# dive

a tiny module for node that is able to recursively walk (_“dive”_) a
directory tree. There’s also an synchronous version of dive called
[diveSync](//github.com/pvorb/node-diveSync).

~~~ javascript
dive(directory[, options], action[, complete]);
~~~

* `directory` is the pathname of a readable directory.
* `options` [optional] is an object that defines some of the properties.

The default options are as follows:

~~~ javascript
{
recursive: true, // - If set to false, this will ignore subdirectories.
all: false, // - If set to true, this will show "dot files" and
// files in "dot directories", e.g. ".gitignore" or
// ".git/HEAD".
directories: false // - If set to true, this will call `action` on
// directories, too.
files: true // - If set to false, this won't call `action` on
// files any more.
ignore: false // - If set to a string or RegExp, all files and
// directories that match will be ignored.
}
~~~
* `action` is passed three arguments `(err, file, stat)` where `err` is an
error or `null`, `file` is the pathname of a file and `stat` is an
[fs.Stats](https://nodejs.org/api/fs.html#fs_class_fs_stats) object.
* `complete [optional]` may define a second callback, that is called, when all
files have been processed. It takes no arguments.

## Installation

npm install dive

## Usage

Default:

~~~ javascript
var dive = require('dive');

dive(process.cwd(), function(err, file) {

});
~~~

All files and a callback in the end:

~~~ javascript
var dive = require('dive');

dive(process.cwd(), { all: true }, function(err, file, stat) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(file);
}, function() {
console.log('complete');
});
~~~

Directories only:

~~~ javascript
var dive = require('dive');

dive(process.cwd(), { directories: true, files: false }, function(err, dir) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(dir);
});
~~~
