Fast, minimal glob matcher for node.js. Similar to micromatch, minimatch and multimatch, but complete Bash 4.3 wildcard support only (no support for exglobs, posix brackets or braces)
Please consider following this project's author, Jon Schlinkert, and consider starring the project to show your :heart: and support.

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

How is this different?
Speed and accuracy
Nanomatch uses snapdragon for parsing and compiling globs, which results in:
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)
Install with yarn
$ yarn add nanomatch
Install with npm
$ npm install nanomatch
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 passedExamples
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.
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'

Clear the regex cache.
Example
nm.clearCache();
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
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
Disable regex and function memoization.
Type: boolean
Default: undefined
dot
Match dotfiles. Same behavior as minimatch option dot
.
Type: boolean
Default: false
failglob
Similar to the --failglob
behavior in Bash, throws an error when no matches are found.
Type: boolean
Default: undefined
ignore
String or array of glob patterns to match files to ignore.
Type: String|Array
Default: undefined
matchBase
Alias for options.basename.
nocase
Use a case-insensitive regex for matching files. Same behavior as minimatch.
Type: boolean
Default: undefined
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
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
Disallow negation (!
) patterns, and treat leading !
as a literal character to match.
Type: boolean
Default: undefined
nonull
Alias for options.nullglob.
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
Customize the slash character(s) to use for matching.
Type: string|function
Default: [/\\]
(forward slash and backslash)
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
Pass your own instance of snapdragon to customize parsers or compilers.
Type: object
Default: undefined
snapdragon
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
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
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']
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 | when it's not the only thing in a path segment, per Bash specifications) |
| 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:
{a,b,c}
)@(a|!(c|d))
)[[:alpha:][:digit:]]
)If you need any of these features consider using micromatch instead.
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)
| Extglobs |
| 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.
