What is nanomatch?

Nanomatch is a fast and accurate glob matcher with full support for standard Bash glob features, including the following "metacharacters": *, **, ? and [...].

Getting started: learn how to install and begin using nanomatch
Features: jump to info about supported patterns, and a glob matching reference
API documentation: jump to available options and methods
Unit tests: visit unit tests. there is no better way to learn a code library than spending time the unit tests. Nanomatch has 36,000 unit tests - go become a glob matching ninja!

How is this different?

Speed and accuracy

Nanomatch uses snapdragon for parsing and compiling globs, which results in:

Granular control over the entire conversion process in a way that is easy to understand, reason about, and customize.
Faster matching, from a combination of optimized glob patterns and (optional) caching.
Much greater accuracy than minimatch. In fact, nanomatch passes all of the spec tests from bash, including some that bash still fails. However, since there is no real specification for globs, if you encounter a pattern that yields unexpected match results after researching previous issues, please let us know.

Basic globbing only

Nanomatch supports basic globbing only, which is limited to *, **, ? and regex-like brackets.

If you need support for the other bash "expansion" types (in addition to the wildcard matching provided by nanomatch), consider using micromatch instead. (micromatch >=3.0.0 uses the nanomatch parser and compiler for basic glob matching)

Getting started

Installing nanomatch

Install with yarn

$ yarn add nanomatch

Install with npm

$ npm install nanomatch

Usage

Add nanomatch to your project using node's require() system:

var nanomatch = require('nanomatch');

// the main export is a function that takes an array of strings to match
// and a string or array of patterns to use for matching
nanomatch(list, patterns[, options]);

Params

list {String|Array}: List of strings to perform matches against. This is often a list of file paths.
patterns {String|Array}: One or more glob paterns to use for matching.
options {Object}: Any supported options may be passed

Examples

var nm = require('nanomatch');
console.log(nm(['a', 'b/b', 'c/c/c'], '*'));
//=> ['a']

console.log(nm(['a', 'b/b', 'c/c/c'], '*/*'));
//=> ['b/b']

console.log(nm(['a', 'b/b', 'c/c/c'], '**'));
//=> ['a', 'b/b', 'c/c/c']

See the API documentation for available methods and options.

Documentation

Escaping

Backslashes and quotes can be used to escape characters, forcing nanomatch to regard those characters as a literal characters.

Backslashes

Use backslashes to escape single characters. For example, the following pattern would match foo/*/bar exactly:

'foo/\*/bar'

The following pattern would match foo/ followed by a literal *, followed by zero or more of any characters besides /, followed by /bar.

'foo/\**/bar'

Quoted strings

Use single or double quotes to escape sequences of characters. For example, the following patterns would match foo/**/bar exactly:

'foo/"**"/bar'
'foo/\'**\'/bar'
"foo/'**'/bar"

Matching literal quotes

If you need to match quotes literally, you can escape them as well. For example, the following will match foo/"*"/bar, foo/"a"/bar, foo/"b"/bar, or foo/"c"/bar:

'foo/\\"*\\"/bar'

And the following will match foo/'*'/bar, foo/'a'/bar, foo/'b'/bar, or foo/'c'/bar:

'foo/\\\'*\\\'/bar'

.clearCache

Clear the regex cache.

Example

nm.clearCache();

Options

basename

options.basename

Allow glob patterns without slashes to match a file path based on its basename. Same behavior as minimatch option matchBase.

Type: boolean

Default: false

Example

nm(['a/b.js', 'a/c.md'], '*.js');
//=> []

nm(['a/b.js', 'a/c.md'], '*.js', {matchBase: true});
//=> ['a/b.js']

bash

options.bash

Enabled by default, this option enforces bash-like behavior with stars immediately following a bracket expression. Bash bracket expressions are similar to regex character classes, but unlike regex, a star following a bracket expression does not repeat the bracketed characters. Instead, the star is treated the same as an other star.

Type: boolean

Default: true

Example

var files = ['abc', 'ajz'];
console.log(nm(files, '[a-c]*'));
//=> ['abc', 'ajz']

console.log(nm(files, '[a-c]*', {bash: false}));

cache

options.cache

Disable regex and function memoization.

Type: boolean

Default: undefined

dot

options.dot

Match dotfiles. Same behavior as minimatch option dot.

Type: boolean

Default: false

failglob

options.failglob

Similar to the --failglob behavior in Bash, throws an error when no matches are found.

Type: boolean

Default: undefined

ignore

options.ignore

String or array of glob patterns to match files to ignore.

Type: String|Array

Default: undefined

matchBase

options.matchBase

Alias for options.basename.

nocase

options.nocase

Use a case-insensitive regex for matching files. Same behavior as minimatch.

Type: boolean

Default: undefined

nodupes

options.nodupes

Remove duplicate elements from the result array.

Type: boolean

Default: true (enabled by default)

Example

Example of using the unescape and nodupes options together:

nm.match(['a/b/c', 'a/b/c'], '**');
//=> ['abc']

nm.match(['a/b/c', 'a/b/c'], '**', {nodupes: false});
//=> ['a/b/c', 'a/b/c']

nonegate

options.noglobstar

Disable matching with globstars (**).

Type: boolean

Default: undefined

nm(['a/b', 'a/b/c', 'a/b/c/d'], 'a/**');
//=> ['a/b', 'a/b/c', 'a/b/c/d']

nm(['a/b', 'a/b/c', 'a/b/c/d'], 'a/**', {noglobstar: true});
//=> ['a/b']

nonegate

options.nonegate

Disallow negation (!) patterns, and treat leading ! as a literal character to match.

Type: boolean

Default: undefined

nonull

options.nonull

Alias for options.nullglob.

nullglob

options.nullglob

If true, when no matches are found the actual (arrayified) glob pattern is returned instead of an empty array. Same behavior as minimatch option nonull.

Type: boolean

Default: undefined

slash

options.slash

Customize the slash character(s) to use for matching.

Type: string|function

Default: [/\\] (forward slash and backslash)

star

options.star

Customize the star character(s) to use for matching. It's not recommended that you modify this unless you have advanced knowledge of the compiler and matching rules.

Type: string|function

Default: [^/\\]*?

snapdragon

options.snapdragon

Pass your own instance of snapdragon to customize parsers or compilers.

Type: object

Default: undefined

snapdragon

options.sourcemap

Generate a source map by enabling the sourcemap option with the .parse, .compile, or .create methods.

Examples

var nm = require('nanomatch');

var res = nm.create('abc/*.js', {sourcemap: true});
console.log(res.map);
// { version: 3,
//   sources: [ 'string' ],
//   names: [],
//   mappings: 'AAAA,GAAG,EAAC,iBAAC,EAAC,EAAE',
//   sourcesContent: [ 'abc/*.js' ] }

var ast = nm.parse('abc/**/*.js');
var res = nm.compile(ast, {sourcemap: true});
console.log(res.map);
// { version: 3,
//   sources: [ 'string' ],
//   names: [],
//   mappings: 'AAAA,GAAG,EAAC,2BAAE,EAAC,iBAAC,EAAC,EAAE',
//   sourcesContent: [ 'abc/**/*.js' ] }

unescape

options.unescape

Remove backslashes from returned matches.

Type: boolean

Default: undefined

Example

In this example we want to match a literal *:

nm.match(['abc', 'a\\*c'], 'a\\*c');
//=> ['a\\*c']

nm.match(['abc', 'a\\*c'], 'a\\*c', {unescape: true});
//=> ['a*c']

unixify

options.unixify

Convert path separators on returned files to posix/unix-style forward slashes.

Type: boolean

Default: true

Example

nm.match(['a\\b\\c'], 'a/**');
//=> ['a/b/c']

nm.match(['a\\b\\c'], {unixify: false});
//=> ['a\\b\\c']

Features

Nanomatch has full support for standard Bash glob features, including the following "metacharacters": *, **, ? and [...].

Here are some examples of how they work:

Pattern	Description
`*`	Matches any string except for `/`, leading `.`, or `/.` inside a path
`**`	Matches any string including `/`, but not a leading `.` or `/.` inside a path. More than two stars (e.g. `*` is treated the same as one star, and `` loses its special meaning
`foo*`	Matches any string beginning with `foo`
`bar`	Matches any string containing `bar` (beginning, middle or end)
`*.min.js`	Matches any string ending with `.min.js`
`[abc]*.js`	Matches any string beginning with `a`, `b`, or `c` and ending with `.js`
`abc?`	Matches `abcd` or `abcz` but not `abcde`

The exceptions noted for * apply to all patterns that contain a *.

Not supported

The following extended-globbing features are not supported:

brace expansion (e.g. {a,b,c})
extglobs (e.g. @(a|!(c|d)))
POSIX brackets (e.g. [[:alpha:][:digit:]])

If you need any of these features consider using micromatch instead.

Bash expansion libs

Nanomatch is part of a suite of libraries aimed at bringing the power and expressiveness of Bash's matching and expansion capabilities to JavaScript, and - as you can see by the benchmarks - without sacrificing speed.

Related library	Matching Type	Example	Description
`nanomatch` (you are here)	Wildcards	`*`	Filename expansion, also referred to as globbing and pathname expansion, allows the use of wildcards for matching.
expand-tilde	Tildes	`~`	Tilde expansion converts the leading tilde in a file path to the user home directory.
braces	Braces	`{a,b,c}`	Brace expansion
expand-brackets	Brackets	`[[:alpha:]]`	POSIX character classes (also referred to as POSIX brackets, or POSIX character classes)
extglob	Parens	`!(a\	b)`
micromatch	All	all	Micromatch is built on top of the other libraries.

There are many resources available on the web if you want to dive deeper into how these features work in Bash.
