Readdir-Glob

Recursive version of fs.readdir wih stream API and glob filtering. Uses the minimatch library to do its matching.

Usage

Install with npm

npm i readdir-glob

const readdirGlob = require('readdir-glob');
const globber = readdirGlob('.', {pattern: '**/*.js'});
globber.on('match', match => {
    // m.relative: relative path of the matched file
    // m.absolute: absolute path of the matched file
    // m.stat: stat of the matched file (only if stat:true option is used)
});
globber.on('error', err => {
    console.error('fatal error', err);
});
globber.on('end', (m) => {
    console.log('done');
});

readdirGlob(root, [options])

• root {String} Path to be read recursively, default: '.'
• options {Object} Options, default: {}

Returns a EventEmitter reading given root recursively.

Properties

• options: The options object passed in.
• paused: Boolean which is set to true when calling pause().
• aborted Boolean which is set to true when calling abort(). There is no way at this time to continue a glob search after aborting.

Events

• match: Every time a match is found, this is emitted with the specific thing that matched.
• end: When the matching is finished, this is emitted with all the matches found.
• error: Emitted when an unexpected error is encountered.

Methods

• pause(): Temporarily stop the search
• resume(): Resume the search
• abort(): Stop the search forever

Options

• pattern: Glob pattern or Array of Glob patterns to match the found files with. A file has to match at least one of the provided patterns to be returned.
• ignore: Glob pattern or Array of Glob patterns to exclude matches. If a file or a folder matches at least one of the provided patterns, it’s not returned. It doesn’t prevent files from folder content to be returned. Note: ignore patterns are always in dot:true mode.
• skip: Glob pattern or Array of Glob patterns to exclude folders. If a folder matches one of the provided patterns, it’s not returned, and it’s not explored: this prevents any of its children to be returned. Note: skip patterns are always in dot:true mode.
• mark: Add a / character to directory matches.
• stat: Set to true to stat all results. This reduces performance.
• silent: When an unusual error is encountered when attempting to read a directory, a warning will be printed to stderr. Set the silent option to true to suppress these warnings.
• nodir: Do not match directories, only files.
• follow: Follow symlinked directories. Note that requires to stat all results, and so reduces performance.

The following options apply only if pattern option is set, and are forwarded to minimatch:

• dot: Allow pattern to match filenames starting with a period, even if the pattern does not explicitly have a period in that spot.
• noglobstar: Disable ** matching against multiple folder names.
• nocase: Perform a case-insensitive match. Note: on case-insensitive filesystems, non-magic patterns will match by default, since stat and readdir will not raise errors.
• matchBase: Perform a basename-only match if the pattern does not contain any slash characters. That is, *.js would be treated as equivalent to **/*.js, matching all js files in all directories.
