+glob-parent [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/es128/glob-parent.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/es128/glob-parent) [![Coverage Status](https://img.shields.io/coveralls/es128/glob-parent.svg)](https://coveralls.io/r/es128/glob-parent?branch=master)
+======
+Javascript module to extract the non-magic parent path from a glob string.
+

+[![NPM](https://nodei.co/npm-dl/glob-parent.png?height=3&months=9)](https://nodei.co/npm-dl/glob-parent/)
+
+Usage
+-----
+```sh
+npm install glob-parent --save
+```
+
+**Examples**
+
+```js
+var globParent = require('glob-parent');
+
+globParent('path/to/*.js'); // 'path/to'
+globParent('/root/path/to/*.js'); // '/root/path/to'
+globParent('/*.js'); // '/'
+globParent('*.js'); // '.'
+globParent('**/*.js'); // '.'
+globParent('path/{to,from}'); // 'path'
+globParent('path/!(to|from)'); // 'path'
+globParent('path/?(to|from)'); // 'path'
+globParent('path/+(to|from)'); // 'path'
+globParent('path/*(to|from)'); // 'path'
+globParent('path/@(to|from)'); // 'path'
+globParent('path/**/*'); // 'path'
+
+// if provided a non-glob path, returns the nearest dir
+globParent('path/foo/bar.js'); // 'path/foo'
+globParent('path/foo/'); // 'path/foo'
+globParent('path/foo'); // 'path' (see issue #3 for details)
+```
+
+## Escaping
+
+The following characters have special significance in glob patterns and must be escaped if you want them to be treated as regular path characters:
+
+- `?` (question mark)
+- `*` (star)
+- `|` (pipe)
+- `(` (opening parenthesis)
+- `)` (closing parenthesis)
+- `{` (opening curly brace)
+- `}` (closing curly brace)
+- `[` (opening bracket)
+- `]` (closing bracket)
+
+**Example**
+
+```js
+globParent('foo/[bar]/') // 'foo'
+globParent('foo/\\[bar]/') // 'foo/[bar]'
+```
+
+## Limitations
+
+#### Braces & Brackets
+This library attempts a quick and imperfect method of determining which path
+parts have glob magic without fully parsing/lexing the pattern. There are some
+advanced use cases that can trip it up, such as nested braces where the outer
+pair is escaped and the inner one contains a path separator. If you find
+yourself in the unlikely circumstance of being affected by this or need to
+ensure higher-fidelity glob handling in your library, it is recommended that you
+pre-process your input with [expand-braces] and/or [expand-brackets].
+
+#### Windows
+Backslashes are not valid path separators for globs. If a path with backslashes
+is provided anyway, for simple cases, glob-parent will replace the path
+separator for you and return the non-glob parent path (now with
+forward-slashes, which are still valid as Windows path separators).
+
+This cannot be used in conjunction with escape characters.
+
+```js
+// BAD
+globParent('C:\\Program Files \\(x86\\)\\*.ext') // 'C:/Program Files /(x86/)'
+
+// GOOD
+globParent('C:/Program Files\\(x86\\)/*.ext') // 'C:/Program Files (x86)'
+```
+
+If you are using escape characters for a pattern without path parts (i.e.
+relative to `cwd`), prefix with `./` to avoid confusing glob-parent.
+
+```js
+// BAD
+globParent('foo \\[bar]') // 'foo '
+globParent('foo \\[bar]*') // 'foo '
+
+// GOOD
+globParent('./foo \\[bar]') // 'foo [bar]'
+globParent('./foo \\[bar]*') // '.'
+```
