anymatch [](https://travis-ci.org/micromatch/anymatch) [](https://coveralls.io/r/micromatch/anymatch?branch=master)
|
|
|
======
|
|
|
Javascript module to match a string against a regular expression, glob, string,
|
|
|
or function that takes the string as an argument and returns a truthy or falsy
|
|
|
value. The matcher can also be an array of any or all of these. Useful for
|
|
|
allowing a very flexible user-defined config to define things like file paths.
|
|
|
|
|
|
__Note: This module has Bash-parity, please be aware that Windows-style backslashes are not supported as separators. See https://github.com/micromatch/micromatch#backslashes for more information.__

Usage
|
|
|
-----
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
npm install anymatch
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### anymatch(matchers, testString, [returnIndex], [options])
|
|
|
* __matchers__: (_Array|String|RegExp|Function_)
|
|
|
String to be directly matched, string with glob patterns, regular expression
|
|
|
test, function that takes the testString as an argument and returns a truthy
|
|
|
value if it should be matched, or an array of any number and mix of these types.
|
|
|
* __testString__: (_String|Array_) The string to test against the matchers. If
|
|
|
passed as an array, the first element of the array will be used as the
|
|
|
`testString` for non-function matchers, while the entire array will be applied
|
|
|
as the arguments for function matchers.
|
|
|
* __options__: (_Object_ [optional]_) Any of the [picomatch](https://github.com/micromatch/picomatch#options) options.
|
|
|
* __returnIndex__: (_Boolean [optional]_) If true, return the array index of
|
|
|
the first matcher that that testString matched, or -1 if no match, instead of a
|
|
|
boolean result.

|
|
|
```js
|
|
|
const anymatch = require('anymatch');
|
|
|
|
|
|
const matchers = [ 'path/to/file.js', 'path/anyjs/**/*.js', /foo.js$/, string => string.includes('bar') && string.length > 10 ] ;
|
|
|
|
|
|
anymatch(matchers, 'path/to/file.js'); // true
|
|
|
anymatch(matchers, 'path/anyjs/baz.js'); // true
|
|
|
anymatch(matchers, 'path/to/foo.js'); // true
|
|
|
anymatch(matchers, 'path/to/bar.js'); // true
|
|
|
anymatch(matchers, 'bar.js'); // false
|
|
|
|
|
|
// returnIndex = true
|
|
|
anymatch(matchers, 'foo.js', {returnIndex: true}); // 2
|
|
|
anymatch(matchers, 'path/anyjs/foo.js', {returnIndex: true}); // 1

|
|

|
|
|
anymatch('node_modules', 'node_modules/somelib/index.js'); // false
|
|
|
anymatch('node_modules/**', 'node_modules/somelib/index.js'); // true
|
|
|
anymatch('node_modules/**', '/absolute/path/to/node_modules/somelib/index.js'); // false
|
|
|
anymatch('**/node_modules/**', '/absolute/path/to/node_modules/somelib/index.js'); // true
|
|
|
|
|
|
const matcher = anymatch(matchers);
|
|
|
['foo.js', 'bar.js'].filter(matcher); // [ 'foo.js' ]
|
|
|

```
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### anymatch(matchers)
|
|
|
You can also pass in only your matcher(s) to get a curried function that has
|
|
|
already been bound to the provided matching criteria. This can be used as an
|
|
|
`Array#filter` callback.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
|
var matcher = anymatch(matchers);
|
|
|
|
|
|
matcher('path/to/file.js'); // true
|
|
|
matcher('path/anyjs/baz.js', true); // 1
|
|
|
|
|
|
['foo.js', 'bar.js'].filter(matcher); // ['foo.js']
|
|
|
```

Changelog
|
|
|
----------
|
|
|
[See release notes page on GitHub](https://github.com/micromatch/anymatch/releases)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- **v3.0:** Removed `startIndex` and `endIndex` arguments. Node 8.x-only.
|
|
|
- **v2.0:** [micromatch](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/micromatch) moves away from minimatch-parity and inline with Bash. This includes handling backslashes differently (see https://github.com/micromatch/micromatch#backslashes for more information).
|
|
|
- **v1.2:** anymatch uses [micromatch](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/micromatch)
|
|
|
for glob pattern matching. Issues with glob pattern matching should be
|
|
|
reported directly to the [micromatch issue tracker](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/micromatch/issues).
