Documentation

glob(rules, [callback])

• rules {String|Array|Object}
  • The rule can contain regular expressions, but she needs to be enclosed in parentheses
    • Example valid: ./**/*.(js|node) or ./**/*.mp([2-4]) or ...
    • Exemple incorrecte: ./**/*.mp[2-4] ([2-4] is not in parentheses)
  • String Search rule
  • Array List of search rules
  • Object List of search rules as Object (the "excludes" parameter is not yet functional)

    {
        includes: ['./**/*.(js|node)', './**/*.mp([2-4])'],
        excludes: [],
    }

• callback {Function}
  • Callback function is called each time a file is found. If the function returns false, then the file is not added to the list returned by Glob, otherwise it is added.
