | |
### Goal: `replace-properties`
| Configuration Property | Data Type | Required | Default | Description |
| `properties` | `String[]` | Yes | | Executes against these properties. |
| `newPropertySuffix` | `String` | | `-regex` | All evaluated properties will be copied to new properties with the same property name plus this suffix. |
| `regexes` | `Regex[]` | Yes | | Applies these regular expressions and replacement text against those files. |
| `allowMultiLineMatch` | `boolean` | | `false` | A value of `true` allows for multi-line matching. This takes substantially more memory/time to process. |
| `charset` | `string` | | `utf-8` | |
| `skip` | `boolean` | | `false` | |
### Goal: `replace-property`
| Configuration Property | Data Type | Required | Default | Description |
| `property` | `String` | Yes | | Executes against this property. |
| `newProperty` | `String` | | | The evaluated property will be copied to this property name. If not specified, it will be the same name as the `property` with a `-regex` suffix. |
| `regexes` | `Regex[]` | Yes | | Applies these regular expressions and replacement text against those files. |
| `allowMultiLineMatch` | `boolean` | | `false` | A value of `true` allows for multi-line matching. This takes substantially more memory/time to process. |
| `charset` | `string` | | `utf-8` | |
| `skip` | `boolean` | | `false` | |
### Goal: `replace-text`
| Configuration Property | Data Type | Required | Default | Description |
| `text` | `String` | Yes | | Execute against this text. |
| `newProperty` | `String` | Yes | | The evaluated text will be copied to this property name. |
| `regexes` | `Regex[]` | Yes | | Applies these regular expressions and replacement text against those files. |
| `allowMultiLineMatch` | `boolean` | | `false` | A value of `true` allows for multi-line matching. This takes substantially more memory/time to process. |
| `charset` | `string` | | `utf-8` | |
| `skip` | `boolean` | | `false` | |
### Goal: `match-file`
| Configuration Property | Data Type | Required | Default | Description |
| `chunkSize` | `int` | | `1024` | The streaming buffer/chunk size in bytes, while evaluating the regular expressions. Adjust for classic speed/memory trade-off. Be aware that files are processed line-by-line, unless `allowMultiLineMatch` is set to `true`. |
| `filesets` | `FileSet[]` | Yes | | Executes against these files. |
| `newProperty` | `String` | Yes | | If a single regular expression matches the contents in a single file, then this property will be set to `true`; `false` otherwise. |
| `patterns` | `String[]` | Yes | | Evaluates these regular expressions against those files. |
| `allowPartialMatch` | `boolean` | | `true` | A value of `true` allows for partial matching, rather than exact line-by-line matching. |
| `negate` | `boolean` | | `false` | A value of `true` will reverse the `true`/`false` on the resultant property value. |
| `allowMultiLineMatch` | `boolean` | | `false` | A value of `true` allows for multi-line matching. This takes substantially more memory/time to process. |
| `charset` | `string` | | `utf-8` | |
| `skip` | `boolean` | | `false` | |
### Goal: `match-filename`
| Configuration Property | Data Type | Required | Default | Description |
| `sourceDirectory` | `File` | Yes | | Executes against this file. |
| `newProperty` | `String` | Yes | | If a single regular expression matches the name of the file, then this property will be set to `true`; `false` otherwise. |
| `patterns` | `String[]` | Yes | | Evaluates these regular expressions the file. |
| `allowPartialMatch` | `boolean` | | `true` | A value of `true` allows for partial matching, rather than exact filename matching. |
| `negate` | `boolean` | | `false` | A value of `true` will reverse the `true`/`false` on the resultant property value. |

| `allowPartialMatch` | `boolean` | | `true` | A value of `true` allows for partial matching, rather than exact matching. |
| `negate` | `boolean` | | `false` | A value of `true` will reverse the `true`/`false` on the resultant property value. |
| `allowMultiLineMatch` | `boolean` | | `false` | A value of `true` allows for multi-line matching. Very rare for property evaluation. |
