Filters
There are three different ways to specify filters for files and directories respectively.
function: a function that takes an entry info as a parameter and returns true to include or false to exclude the entry
glob string: a string (e.g.,
*.js
) which is matched using minimatch, so go there for more information.Globstars (
**
) are not supported since specifiying a recursive pattern for an already recursive function doesn't make sense.Negated globs (as explained in the minimatch documentation) are allowed, e.g.,
!*.txt
matches everything but text files.array of glob strings: either need to be all inclusive or all exclusive (negated) patterns otherwise an error is thrown.
[ '*.json', '*.js' ]
includes all JavaScript and Json files.
`[ '!.git', '!node_modules' ]` includes all directories except the '.git' and 'node_modules'.
Directories that do not pass a filter will not be recursed into.
