What’s the intended usage of the

glob

types (e.g. filepath pattern). Do I just pass them into e.g.

files(params.filepath_glob)

to get the files I need?

In what case are you using these? It depends a bit on if you use parameter types or not

No typed params yet. I allow users to supply a glob for some index file fields (so they can use both csi and tbi) and I was wondering what is the correct way to get the actual files to pass into processes

glob

files are considered to create a list of

Path

files, so

files()

is probably the best solution here.
