To search for the files of specific FileType, use:

FileTypeIndex.getFiles(@NotNull FileType fileType, @NotNull GlobalSearchScope scope)

To search and process these files, use:

FileTypeIndex.processFiles(@NotNull FileType fileType, @NotNull Processor<? super VirtualFile> processor, @NotNull GlobalSearchScope scope)
