# ignore
|
|
|
|
`ignore` is a manager, filter and parser which implemented in pure JavaScript according to the [.gitignore spec 2.22.1](http://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore).
|
|
|
|
`ignore` is used by eslint, gitbook and [many others](https://www.npmjs.com/browse/depended/ignore).
|
|
|
|
Pay **ATTENTION** that [`minimatch`](https://www.npmjs.org/package/minimatch) (which used by `fstream-ignore`) does not follow the gitignore spec.
|
|
|
|
To filter filenames according to a .gitignore file, I recommend this npm package, `ignore`.
|
|
|
|
To parse an `.npmignore` file, you should use `minimatch`, because an `.npmignore` file is parsed by npm using `minimatch` and it does not work in the .gitignore way.
|
|
|
|
### Tested on
|
|
|
|
`ignore` is fully tested, and has more than **five hundreds** of unit tests.
|
|
|
|
- Linux + Node: `0.8` - `7.x`
|
|
- Windows + Node: `0.10` - `7.x`, node < `0.10` is not tested due to the lack of support of appveyor.
|
|
|
|
Actually, `ignore` does not rely on any versions of node specially.
|
|
|
|
Since `4.0.0`, ignore will no longer support `node < 6` by default, to use in node < 6, `require('ignore/legacy')`. For details, see [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/kaelzhang/node-ignore/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md).

|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
npm i ignore
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import ignore from 'ignore'
|
|
const ig = ignore().add(['.abc/*', '!.abc/d/'])
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Filter the given paths
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const paths = [
|
|
'.abc/a.js', // filtered out
|
|
'.abc/d/e.js' // included
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
ig.filter(paths) // ['.abc/d/e.js']
|
|
ig.ignores('.abc/a.js') // true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### As the filter function
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
paths.filter(ig.createFilter()); // ['.abc/d/e.js']
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Win32 paths will be handled
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
ig.filter(['.abc\\a.js', '.abc\\d\\e.js'])
|
|
// if the code above runs on windows, the result will be
|
|
// ['.abc\\d\\e.js']
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Why another ignore?
|
|
|
|
- `ignore` is a standalone module, and is much simpler so that it could easy work with other programs, unlike [isaacs](https://npmjs.org/~isaacs)'s [fstream-ignore](https://npmjs.org/package/fstream-ignore) which must work with the modules of the fstream family.
|
|
|
|
- `ignore` only contains utility methods to filter paths according to the specified ignore rules, so
|
|
- `ignore` never try to find out ignore rules by traversing directories or fetching from git configurations.
|
|
- `ignore` don't cares about sub-modules of git projects.
|
|
|
|
- Exactly according to [gitignore man page](http://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore), fixes some known matching issues of fstream-ignore, such as:
|
|
- '`/*.js`' should only match '`a.js`', but not '`abc/a.js`'.
|
|
- '`**/foo`' should match '`foo`' anywhere.
|
|
- Prevent re-including a file if a parent directory of that file is excluded.
|
|
- Handle trailing whitespaces:
|
|
- `'a '`(one space) should not match `'a '`(two spaces).
|
|
- `'a \ '` matches `'a '`
|
|
- All test cases are verified with the result of `git check-ignore`.
|
|
|
|
# Methods
|
|
|
|
## .add(pattern: string | Ignore): this
|
|
## .add(patterns: Array<string | Ignore>): this
|
|
|
|
- **pattern** `String | Ignore` An ignore pattern string, or the `Ignore` instance
|
|
- **patterns** `Array<String | Ignore>` Array of ignore patterns.
|
|
|
|
Adds a rule or several rules to the current manager.
|
|
|
|
Returns `this`
|
|
|
|
Notice that a line starting with `'#'`(hash) is treated as a comment. Put a backslash (`'\'`) in front of the first hash for patterns that begin with a hash, if you want to ignore a file with a hash at the beginning of the filename.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
ignore().add('#abc').ignores('#abc') // false
|
|
ignore().add('\#abc').ignores('#abc') // true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`pattern` could either be a line of ignore pattern or a string of multiple ignore patterns, which means we could just `ignore().add()` the content of a ignore file:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
ignore()
|
|
.add(fs.readFileSync(filenameOfGitignore).toString())
|
|
.filter(filenames)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`pattern` could also be an `ignore` instance, so that we could easily inherit the rules of another `Ignore` instance.
|
|
|
|
## <strike>.addIgnoreFile(path)</strike>
|
|
|
|
REMOVED in `3.x` for now.
|
|
|
|
To upgrade `ignore@2.x` up to `3.x`, use
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import fs from 'fs'
|
|
|
|
if (fs.existsSync(filename)) {
|
|
ignore().add(fs.readFileSync(filename).toString())
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
instead.
|
|
|
|
## .filter(paths: Array<Pathname>): Array<Pathname>
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
type Pathname = string
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Filters the given array of pathnames, and returns the filtered array.
|
|
|
|
- **paths** `Array.<Pathname>` The array of `pathname`s to be filtered.
|
|
|
|
### `Pathname` Conventions:
|
|
|
|
#### 1. `Pathname` should be a `path.relative()`d pathname
|
|
|
|
`Pathname` should be a string that have been `path.join()`ed, or the return value of `path.relative()` to the current directory,
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
// WRONG, an error will be thrown
|
|
ig.ignores('./abc')
|
|
|
|
// WRONG, for it will never happen, and an error will be thrown
|
|
// If the gitignore rule locates at the root directory,
|
|
// `'/abc'` should be changed to `'abc'`.
|
|
// ```
|
|
// path.relative('/', '/abc') -> 'abc'
|
|
// ```
|
|
ig.ignores('/abc')
|
|
|
|
// WRONG, that it is an absolute path on Windows, an error will be thrown
|
|
ig.ignores('C:\\abc')
|
|
|
|
// Right
|
|
ig.ignores('abc')
|
|
|
|
// Right
|
|
ig.ignores(path.join('./abc')) // path.join('./abc') -> 'abc'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In other words, each `Pathname` here should be a relative path to the directory of the gitignore rules.
|
|
|
|
Suppose the dir structure is:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/path/to/your/repo
|
|
|-- a
|
|
| |-- a.js
|
|
|
|
|
|-- .b
|
|
|
|
|
|-- .c
|
|
|-- .DS_store
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then the `paths` might be like this:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
[
|
|
'a/a.js'
|
|
'.b',
|
|
'.c/.DS_store'
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### 2. filenames and dirnames
|
|
|
|
`node-ignore` does NO `fs.stat` during path matching, so for the example below:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
// First, we add a ignore pattern to ignore a directory
|
|
ig.add('config/')
|
|
|
|
// `ig` does NOT know if 'config', in the real world,
|
|
// is a normal file, directory or something.
|
|
|
|
ig.ignores('config')
|
|
// `ig` treats `config` as a file, so it returns `false`
|
|
|
|
ig.ignores('config/')
|
|
// returns `true`
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Specially for people who develop some library based on `node-ignore`, it is important to understand that.
|
|
|
|
Usually, you could use [`glob`](http://npmjs.org/package/glob) with `option.mark = true` to fetch the structure of the current directory:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import glob from 'glob'
|
|
|
|
glob('**', {
|
|
// Adds a / character to directory matches.
|
|
mark: true
|
|
}, (err, files) => {
|
|
if (err) {
|
|
return console.error(err)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
let filtered = ignore().add(patterns).filter(files)
|
|
console.log(filtered)
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## .ignores(pathname: Pathname): boolean
|
|
|
|
> new in 3.2.0
|
|
|
|
Returns `Boolean` whether `pathname` should be ignored.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
ig.ignores('.abc/a.js') // true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## .createFilter()
|
|
|
|
Creates a filter function which could filter an array of paths with `Array.prototype.filter`.
|
|
|
|
Returns `function(path)` the filter function.
|
|
|
|
## .test(pathname: Pathname) since 5.0.0
|
|
|
|
Returns `TestResult`
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
interface TestResult {
|
|
ignored: boolean
|
|
// true if the `pathname` is finally unignored by some negative pattern
|
|
unignored: boolean
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `{ignored: true, unignored: false}`: the `pathname` is ignored
|
|
- `{ignored: false, unignored: true}`: the `pathname` is unignored
|
|
- `{ignored: false, unignored: false}`: the `pathname` is never matched by any ignore rules.
|
|
|
|
## `options.ignorecase` since 4.0.0
|
|
|
|
Similar as the `core.ignorecase` option of [git-config](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-config), `node-ignore` will be case insensitive if `options.ignorecase` is set to `true` (the default value), otherwise case sensitive.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const ig = ignore({
|
|
ignorecase: false
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
ig.add('*.png')
|
|
|
|
ig.ignores('*.PNG') // false
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## static `ignore.isPathValid(pathname): boolean` since 5.0.0
|
|
|
|
Check whether the `pathname` is an valid `path.relative()`d path according to the [convention](#1-pathname-should-be-a-pathrelatived-pathname).
|
|
|
|
This method is **NOT** used to check if an ignore pattern is valid.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
ignore.isPathValid('./foo') // false
|
|
```
|
|

# Upgrade Guide
|
|
|
|
## Upgrade 4.x -> 5.x
|
|
|
|
Since `5.0.0`, if an invalid `Pathname` passed into `ig.ignores()`, an error will be thrown, while `ignore < 5.0.0` did not make sure what the return value was, as well as
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
.ignores(pathname: Pathname): boolean
|
|
|
|
.filter(pathnames: Array<Pathname>): Array<Pathname>
|
|
|
|
.createFilter(): (pathname: Pathname) => boolean
|
|
|
|
.test(pathname: Pathname): {ignored: boolean, unignored: boolean}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See the convention [here](#1-pathname-should-be-a-pathrelatived-pathname) for details.
|
|
|
|
If there are invalid pathnames, the conversion and filtration should be done by users.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import {isPathValid} from 'ignore' // introduced in 5.0.0
|
|
|
|
const paths = [
|
|
// invalid
|
|
//////////////////
|
|
'',
|
|
false,
|
|
'../foo',
|
|
'.',
|
|
//////////////////
|
|
|
|
// valid
|
|
'foo'
|
|
]
|
|
.filter(isValidPath)
|
|
|
|
ig.filter(paths)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Upgrade 3.x -> 4.x
|
|
|
|
Since `4.0.0`, `ignore` will no longer support node < 6, to use `ignore` in node < 6:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var ignore = require('ignore/legacy')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Upgrade 2.x -> 3.x
|
|
|
|
- All `options` of 2.x are unnecessary and removed, so just remove them.
|
|
- `ignore()` instance is no longer an [`EventEmitter`](nodejs.org/api/events.html), and all events are unnecessary and removed.
|
|
- `.addIgnoreFile()` is removed, see the [.addIgnoreFile](#addignorefilepath) section for details.
