 | |
| > Return true if a value is a valid glob pattern or patterns.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Install
 | |
| 
 | |
| Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| $ npm install --save is-valid-glob
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Usage
 | |
| 
 | |
| This really just checks to make sure that a pattern is either a string or array, and if it's an array it's either empty or consists of only strings.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| var isValidGlob = require('is-valid-glob');
 | |
| 
 | |
| isValidGlob('foo/*.js');
 | |
| //=> true
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| **Valid patterns**
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| isValidGlob('a');
 | |
| isValidGlob('a.js');
 | |
| isValidGlob('*.js');
 | |
| isValidGlob(['a', 'b']);
 | |
| //=> all true
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| **Invalid patterns**
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| isValidGlob();
 | |
| isValidGlob('');
 | |
| isValidGlob(null);
 | |
| isValidGlob(undefined);
 | |
| isValidGlob(new Buffer('foo'));
 | |
| isValidGlob(['foo', [[]]]);
 | |
| isValidGlob(['foo', [['bar']]]);
 | |
| isValidGlob(['foo', {}]);
 | |
| isValidGlob({});
 | |
| isValidGlob([]);
 | |
| isValidGlob(['']);
 | |
| //=> all false
 | |
| ```
