micromatch

Glob matching for javascript/node.js. A drop-in replacement and faster alternative to minimatch and multimatch.

Micromatch supports all of the same matching features as minimatch and multimatch.

mm() is the same as multimatch()
mm.match() is the same as minimatch.match()
use mm.isMatch() instead of minimatch()

Install

Install with npm:

$ npm install --save micromatch

Start matching!

var mm = require('micromatch');
console.log(mm(['']))

Features

Drop-in replacement for minimatch and multimatch
Built-in support for multiple glob patterns, like ['foo/*.js', '!bar.js']
Brace Expansion (foo/bar-{1..5}.md, one/{two,three}/four.md)
Typical glob patterns, like **/*, a/b/*.js, or ['foo/*.js', '!bar.js']
Methods like .isMatch(), .contains() and .any()

Extended globbing features:

Logical OR (foo/bar/(abc|xyz).js)
Regex character classes (foo/bar/baz-[1-5].js)
POSIX bracket expressions (**/:alpha:][:digit:/)
extglobs (**/+(x|y), !(a|b), etc).

You can combine these to create whatever matching patterns you need.

Example

// double-negation!
mm(['fa', 'fb', 'f', 'fo'], '!(f!(o))');
//=> ['fo']

Why switch to micromatch?

Native support for multiple glob patterns, no need for wrappers like multimatch
10-55x faster and more performant than minimatch and multimatch. This is achieved through a combination of caching and regex optimization strategies, a fundamentally different approach than minimatch.
More extensive support for the Bash 4.3 specification
More complete extglob support
Extensive unit tests (approx. 1,300 tests). Minimatch fails many of the tests.

Switch from minimatch

Use mm.isMatch() instead of minimatch():

mm.isMatch('foo', 'b*');
//=> false

Use mm.match() instead of minimatch.match():

mm.match(['foo', 'bar'], 'b*');
//=> 'bar'

Switch from multimatch

Same signature:

mm(['foo', 'bar', 'baz'], ['f*', '*z']);
//=> ['foo', 'baz']

Usage

Add micromatch to your node.js project:

var mm = require('micromatch');

Signature

mm(array_of_strings, glob_patterns[, options]);

Example

mm(['foo', 'bar', 'baz'], 'b*');
//=> ['bar', 'baz']

Usage examples

Brace expansion

Match files with .js or .txt extensions.

mm(['a.js', 'b.md', 'c.txt'], '*.{js,txt}');
//=> ['a.js', 'c.txt']

Extglobs

Match anything except for files with the .md extension.

mm(files, '**/*.!(md)');

//=> ['a.js', 'c.txt']

Multiple patterns

Match using an array of patterns.

mm(['a.md', 'b.js', 'c.txt', 'd.json'], ['*.md', '*.txt']);
//=> ['a.md', 'c.txt']

Negation patterns:

Behavior is designed to be what users would expect, based on conventions that are already well-established.

minimatch behavior is used when the pattern is a string, so patterns are inclusive by default.
multimatch behavior is used when an array of patterns is passed, so patterns are exclusive by default.

mm(['a.js', 'b.md', 'c.txt'], '!*.{js,txt}');
//=> ['b.md']

mm(['a.md', 'b.js', 'c.txt', 'd.json'], ['*.*', '!*.{js,txt}']);
//=> ['a.md', 'd.json']

API methods

var mm = require('micromatch');

.match

mm.match(array, globString);

Return an array of files that match the given glob pattern. Useful if you only need to use a single glob pattern.

Example

mm.match(['ab', 'a/b', 'bb', 'b/c'], '?b');
//=> ['ab', 'bb']

mm.match(['ab', 'a/b', 'bb', 'b/c'], '*/b');
//=> ['a/b']

.isMatch

mm.isMatch(filepath, globString);

Returns true if a file path matches the given glob pattern.

Example

mm.isMatch('.verb.md', '*.md');
//=> false

mm.isMatch('.verb.md', '*.md', {dot: true});
//=> true

.contains

Returns true if any part of a file path matches the given glob pattern. Think of this is "has path" versus "is path".

Example

.isMatch() would return false for both of the following:

mm.contains('a/b/c', 'a/b');
//=> true

mm.contains('a/b/c', 'a/*');
//=> true

.matcher

Returns a function for matching using the supplied pattern. e.g. create your own "matcher". The advantage of this method is that the pattern can be compiled outside of a loop.

Pattern

Can be any of the following:

glob/string
regex
function

Example

var isMatch = mm.matcher('*.md');
var files = [];

['a.md', 'b.txt', 'c.md'].forEach(function(fp) {
  if (isMatch(fp)) {
    files.push(fp);
  }
});

.filter

Returns a function that can be passed to Array#filter().

Params

patterns {String|Array}:

Examples

Single glob:

var fn = mm.filter('*.md');
['a.js', 'b.txt', 'c.md'].filter(fn);
//=> ['c.md']

var fn = mm.filter('[a-c]');
['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'].filter(fn);
//=> ['a', 'b', 'c']

Array of glob patterns:

var arr = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15];

var fn = mm.filter(['{1..10}', '![7-9]', '!{3..4}']);
arr.filter(fn);
//=> [1, 2, 5, 6, 10]

(Internally this function generates the matching function by using the matcher method. You can use the matcher method directly to create your own filter function)

.any

Returns true if a file path matches any of the given patterns.

mm.any(filepath, patterns, options);

Params

filepath {String}: The file path to test.
patterns {String|Array}: One or more glob patterns
options: {Object}: options to pass to the .matcher() method.

Example

mm.any('abc', ['!*z']);
//=> true
mm.any('abc', ['a*', 'z*']);
//=> true
mm.any('abc', 'a*');
//=> true
mm.any('abc', ['z*']);
//=> false

.expand

Returns an object with a regex-compatible string and tokens.

mm.expand('*.js');

// when `track` is enabled (for debugging), the `history` array is used
// to record each mutation to the glob pattern as it's converted to regex
{ options: { track: false, dot: undefined, makeRe: true, negated: false },
  pattern: '(.*\\/|^)bar\\/(?:(?!(?:^|\\/)\\.).)*?',
  history: [],
  tokens:
   { path:
      { whole: '**/bar/**',
        dirname: '**/bar/',
        filename: '**',
        basename: '**',
        extname: '',
        ext: '' },
     is:
      { glob: true,
        negated: false,
        globstar: true,
        dotfile: false,
        dotdir: false },
     match: {},
     original: '**/bar/**',
     pattern: '**/bar/**',
     base: '' } }

.makeRe

Create a regular expression for matching file paths based on the given pattern:

mm.makeRe('*.js');
//=> /^(?:(?!\.)(?=.)[^/]*?\.js)$/

Options

options.unixify

Normalize slashes in file paths and glob patterns to forward slashes.

Type: {Boolean}

Default: undefined on non-windows, true on windows.

options.dot

Match dotfiles. Same behavior as minimatch.

Type: {Boolean}

Default: false

options.unescape

Unescape slashes in glob patterns. Use cautiously, especially on windows.

Type: {Boolean}

Default: undefined

Example

mm.isMatch('abc', '\\a\\b\\c', {unescape: true});
//=> true

options.nodupes

Remove duplicate elements from the result array.

Type: {Boolean}

Default: undefined

Example

Example of using the unescape and nodupes options together:

mm.match(['abc', '\\a\\b\\c'], '\\a\\b\\c', {unescape: true});
//=> ['abc', 'abc']

mm.match(['abc', '\\a\\b\\c'], '\\a\\b\\c', {unescape: true, nodupes: true});
//=> ['abc']

options.matchBase

Allow glob patterns without slashes to match a file path based on its basename. . Same behavior as minimatch.

Type: {Boolean}

Default: false

Example

mm(['a/b.js', 'a/c.md'], '*.js');
//=> []

mm(['a/b.js', 'a/c.md'], '*.js', {matchBase: true});
//=> ['a/b.js']

options.nobraces

Don't expand braces in glob patterns. Same behavior as minimatch nobrace.

Type: {Boolean}

Default: undefined

See braces for more information about extended brace expansion.

options.nobrackets

Don't expand POSIX bracket expressions.

Type: {Boolean}

Default: undefined

See expand-brackets for more information about extended bracket expressions.

options.noextglob

Don't expand extended globs.

Type: {Boolean}

Default: undefined

See extglob for more information about extended globs.

options.nocase

Use a case-insensitive regex for matching files. Same behavior as minimatch.

Type: {Boolean}

Default: false

options.nonegate

Disallow negation (!) patterns.

Type: {Boolean}

Default: false

options.nonull

If true, when no matches are found the actual (array-ified) glob pattern is returned instead of an empty array. Same behavior as minimatch.

Type: {Boolean}

Default: false

options.cache

Cache the platform (e.g. win32) to prevent this from being looked up for every filepath.

Type: {Boolean}

Default: true

Other features

Micromatch also supports the following.

Extended globbing

extglobs

Extended globbing, as described by the bash man page:

| pattern | regex equivalent | description | | --- | --- | --- | | ?(pattern-list) | (... | ...)? | Matches zero or one occurrence of the given patterns | | *(pattern-list) | (... | ...)* | Matches zero or more occurrences of the given patterns | | +(pattern-list) | (... | ...)+ | Matches one or more occurrences of the given patterns | | @(pattern-list) | (... | ...) ^* | Matches one of the given patterns | | !(pattern-list) | N/A | Matches anything except one of the given patterns |

^* @ isn't a RegEx character.

See extglob for more information about extended globs.

brace expansion

In simple cases, brace expansion appears to work the same way as the logical OR operator. For example, (a|b) will achieve the same result as {a,b}.

Here are some powerful features unique to brace expansion (versus character classes):

range expansion: a{1..3}b/*.js expands to: ['a1b/*.js', 'a2b/*.js', 'a3b/*.js']
nesting: a{c,{d,e}}b/*.js expands to: ['acb/*.js', 'adb/*.js', 'aeb/*.js']

Visit braces to ask questions and create an issue related to brace-expansion, or to see the full range of features and options related to brace expansion.

regex character classes

With the exception of brace expansion ({a,b}, {1..5}, etc), most of the special characters convert directly to regex, so you can expect them to follow the same rules and produce the same results as regex.

For example, given the list: ['a.js', 'b.js', 'c.js', 'd.js', 'E.js']:

[ac].js: matches both a and c, returning ['a.js', 'c.js']
[b-d].js: matches from b to d, returning ['b.js', 'c.js', 'd.js']
[b-d].js: matches from b to d, returning ['b.js', 'c.js', 'd.js']
a/[A-Z].js: matches and uppercase letter, returning ['a/E.md']

Learn about regex character classes.

regex groups

Given ['a.js', 'b.js', 'c.js', 'd.js', 'E.js']:

(a|c).js: would match either a or c, returning ['a.js', 'c.js']
(b|d).js: would match either b or d, returning ['b.js', 'd.js']
(b|[A-Z]).js: would match either b or an uppercase letter, returning ['b.js', 'E.js']

As with regex, parenthese can be nested, so patterns like ((a|b)|c)/b will work. But it might be easier to achieve your goal using brace expansion.

POSIX bracket expressions

Example

mm.isMatch('a1', ':alpha:][:digit:');
//=> true

See expand-brackets for more information about extended bracket expressions.

Notes

Whenever possible parsing behavior for patterns is based on globbing specifications in Bash 4.3. Patterns that aren't described by Bash follow wildmatch spec (used by git).
