    Test glob

    Gitignore rules, CI include/exclude patterns, or deploy filters. Pass the glob pattern (e.g. "src/*/.ts") and the file path to test (e.g. "src/utils/helper.ts"). The engine returns a boolean match result using the exact same algorithm used by npm and git. Tests whether a file path matches a glob pattern using minimatch (130M+ weekly downloads). Essential for .gitignore, CI pipeline, and deploy rule validation

FAQ

Questions minimatch owners ask.

  • 01

    Is this the same algorithm git uses?

    Yes. minimatch is the glob engine used by npm itself and follows the same POSIX glob specification that git uses for .gitignore.

  • 02

    Does it support double-star recursive patterns?

    Yes. The ` pattern matches any number of directories recursively. For example, src//*.ts matches files at any depth inside src/`.

  • 03

    Can I test negation patterns?

    Yes. Prefix any pattern with ! to negate it. For example, !node_modules/** will NOT match any path inside node_modules.
