globby 
Extends glob with support for multiple patterns and exposes a Promise API
Install
$ npm install --save globby
Usage
├── unicorn
├── cake
└── rainbow
const globby = require('globby');
globby(['*', '!cake']).then(paths => {
console.log(paths);
//=> ['unicorn', 'rainbow']
});
API
globby(patterns, [options])
Returns a Promise for an array of matching paths.
globby.sync(patterns, [options])
Returns an array of matching paths.
globby.generateGlobTasks(patterns, [options])
Returns an array of objects in the format { pattern: string, opts: Object }, which can be passed as arguments to node-glob. This is useful for other globbing-related packages.
Note that you should avoid running the same tasks multiple times as they contain a file system cache. Instead, run this method each time to ensure file system changes are taken into consideration.
globby.hasMagic(patterns, [options])
Returns a boolean of whether there are any special glob characters in the patterns.
Note that the options affect the results. If noext: true is set, then +(a|b) will not be considered a magic pattern. If the pattern has a brace expansion, like a/{b/c,x/y}, then that is considered magical, unless nobrace: true is set.
patterns
Type: string Array
See supported minimatch patterns.
options
Type: Object
See the node-glob options.
Globbing patterns
Just a quick overview.
*matches any number of characters, but not/?matches a single character, but not/**matches any number of characters, including/, as long as it's the only thing in a path part{}allows for a comma-separated list of "or" expressions!at the beginning of a pattern will negate the match
Various patterns and expected matches.
