# parse-glob [![NPM version](https://badge.fury.io/js/parse-glob.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/js/parse-glob)  [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/parse-glob.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/parse-glob)

> Parse a glob pattern into an object of tokens.

**Changes from v1.0.0 to v3.0.4**

* all path-related properties are now on the `path` object
* all boolean properties are now on the `is` object
* adds `base` property

See the [properties](#properties) section for details.

Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/)

```sh
$ npm i parse-glob --save
```

* parses 1,000+ glob patterns in 29ms (2.3 GHz Intel Core i7)
* Extensive [unit tests](./test.js) (more than 1,000 lines), covering wildcards, globstars, character classes, brace patterns, extglobs, dotfiles and other complex patterns.

See the tests for [hundreds of examples](./test.js).

## Usage

```js
var parseGlob = require('parse-glob');
```

**Example**

```js
parseGlob('a/b/c/**/*.{yml,json}');
```

**Returns:**

```js
{ orig: 'a/b/c/**/*.{yml,json}',
  is:
   { glob: true,
     negated: false,
     extglob: false,
     braces: true,
     brackets: false,
     globstar: true,
     dotfile: false,
     dotdir: false },
  glob: '**/*.{yml,json}',
  base: 'a/b/c',
  path:
   { dirname: 'a/b/c/**/',
     basename: '*.{yml,json}',
     filename: '*',
     extname: '.{yml,json}',
     ext: '{yml,json}' } }
```

## Properties

The object returned by parseGlob has the following properties:

* `orig`: a copy of the original, unmodified glob pattern
* `is`: an object with boolean information about the glob:
  - `glob`: true if the pattern actually a glob pattern
  - `negated`: true if it's a negation pattern (`!**/foo.js`)
  - `extglob`: true if it has extglobs (`@(foo|bar)`)
  - `braces`: true if it has braces (`{1..2}` or `.{txt,md}`)
  - `brackets`: true if it has POSIX brackets (`[[:alpha:]]`)
  - `globstar`: true if the pattern has a globstar (double star, `**`)
  - `dotfile`: true if the pattern should match dotfiles
  - `dotdir`: true if the pattern should match dot-directories (like `.git`)
* `glob`: the glob pattern part of the string, if any
* `base`: the non-glob part of the string, if any
* `path`: file path segments
  - `dirname`: directory
  - `basename`: file name with extension
  - `filename`: file name without extension
  - `extname`: file extension with dot
  - `ext`: file extension without dot
