Seedfu filtering of fixtures is not working correctly

[johnpaulh]

I am trying to filter out a fixture file using the filter option passed to the

SeedFu.seed(fixtures, filter)

passing regex eg: filter = /(?!001_file.rb)/

The regexp used inside seedfu runner is as given below(https://github.com/mbleigh/seed-fu/blob/master/lib/seed-fu/runner.rb)

filenames.find_all { |filename| filename =~ @filter }

So for my above condition the condition returns
"001_file.rb" =~ filter # returns 1

and for the rest of the files it return
"002_anotherfile.rb" =~ filter # 0

Ideally I would expect the find_all in the runner to return the filtered out filenames ie., leaving out "001_file.rb". But the find_all considers 1, 0 or any other value except nil as true and adds that file to the filenames list. Did anybody else faced this issue or am I missing something ??

+1 for this. Spent half a day trying to get filters working and they pretty much dont work without a fix for this.

An example:

Let's suppose to store seeds under APP_DIR/db/seeds/, then

Using the rake task:

bin/rails db:seed_fu FIXTURE_PATH=db/seeds FILTER=categories,tags

In the code:

SeedFu.seed(Rails.root.join('db', 'seeds'), /categories|tags/)

As you can see the way you pass arguments differs, it would be helpful to update the readme.

Many thanks for the great gem!
