Install with npm:

Usage
var matchFile = require('match-file');
API
matchFile
Returns true if the given string matches one of the path properties on the file object (does not match agains file.extname only)
var File = require('vinyl');
var matchFile = require('match-file');
var file = new File({path: 'a/b/c.txt', base: 'a'});
var isMatch = matchFile('c.txt', file);
//=> true (since `c.txt` matches file.basename)
Examples
Continuing with the above setup code, all of the following would return true:
// file.path
matchFile('a/b/c.txt', file);
// file.relative
matchFile('b/c.txt', file);
// file.basename
matchFile('c.txt', file);
// file.stem
matchFile('c', file);
.isMatch
Similar to matchFile, but also supports glob patterns for matching. micromatch is used for matching, visit that project to see all available features and options.
var file = new File({path: 'a/b/c.txt'});
console.log(matcher.isMatch('*.js', file));
//=> false
var file = new File({path: 'a/b/c.js'});
console.log(matcher.isMatch('*.js', file));
//=> true
Examples
var File = require('vinyl');
var matchFile = require('match-file');
var file = new File({path: 'a/b/c/d/e.txt', base: 'a/b/c'});
file.key = 'zzz/a.txt'; // arbitrary key (for caching)
// file.path
console.log(matchFile.isMatch('a/b/c/d/e.txt', file));
// file.relative
console.log(matchFile.isMatch('d/e.txt', file));
// file.basename
console.log(matchFile.isMatch('e.txt', file));
// file.stem
console.log(matchFile.isMatch('e', file));
// file.key
console.log(matchFile.isMatch('zzz/a.txt', file));
// glob pattern for `file.path`
console.log(matchFile.isMatch('**/*.txt', file));
// glob pattern for `file.relative`
console.log(matchFile.isMatch('d/*.txt', file));
// glob pattern for `file.stem`
console.log(matchFile.isMatch('*', file));
// glob pattern for `file.basename`
console.log(matchFile.isMatch('*.txt', file));
.matcher
Returns a matcher function bound to the given glob patterns and options. micromatch is used for matching, visit that project to see all available features and options.
var isMatch = matchFile.matcher('*.js');
console.log(isMatch);
//=> [function]
var file = new File({path: 'a/b/c.txt'});
console.log(isMatch(file));
//=> false
var file = new File({path: 'a/b/c.js'});
console.log(isMatch(file));
//=> true
Examples
Given this setup code:
var File = require('vinyl');
var matchFile = require('match-file');
var file = new File({path: 'a/b/c/d/e.txt', base: 'a/b/c'});
file.key = 'zzz/a.txt'; // arbitrary key (for caching)
All of the following examples would return true:
// file.path
var isMatch = matchFile.matcher('a/b/c/d/e.txt');
console.log(isMatch(file));
// file.relative
var isMatch = matchFile.matcher('d/e.txt');
console.log(isMatch(file));
// file.basename
var isMatch = matchFile.matcher('e.txt');
console.log(isMatch(file));
// file.stem
var isMatch = matchFile.matcher('e');
console.log(isMatch(file));
// file.key
var isMatch = matchFile.matcher('zzz/a.txt');
console.log(isMatch(file));
// glob pattern for `file.path`
var isMatch = matchFile.matcher('**/*.txt');
console.log(isMatch(file));
// glob pattern for `file.relative`
var isMatch = matchFile.matcher('d/*.txt');
console.log(isMatch(file));
// glob pattern for `file.stem`
var isMatch = matchFile.matcher('*');
console.log(isMatch(file));
// glob pattern for `file.basename`
var isMatch = matchFile.matcher('*.txt');
console.log(isMatch(file));
Gulp usage
Use in your gulp plugin:
var though = require('though2');
var gulp = require('gulp');
gulp.task('example', function() {
return gulp.src('src/**/*')
.pipe(filter('*.js'));
});
function filter(pattern, options) {
// define a matcher function outside of the plugin function
var isMatch = matchFile.matcher(pattern, options);
return through.obj(function(file, enc, next) {
// use the matcher function
if (isMatch(file)) {
next(null, file);
return;
}
next();
});
}
