+# minimatch
+
+A minimal matching utility.
+
+[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/isaacs/minimatch.svg?branch=master)](http://travis-ci.org/isaacs/minimatch)
+
+
+This is the matching library used internally by npm.
+
+It works by converting glob expressions into JavaScript `RegExp`
+objects.
+
+## Usage
+
+```javascript
+var minimatch = require("minimatch")
+
+minimatch("bar.foo", "*.foo") // true!
+minimatch("bar.foo", "*.bar") // false!
+minimatch("bar.foo", "*.+(bar|foo)", { debug: true }) // true, and noisy!
+```
+
+## Features
+
+Supports these glob features:
+
+* Brace Expansion
+* Extended glob matching
+* "Globstar" `**` matching
+
+See:
+
+* `man sh`
+* `man bash`
+* `man 3 fnmatch`
+* `man 5 gitignore`
+
+## Minimatch Class
+
+Create a minimatch object by instantiating the `minimatch.Minimatch` class.
+
+```javascript
+var Minimatch = require("minimatch").Minimatch
+var mm = new Minimatch(pattern, options)
+```
+
+### Properties
+
+* `pattern` The original pattern the minimatch object represents.
+* `options` The options supplied to the constructor.
+* `set` A 2-dimensional array of regexp or string expressions.
+  Each row in the
+  array corresponds to a brace-expanded pattern.  Each item in the row
+  corresponds to a single path-part.  For example, the pattern
+  `{a,b/c}/d` would expand to a set of patterns like:
+
+        [ [ a, d ]
+        , [ b, c, d ] ]
+
+    If a portion of the pattern doesn't have any "magic" in it
+    (that is, it's something like `"foo"` rather than `fo*o?`), then it
+    will be left as a string rather than converted to a regular
+    expression.
+
+* `regexp` Created by the `makeRe` method.  A single regular expression
+  expressing the entire pattern.  This is useful in cases where you wish
+  to use the pattern somewhat like `fnmatch(3)` with `FNM_PATH` enabled.
+* `negate` True if the pattern is negated.
+* `comment` True if the pattern is a comment.
+* `empty` True if the pattern is `""`.
+
+### Methods
+
+* `makeRe` Generate the `regexp` member if necessary, and return it.
+  Will return `false` if the pattern is invalid.
+* `match(fname)` Return true if the filename matches the pattern, or
+  false otherwise.
+* `matchOne(fileArray, patternArray, partial)` Take a `/`-split
+  filename, and match it against a single row in the `regExpSet`.  This
+  method is mainly for internal use, but is exposed so that it can be
+  used by a glob-walker that needs to avoid excessive filesystem calls.
+
+All other methods are internal, and will be called as necessary.
+
+### minimatch(path, pattern, options)
+
+Main export.  Tests a path against the pattern using the options.
+
+```javascript
+var isJS = minimatch(file, "*.js", { matchBase: true })
+```
+
+### minimatch.filter(pattern, options)
+
+Returns a function that tests its
+supplied argument, suitable for use with `Array.filter`.  Example:
+
+```javascript
+var javascripts = fileList.filter(minimatch.filter("*.js", {matchBase: true}))
+```
+
+### minimatch.match(list, pattern, options)
+
+Match against the list of
+files, in the style of fnmatch or glob.  If nothing is matched, and
+options.nonull is set, then return a list containing the pattern itself.
+
+```javascript
+var javascripts = minimatch.match(fileList, "*.js", {matchBase: true}))
+```
+
+### minimatch.makeRe(pattern, options)
+
+Make a regular expression object from the pattern.
+
+## Options
+
+All options are `false` by default.
+
+### debug
+
+Dump a ton of stuff to stderr.
+
+### nobrace
+
+Do not expand `{a,b}` and `{1..3}` brace sets.
+
+### noglobstar
+
+Disable `**` matching against multiple folder names.
+
+### dot
+
+Allow patterns to match filenames starting with a period, even if
+the pattern does not explicitly have a period in that spot.
+
+Note that by default, `a/**/b` will **not** match `a/.d/b`, unless `dot`
+is set.
+
+### noext
+
+Disable "extglob" style patterns like `+(a|b)`.
+
+### nocase
+
+Perform a case-insensitive match.
+
+### nonull
+
+When a match is not found by `minimatch.match`, return a list containing
+the pattern itself if this option is set.  When not set, an empty list
+is returned if there are no matches.
+
+### matchBase
+
+If set, then patterns without slashes will be matched
+against the basename of the path if it contains slashes.  For example,
+`a?b` would match the path `/xyz/123/acb`, but not `/xyz/acb/123`.
+
+### nocomment
+
+Suppress the behavior of treating `#` at the start of a pattern as a
+comment.
+
+### nonegate
+
+Suppress the behavior of treating a leading `!` character as negation.
+
+### flipNegate
+
+Returns from negate expressions the same as if they were not negated.
+(Ie, true on a hit, false on a miss.)
+
+### partial
+
+Compare a partial path to a pattern.  As long as the parts of the path that
+are present are not contradicted by the pattern, it will be treated as a
+match.  This is useful in applications where you're walking through a
+folder structure, and don't yet have the full path, but want to ensure that
+you do not walk down paths that can never be a match.
+
+For example,
+
+```js
+minimatch('/a/b', '/a/*/c/d', { partial: true })  // true, might be /a/b/c/d
+minimatch('/a/b', '/**/d', { partial: true })     // true, might be /a/b/.../d
+minimatch('/x/y/z', '/a/**/z', { partial: true }) // false, because x !== a
+```
+
+### allowWindowsEscape
+
+Windows path separator `\` is by default converted to `/`, which
+prohibits the usage of `\` as a escape character. This flag skips that
+behavior and allows using the escape character.
+
+## Comparisons to other fnmatch/glob implementations
+
+While strict compliance with the existing standards is a worthwhile
+goal, some discrepancies exist between minimatch and other
+implementations, and are intentional.
+
+If the pattern starts with a `!` character, then it is negated.  Set the
+`nonegate` flag to suppress this behavior, and treat leading `!`
+characters normally.  This is perhaps relevant if you wish to start the
+pattern with a negative extglob pattern like `!(a|B)`.  Multiple `!`
+characters at the start of a pattern will negate the pattern multiple
+times.
+
+If a pattern starts with `#`, then it is treated as a comment, and
+will not match anything.  Use `\#` to match a literal `#` at the
+start of a line, or set the `nocomment` flag to suppress this behavior.
+
+The double-star character `**` is supported by default, unless the
+`noglobstar` flag is set.  This is supported in the manner of bsdglob
+and bash 4.1, where `**` only has special significance if it is the only
+thing in a path part.  That is, `a/**/b` will match `a/x/y/b`, but
+`a/**b` will not.
+
+If an escaped pattern has no matches, and the `nonull` flag is set,
+then minimatch.match returns the pattern as-provided, rather than
+interpreting the character escapes.  For example,
+`minimatch.match([], "\\*a\\?")` will return `"\\*a\\?"` rather than
+`"*a?"`.  This is akin to setting the `nullglob` option in bash, except
+that it does not resolve escaped pattern characters.
+
+If brace expansion is not disabled, then it is performed before any
+other interpretation of the glob pattern.  Thus, a pattern like
+`+(a|{b),c)}`, which would not be valid in bash or zsh, is expanded
+**first** into the set of `+(a|b)` and `+(a|c)`, and those patterns are
+checked for validity.  Since those two are valid, matching proceeds.
