tiny glob
Tiny and extremely fast library to match files and folders using glob patterns.
"Globs" is the common name for a specific type of pattern used to match files and folders. It's the patterns you type when you do stuff like `ls *.js` in your shell or put `src/*` in a `.gitignore` file. When used to match filenames, it's sometimes called a "wildcard".
## Install
```
npm install tiny-glob
```
## Core Features
- 🔥 **extremely fast:** ~350% faster than [node-glob](https://github.com/isaacs/node-glob) and ~230% faster than [fast-glob](https://github.com/mrmlnc/fast-glob)
- 💪 **powerful:** supports advanced globbing patterns (`ExtGlob`)
- 📦 **tiny**: only ~45 LOC with 2 small dependencies
- 👫 **friendly**: simple and easy to use api
- 🎭 **cross-platform**: supports both unix and windows
## Usage
```js
const glob = require('tiny-glob');
(async function(){
let files = await glob('src/*/*.{js,md}');
// => [ ... ] array of matching files
})();
```
## API
### glob(str, options)
Type: `function`
Returns: `Array`
Return array of matching files and folders
This function is `async` and returns a promise.
#### str
Type: `String`
The glob pattern to match against.
> **OBS**: Please only use forward-slashes in glob expressions. Even on [windows](#windows)
#### options.cwd
Type: `String`
Default: `'.'`
Change default working directory.
#### options.dot
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Allow patterns to match filenames or directories that begin with a period (`.`).
#### options.absolute
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Return matches as absolute paths.
#### options.filesOnly
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Skip directories and return matched files only.
#### options.flush
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`
Flush the internal cache object.
## Windows
Though Windows may use `/`, `\`, or `\\` as path separators, you can **only** use forward-slashes (`/`) when specifying glob expressions. Any back-slashes (`\`) will be interpreted as escape characters instead of path separators.
This is common across many glob-based modules; see [`node-glob`](https://github.com/isaacs/node-glob#windows) for corroboration.
