[Regession] [CLI Uploader] [Windows] --file option not working as in legacy uploader

[nikosatwork]

Describe the bug --file path/to/reports/**/*.xml in legacy uploader is enough to resolve the globing and pickup all xml files under subfolders of path/to/reports In Cli this doesn't work and fails to find the files. Workaround there is --dir path/to/reports --file *.xml

Environment (please complete the following information):

• Browser: All
• System: All

CLI version 0.7.5

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Place some coverage xml reports in folders under path/to/reports
2. Run Cli upload-process passing --file path/to/reports/**/*.xml
3. Upload fails because it can't find the xml files

Expected behavior Work as in legacy uploader

@nikosatwork how are you uploading? Using the CLI directly? The Orb? The Action?

Can you post a link to your CI run or at least the relevant Codecov snippet?

Hi @thomasrockhu-codecov - we use CLI directly, in our own CI. I am still testing it, and I think I did not experience any issues with --file, so something else might have gone wrong that time.

So unless there isn't anything similar reported for the uploader, I would say it can close. Thank you.

[thomasrockhu-codecov]

huh, that is strange. I'm not seeing any other mentions of this kind of issue. I'll close for now, but as always, feel free to reopen and tag me

[nikosatwork]

@thomasrockhu-codecov I am afraid we'll need to reopen, as I managed to get more info.

So this is a problem with the Windows version only.

• When passing just --file path/to/reports/*.xml it fails with:

ExitCode: 2
Usage: codecov.exe upload-process [OPTIONS]
Try 'codecov.exe upload-process -h' for help.
Error: Got unexpected extra arguments 

• When passing it like --file *.xml --dir path/to/reports it is fine & finds the reports, etc

[nikosatwork]

As we are migrating from legacy to cli, and did not want to have to change the various jobs using it, we created a patch in our CI which converts path/to/reports/*.xml into --file *.xml --dir path/to/reports, only on Windows

But ideally Cli should work as Legacy did
