Each item in the row + corresponds to a single path-part. For example, the pattern + `{a,b/c}/d` would expand to a set of patterns like: + + [ [ a, d ] + , [ b, c, d ] ] + + If a portion of the pattern doesn't have any "magic" in it + (that is, it's something like `"foo"` rather than `fo*o?`), then it + will be left as a string rather than converted to a regular + expression. + +* `regexp` Created by the `makeRe` method. A single regular expression + expressing the entire pattern. This is useful in cases where you wish + to use the pattern somewhat like `fnmatch(3)` with `FNM_PATH` enabled. +* `negate` True if the pattern is negated. +* `comment` True if the pattern is a comment. +* `empty` True if the pattern is `""`. + +### Methods + +* `makeRe` Generate the `regexp` member if necessary, and return it. + Will return `false` if the pattern is invalid. +* `match(fname)` Return true if the filename matches the pattern, or + false otherwise. +* `matchOne(fileArray, patternArray, partial)` Take a `/`-split + filename, and match it against a single row in the `regExpSet`. This + method is mainly for internal use, but is exposed so that it can be + used by a glob-walker that needs to avoid excessive filesystem calls. + +All other methods are internal, and will be called as necessary. + +### minimatch(path, pattern, options) + +Main export. Tests a path against the pattern using the options. + +```javascript +var isJS = minimatch(file, "*.js", { matchBase: true }) +``` + +### minimatch.filter(pattern, options) + +Returns a function that tests its +supplied argument, suitable for use with `Array.filter`. Example: + +```javascript +var javascripts = fileList.filter(minimatch.filter("*.js", {matchBase: true})) +``` + +### minimatch.match(list, pattern, options) + +Match against the list of +files, in the style of fnmatch or glob. If nothing is matched, and +options.nonull is set, then return a list containing the pattern itself. + +```javascript +var javascripts = minimatch.match(fileList, "*.js", {matchBase: true})) +``` + +### minimatch.makeRe(pattern, options) + +Make a regular expression object from the pattern. + +## Options + +All options are `false` by default. + +### debug + +Dump a ton of stuff to stderr. + +### nobrace + +Do not expand `{a,b}` and `{1..3}` brace sets. + +### noglobstar + +Disable `**` matching against multiple folder names. + +### dot + +Allow patterns to match filenames starting with a period, even if +the pattern does not explicitly have a period in that spot. + +Note that by default, `a/**/b` will **not** match `a/.d/b`, unless `dot` +is set. + +### noext + +Disable "extglob" style patterns like `+(a|b)`. + +### nocase + +Perform a case-insensitive match. + +### nonull + +When a match is not found by `minimatch.match`, return a list containing +the pattern itself if this option is set. When not set, an empty list +is returned if there are no matches. + +### matchBase + +If set, then patterns without slashes will be matched +against the basename of the path if it contains slashes. For example, +`a?b` would match the path `/xyz/123/acb`, but not `/xyz/acb/123`. + +### nocomment + +Suppress the behavior of treating `#` at the start of a pattern as a +comment. + +### nonegate + +Suppress the behavior of treating a leading `!` character as negation. + +### flipNegate + +Returns from negate expressions the same as if they were not negated. +(Ie, true on a hit, false on a miss.) + + +## Comparisons to other fnmatch/glob implementations + +While strict compliance with the existing standards is a worthwhile +goal, some discrepancies exist between minimatch and other +implementations, and are intentional. + +If the pattern starts with a `!` character, then it is negated. Set the +`nonegate` flag to suppress this behavior, and treat leading `!` +characters normally. This is perhaps relevant if you wish to start the +pattern with a negative extglob pattern like `!(a|B)`. Multiple `!` +characters at the start of a pattern will negate the pattern multiple +times. + +If a pattern starts with `#`, then it is treated as a comment, and +will not match anything. Use `\#` to match a literal `#` at the +start of a line, or set the `nocomment` flag to suppress this behavior. + +The double-star character `**` is supported by default, unless the +`noglobstar` flag is set. This is supported in the manner of bsdglob +and bash 4.1, where `**` only has special significance if it is the only +thing in a path part. That is, `a/**/b` will match `a/x/y/b`, but +`a/**b` will not. + +If an escaped pattern has no matches, and the `nonull` flag is set, +then minimatch.match returns the pattern as-provided, rather than +interpreting the character escapes. For example, +`minimatch.match([], "\\*a\\?")` will return `"\\*a\\?"` rather than +`"*a?"`. This is akin to setting the `nullglob` option in bash, except +that it does not resolve escaped pattern characters. + +If brace expansion is not disabled, then it is performed before any +other interpretation of the glob pattern. Thus, a pattern like +`+(a|{b),c)}`, which would not be valid in bash or zsh, is expanded +**first** into the set of `+(a|b)` and `+(a|c)`, and those patterns are +checked for validity. Since those two are valid, matching proceeds. |
