gulp-finder

Directory Glob String plugin finder for gulp

Features

• Gulp Finder uses fs.extra and recursively searches through the given directory, and creates an object that mirrors your directory structure.
• Each directory within the Object now has a bunch of methods, which we will discuss down below.
• Each method will either return a string or an array of paths.
• Bind's a finder property to the the gulp instance.

you can call gulp-finder from any gulp task, by calling this.finder(path)

Usage

First, install gulp-finder as a development dependency:

npm install --save-dev gulp-finder

Then, add it to your gulpfile.js:

// require gulp
var gulp = require('gulp');

var finder = require('gulp-finder')(gulp);
 
// or do this
require('gulp-finder')(gulp);
 
gulp.task( 'any', function(){
    var found = this.finder( './somePath/to/some/where' );
    console.log(found)
    //=> Object that looks similar to your directory.
});
