Extends minimatch.match() with support for multiple patterns

$ npm install multimatch

const multimatch = require('multimatch');

multimatch(['unicorn', 'cake', 'rainbows'], ['*', '!cake']);
//=> ['unicorn', 'rainbows']

See the tests for more usage examples and expected matches.

Returns an array of matching paths.

Type: string string[]

• Quick globbing pattern overview

Type: Object

See the minimatch options.

Positive patterns (e.g. foo or *) add to the results, while negative patterns (e.g. !foo) subtract from the results.

Therefore a lone negation (e.g. ['!foo']) will never match anything – use ['*', '!foo'] instead.

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

• globby - Match against the filesystem instead of a list
• matcher - Simple wildcard matching
