> Extended glob support for JavaScript. Adds (almost) the expressive power of regular expressions to glob patterns.

Please consider following this project's author, [Jon Schlinkert](https://github.com/jonschlinkert), and consider starring the project to show your :heart: and support.

## Install

Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):

```sh
$ npm install --save extglob
```

* Convert an extglob string to a regex-compatible string.
* More complete (and correct) support than [minimatch](https://github.com/isaacs/minimatch) (minimatch fails a large percentage of the extglob tests)
* Handles [negation patterns](#extglob-patterns)
* Handles [nested patterns](#extglob-patterns)
* Organized code base, easy to maintain and make changes when edge cases arise
* As you can see by the [benchmarks](#benchmarks), extglob doesn't pay with speed for it's completeness, accuracy and quality.

**Heads up!**: This library only supports extglobs, to handle full glob patterns and other extended globbing features use [micromatch](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/micromatch) instead.

## Usage

The main export is a function that takes a string and options, and returns an object with the parsed AST and the compiled `.output`, which is a regex-compatible string that can be used for matching.

```js
var extglob = require('extglob');
console.log(extglob('!(xyz)*.js'));
```

## Extglob cheatsheet

Extended globbing patterns can be defined as follows (as described by the [bash man page](https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Pattern-Matching.html)):

| **pattern** | **regex equivalent** | **description** | 
| --- | --- | --- |
| `?(pattern-list)` | `(...|...)?` | Matches zero or one occurrence of the given pattern(s) |
| `*(pattern-list)` | `(...|...)*` | Matches zero or more occurrences of the given pattern(s) |
| `+(pattern-list)` | `(...|...)+` | Matches one or more occurrences of the given pattern(s) |
| `@(pattern-list)` | `(...|...)` <sup class="footnote-ref"><a href="#fn1" id="fnref1">[1]</a></sup> | Matches one of the given pattern(s) |
| `!(pattern-list)` | N/A | Matches anything except one of the given pattern(s) |

## API

### [extglob](index.js#L36)

Convert the given `extglob` pattern into a regex-compatible string. Returns an object with the compiled result and the parsed AST.

**Params**

* `pattern` **{String}**
* `options` **{Object}**
* `returns` **{String}**

**Example**

```js
var extglob = require('extglob');
console.log(extglob('*.!(*a)'));
//=> '(?!\\.)[^/]*?\\.(?!(?!\\.)[^/]*?a\\b).*?'
```

### [.match](index.js#L56)

Takes an array of strings and an extglob pattern and returns a new array that contains only the strings that match the pattern.

**Params**

* `list` **{Array}**: Array of strings to match
* `pattern` **{String}**: Extglob pattern
* `options` **{Object}**
* `returns` **{Array}**: Returns an array of matches

**Example**

```js
var extglob = require('extglob');
console.log(extglob.match(['a.a', 'a.b', 'a.c'], '*.!(*a)'));
//=> ['a.b', 'a.c']
```

### [.isMatch](index.js#L111)

Returns true if the specified `string` matches the given extglob `pattern`.

**Params**

* `string` **{String}**: String to match
* `pattern` **{String}**: Extglob pattern
* `options` **{String}**
* `returns` **{Boolean}**

**Example**

```js
var extglob = require('extglob');

console.log(extglob.isMatch('a.a', '*.!(*a)'));
//=> false
console.log(extglob.isMatch('a.b', '*.!(*a)'));
//=> true
```

### [.contains](index.js#L150)

Returns true if the given `string` contains the given pattern. Similar to `.isMatch` but the pattern can match any part of the string.

**Params**

* `str` **{String}**: The string to match.
* `pattern` **{String}**: Glob pattern to use for matching.
* `options` **{Object}**
* `returns` **{Boolean}**: Returns true if the patter matches any part of `str`.

**Example**

```js
var extglob = require('extglob');
console.log(extglob.contains('aa/bb/cc', '*b'));
//=> true
console.log(extglob.contains('aa/bb/cc', '*d'));
//=> false
```

### [.matcher](index.js#L184)

Takes an extglob pattern and returns a matcher function. The returned function takes the string to match as its only argument.

**Params**

* `pattern` **{String}**: Extglob pattern
* `options` **{String}**
* `returns` **{Boolean}**

**Example**

```js
var extglob = require('extglob');
var isMatch = extglob.matcher('*.!(*a)');

console.log(isMatch('a.a'));
//=> false
console.log(isMatch('a.b'));
//=> true
```

### [.create](index.js#L214)

Convert the given `extglob` pattern into a regex-compatible string. Returns an object with the compiled result and the parsed AST.

**Params**

* `str` **{String}**
* `options` **{Object}**
* `returns` **{String}**

**Example**

```js
var extglob = require('extglob');
console.log(extglob.create('*.!(*a)').output);
//=> '(?!\\.)[^/]*?\\.(?!(?!\\.)[^/]*?a\\b).*?'
```

### [.capture](index.js#L248)

Returns an array of matches captured by `pattern` in `string`, or `null` if the pattern did not match.

**Params**

* `pattern` **{String}**: Glob pattern to use for matching.
* `string` **{String}**: String to match
* `options` **{Object}**: See available [options](#options) for changing how matches are performed
* `returns` **{Boolean}**: Returns an array of captures if the string matches the glob pattern, otherwise `null`.

**Example**

```js
var extglob = require('extglob');
extglob.capture(pattern, string[, options]);

console.log(extglob.capture('test/*.js', 'test/foo.js'));
//=> ['foo']
console.log(extglob.capture('test/*.js', 'foo/bar.css'));
//=> null
```

### [.makeRe](index.js#L281)

Create a regular expression from the given `pattern` and `options`.

**Params**

* `pattern` **{String}**: The pattern to convert to regex.
* `options` **{Object}**
* `returns` **{RegExp}**

**Example**

```js
var extglob = require('extglob');
var re = extglob.makeRe('*.!(*a)');
console.log(re);
//=> /^[^\/]*?\.(?![^\/]*?a)[^\/]*?$/
```

## Options

Available options are based on the options from Bash (and the option names used in bash).

### options.nullglob

**Type**: `boolean`

**Default**: `undefined`

When enabled, the pattern itself will be returned when no matches are found.

### options.nonull

Alias for [options.nullglob](#optionsnullglob), included for parity with minimatch.

### options.cache

**Type**: `boolean`

**Default**: `undefined`

Functions are memoized based on the given glob patterns and options. Disable memoization by setting `options.cache` to false.

### options.failglob

**Type**: `boolean`

**Default**: `undefined`

Throw an error is no matches are found.

## Differences from Bash

This library has complete parity with Bash 4.3 with only a couple of minor differences.

* In some cases Bash returns true if the given string "contains" the pattern, whereas this library returns true if the string is an exact match for the pattern. You can relax this by setting `options.contains` to true.
* This library is more accurate than Bash and thus does not fail some of the tests that Bash 4.3 still lists as failing in their unit tests
