Package Exports

fileset

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (fileset) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

node-fileset

Expose a basic wrapper around node-glob by isaacs and findit by substack. Enable multiple pattern matching, and include exlude ability.

install

npm install fileset

usage

fileset

Can be used with callback or emitter style.

include: list of glob patterns foo/**/*.js *.md src/lib/**/*
exclude: optional list of glob patterns to filter include results foo/**/*.js *.md
callback: optional function that gets called with an error if something wrong happend, otherwise null with an array of results

The callback is optional since the fileset method return an instance of EventEmitter which emit different events you might use:

match: triggered on findit.file and each glob returned by node-glob, triggerd multiple times
includes: array of includes files, triggered once
excludes: array of exclude files, triggered once
end: array of include files, filter by exluded files, triggered once

callback

var fileset = require('fileset');

fileset('**/*.js', '**.min.js', function(err, files) {
  if (err) return console.error(err);

  console.log('Files: ', files.length);
  console.log(files);
});

event emitter

var fileset = require('fileset');

fileset('**/*.js', '**.min.js')
  .on('match', console.log.)

tests

just run npm test (make sure to install devDependencies too)

why

mainly as a build tool with cake files, to provide me an easy way to get a list of files by either using glob or path patterns, optionnaly allowing exclude patterns to filter out the results.

All the magic is happening in node-glob and findity, check them out !
