Simple wildcard matching
Useful when you want to accept loose string input and regexes/globs are too convoluted.
$ npm install matcher
const matcher = require('matcher');
matcher(['foo', 'bar', 'moo'], ['*oo', '!foo']);
//=> ['moo']
matcher(['foo', 'bar', 'moo'], ['!*oo']);
//=> ['bar']
matcher.isMatch('unicorn', 'uni*');
//=> true
matcher.isMatch('unicorn', '*corn');
//=> true
matcher.isMatch('unicorn', 'un*rn');
//=> true
matcher.isMatch('rainbow', '!unicorn');
//=> true
matcher.isMatch('foo bar baz', 'foo b* b*');
//=> true
matcher.isMatch('unicorn', 'uni\\*');
//=> false
matcher.isMatch('UNICORN', 'UNI*', {caseSensitive: true});
//=> true
matcher.isMatch('UNICORN', 'unicorn', {caseSensitive: true});
//=> false
Accepts an array of input

Type: string
String to match.
Type: object
Type: boolean
Default: false
Treat uppercase and lowercase characters as being the same.
Ensure you use this correctly. For example, files and directories should be matched case-insensitively, while most often, object keys should be matched case-sensitively.
Type: string
Use *
to match zero or more characters. A pattern starting with !
will be negated.
