# is-glob [![NPM version](https://badge.fury.io/js/is-glob.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/js/is-glob) [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/is-glob.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/is-glob)
> Returns `true` if the given string looks like a glob pattern or an extglob pattern. This makes it easy to create code that only uses external modules like node-glob when necessary, resulting in much faster code execution and initialization time, and a better user experience.
Also take a look at [is-valid-glob](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/is-valid-glob) and [has-glob](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/has-glob).
## Install
Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/)
```sh
$ npm i is-glob --save
```
## Usage
```js
var isGlob = require('is-glob');
```
**True**
Patterns that have glob characters or regex patterns will return `true`:
```js
isGlob('!foo.js');
isGlob('*.js');
isGlob('**/abc.js');
isGlob('abc/*.js');
isGlob('abc/(aaa|bbb).js');
isGlob('abc/[a-z].js');
isGlob('abc/{a,b}.js');
isGlob('abc/?.js');
//=> true
```
Extglobs
```js
isGlob('abc/@(a).js');
isGlob('abc/!(a).js');
isGlob('abc/+(a).js');
isGlob('abc/*(a).js');
isGlob('abc/?(a).js');
//=> true
```
**False**
Patterns that do not have glob patterns return `false`:
```js
isGlob('abc.js');
isGlob('abc/def/ghi.js');
isGlob('foo.js');
isGlob('abc/@.js');
isGlob('abc/+.js');
isGlob();
isGlob(null);
//=> false
```
Arrays are also `false` (If you want to check if an array has a glob pattern, use [has-glob](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/has-glob)):
```js
isGlob(['**/*.js']);
isGlob(['foo.js']);
//=> false
```
