deglob

Take a list of glob patterns and return an array of file locations, respecting .gitignore and allowing for ignore patterns via package.json.

Giant swaths of this code were extracted from standard. It seems useful outside of that tool, so I've attempted to extract it! :)

Install

npm install --save deglob

Usage

var deglob = require('deglob')

deglob(['**/*.js'], function(err, files) {
  files.forEach(function(file) {
    console.log('found file ' + file)
  })
})

// pass in some options to customize!

var path = require('path')
var opts = {
  cwd: path.join(__dirname, 'someDir'),
  useGitIgnore: false,
  usePackageJson: false
}

deglob(['**/*.js'], opts, function(err, files) {
  files.forEach(function(file) {
    console.log('found file ' + file)
  })
})

Ignoring files in package.json

deglob will look for a package.json file by default and use any ignore patterns defined.

To define patterns in package.json add somthing like this:

"config": {
  "ignore": ['**/*.bad']
}

If you do not fancy the config key, provide a different one using the configKey option.
