Match files using the patterns the shell uses, like stars and stuff. This is a glob implementation in JavaScript for command line use.

Install globally

If you require() this module, it will return just glob.

npm i glob-cmd -g

Help

A list of all currently possible options.

glob --help
  Usage: glob [options]

  Options:

    -V, --version                output the version number
    -j, --json                   JSON encode matches (default separates by newline)
    -s, --delimiter [separator]  Separate matches by delimiter (default separator is newline)
    -o, --output [filename]      Write to file (write to stdout by default)
    -c, --cwd [directory]        The current working directory in which to search
    -n, --nodir                  Do not match directories, only files (Note: to match only directories, simply put a / at the end of the pattern)
    -h, --help                   output usage information

Examples

Simplest

List all .js files in current directory.

Command:

glob *.js

Output:

index.js
utils.js
cli.js

Command:

glob --json *.mp3

[

   "12. SCREW IT.mp3"
]

Recursive

Command:

glob **/*.js

Outut:

dist/Codeground.js
dist/Codeground.min.js
dist/examples/es5/demo/script.js
dist/examples/es5/script.js
dist/examples/es6/demo/script.js
dist/examples/es6/script.js
dist/examples/fullscreen/demo/script.js
dist/examples/fullscreen/script.js
gulpfile.js
src/Codeground.js
test/test.js

Delimiter (separator)

Use a delimiter to separate matches. In this case, a semi colon.

Command:

glob --delimiter ; *.mp3

Output:

01. SIR DRUMSALOT.mp3;02. BRAVE.mp3;03. WAKE UP FOOL.mp3;04. THE FEVER IS GROWING.mp3;05. THE LIFE FOR ME.mp3;06. MAKE BELIEVE.mp3;07. FUNNY KIND OF LOVE.mp3;08. WITHOUT YOU.mp3;09. RUNNING.mp3;10. REALITY.mp3;11. IT WILL NOT END.mp3;12. SCREW IT.mp3;
