file-index
Quickly create an in memory index of files and (optionally) their content
Uses minimatch to filter files included in the index
simple
var FileIndex = require('file-index')
FileIndex.load(['/some/path'], function (err, results) {
// loads and parses json files
// loads all the rest of the files as buffers
// results: { '/some/path/1.json': { a: 1}, '/some/path/2.txt': buffer }
})
FileIndex.scan(['/some/path'], function(err, files) {
// scan all files in path recursively and returns an index
// { '/some/path/1': stat, '/some/path/2': stat }
// where stat is the result of running fs.stat on each file
})

function myCustomHandler(fullPathFilename, callback) {
fs.readFile(fullPathFilename, function (err, content) {
if (err) return callback(err)
callback(null, customParse(content))
})
}
var handlers = FileIndex
.handle('*.json', FileIndex.loadJsonFile) // load and parse .json files
.handle('*.foo', FileIndex.loadRawFile) // .foo as buffers
.handle('*.bar', FileIndex.loadRawUtf8File) // .bar as text
.handle('*', myCustomHandler) // a non mandatory fallthrough custom handler
.create()
// mix directories and files
FileIndex.load(['/some/path/', '/some/file.bar', '/yet/another/path'], handlers, function(err, results) {
console.log(err, results)
