For details, see [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/kaelzhang/node-ignore/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md). + +## Table Of Main Contents + +- [Usage](#usage) +- [`Pathname` Conventions](#pathname-conventions) +- See Also: + - [`glob-gitignore`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/glob-gitignore) matches files using patterns and filters them according to gitignore rules. +- [Upgrade Guide](#upgrade-guide) + +## 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
