simple-recursive-search

Async function that retrieves file and directory paths.

This is still an experimental version.

This retrieves the relative path (not just the filenames.), so it's simple to:

• rename,
• move
• or change these files.

Currently it will descend up to the last directory in a tree. A safety limit depth may be added soon.

Installation

$ npm i simple-recursive-search

Usage

import { search: recursiveSearch } from "simple-recursive-search";

recursiveSearch(".",{
  excludeDirs:(dirname) => /node_modules/.test(dirname),
  excludeFiles:(filename) => filename.endsWith(".jpg"),
  wantFiles:true,// default, dont need to pass
  wantDirectories:false//default, dont need to pass
  dotFiles:false//default, dont need to pass
}).then((matches) => {
  console.log(matches);
});

Or using await

import { search: recursiveSearch } from "simple-recursive-search";
async function run(){
const listOfFilesMatched = await recursiveSearch(".",{
  excludeDirs:(dirname) => /node_modules/.test(dirname)
})}
console.log(listOfFilesMatched)
