Tiny Glob

tiny glob

Tiny and extremely fast library to match files and folders using glob patterns.

"Globs" is the common name for a specific type of pattern used to match files and folders. It's the patterns you type when you do stuff like `ls *.js` in your shell or put `src/*` in a `.gitignore` file. When used to match filenames, it's sometimes called a "wildcard". ## Install ``` npm install tiny-glob ``` ## Core Features - 🔥 **extremely fast:** ~350% faster than [node-glob](https://github.com/isaacs/node-glob) and ~230% faster than [fast-glob](https://github.com/mrmlnc/fast-glob) - 💪 **powerful:** supports advanced globbing patterns (`ExtGlob`) - 📦 **tiny**: only ~45 LOC with 2 small dependencies - 👫 **friendly**: simple and easy to use api - 🎭 **cross-platform**: supports both unix and windows ## Usage ```js const glob = require('tiny-glob'); (async function(){ let files = await glob('src/*/*.{js,md}'); // => [ ... ] array of matching files })(); ``` ## API ### glob(str, options) Type: `function`
Returns: `Array` Return array of matching files and folders This function is `async` and returns a promise. #### str Type: `String` The glob pattern to match against. > **OBS**: Please only use forward-slashes in glob expressions. Even on [windows](#windows) #### options.cwd Type: `String`
Default: `'.'` Change default working directory. #### options.dot Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false` Allow patterns to match filenames or directories that begin with a period (`.`). #### options.absolute Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false` Return matches as absolute paths. #### options.filesOnly Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false` Skip directories and return matched files only. #### options.flush Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false` Flush the internal cache object. ## Windows Though Windows may use `/`, `\`, or `\\` as path separators, you can **only** use forward-slashes (`/`) when specifying glob expressions. Any back-slashes (`\`) will be interpreted as escape characters instead of path separators. This is common across many glob-based modules; see [`node-glob`](https://github.com/isaacs/node-glob#windows) for corroboration. ## Benchmarks ``` glob x 13,405 ops/sec ±1.80% (85 runs sampled) fast-glob x 25,745 ops/sec ±2.76% (59 runs sampled) tiny-glob x 102,658 ops/sec ±0.79% (91 runs sampled) Fastest is tiny-glob ┌───────────┬─────────────────────────┬─────────────┬────────────────┐ │ Name │ Mean time │ Ops/sec │ Diff │ ├───────────┼─────────────────────────┼─────────────┼────────────────┤ │ glob │ 0.00007459990597268128 │ 13,404.843 │ N/A │ ├───────────┼─────────────────────────┼─────────────┼────────────────┤ │ fast-glob │ 0.000038842529587611705 │ 25,744.976 │ 92.06% faster │ ├───────────┼─────────────────────────┼─────────────┼────────────────┤ │ tiny-glob │ 0.00000974110141018254 │ 102,657.796 │ 298.75% faster │ └───────────┴─────────────────────────┴─────────────┴────────────────┘ ``` ## Advanced Globbing Learn more about advanced globbing - [Greg's Wiki](https://mywiki.wooledge.org/glob) - [Bash Extended Globbing](https://www.linuxjournal.com/content/bash-extended-globbing) ## License MIT © [Terkel Gjervig](https://terkel.com)
