Duplicate of https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=72095

To be clear, the standard C library used on Alpine which is called Musl does not support GLOB_BRACE. There is no way for PHP to 'support' something that does not exist on the platform that you're running PHP on.

I suggest using the workaround in the other ticket, or not using Alpine if you need GLOB_BRACE support.

Unmarking as duplicate, as the other bug is actually about the doc editor code...but it's still not something that can be fixed in PHP. You need to persuade the people who maintain Musl to add it.

Sorry, I just realised the other ticket doesn't contain a work around. You'd need to expand it yourself....

"They are used during expansion of the brace expression of the deeper level. The example below shows this

glob ("{foo/{,bar,biz},baz}", GLOB_BRACE, NULL, &result) 

is equivalent to the sequence

glob ("foo/", GLOB_BRACE, NULL, &result)
glob ("foo/bar", GLOB_BRACE|GLOB_APPEND, NULL, &result)
glob ("foo/biz", GLOB_BRACE|GLOB_APPEND, NULL, &result)
glob ("baz", GLOB_BRACE|GLOB_APPEND, NULL, &result)"

There's a fallback method in zendframework - which may or may not work https://github.com/zendframework/zend-stdlib/blob/6d965efcce81ee60e2b425792f1cd3f27aed82d9/src/Glob.php#L97-L168
