I'm trying to use something like File::Find::Rule to get rid of some code that has the UNIX find command in it.

Working code:

sub AllInFilesystemResults {
    my ($class)          = shift;
    my ($collectArchive) = shift;
    my @searchLocations;

    if ( $collectArchive =~ /^archive/ ) {
        @searchLocations = "/vol/$collectArchive/prod/*";
    }
    else {
        @searchLocations = (
           "/vol/archive*/prod/*/$collectArchive/*",
           "/vol/archive*/prod/system/archive/$collectArchive/*"
        );
    }

    my %listOfFilesDatabase;

    foreach my $searchLocation (@searchLocations) {
        my @archivesInFilesystem =
         `find $searchLocation -type f 2> /dev/null 
                    | grep -v \"\/archive\/archive\/\"`;
        chomp @archivesInFilesystem;
        $searchLocation = qr/$searchLocation/;

        foreach my $locationFS (@archivesInFilesystem) {
            
            print "$locationFS\n";
            utf8::decode($locationFS);
            $listOfFilesDatabase{$locationFS}++;
        }
    }
    return %listOfFilesDatabase;
}

I would like @searchLocations to be regex that then gets searched through

    if ( $collectArchive =~ /^archive/ ) {
        @searchLocations = "/vol/$collectArchive/prod/.+";
    }
    else {
        @searchLocations = (
           "/vol/archive\\d{2}/prod/.+/$collectArchive/.+",
           "/vol/archive\\d{2}/prod/system/archive/$collectArchive/.+"
        );
    }
    my %listOfFilesDatabase;

    foreach my $searchLocation (@searchLocations) {
        $searchLocations = qw/$searchLocation/;
