transform-filter

Filter browserify transforms using glob patterns.

install

npm install transform-filter

usage

suspend your disbelief for a second and pretend that coffeeify didn't filter the files itself:

var filterCoffee = filterTransform( coffeeify, {
  include: ['**/*.coffee'],  // only run transform on matching files
  exclude: ['**/subdir/**'], // because you don't want coffee files in `subdir` processed for some reason.
  base: '/'                  // glob patterns matched relative to this `base` (defaults to process.cwd())
});

• include defaults to matching everything (i.e. everything is included).

• exclude defaults to matching nothing (i.e. nothing is excluded).

• You can use a ! as the first character of any pattern to negate it

  exclude:['tests/**','!tests/utils.js'] excludes everything in the tests directory except utils.js

• Patterns can be a string, array of strings, null or undefined.

• base option is computed relative to process.cwd(). base:'..' would match from the parent directory. Use a leading / for absolute urls.

• Exclude takes precedent over include.

If you need more control than glob patterns offer, check out filter-transform.

It offers similar filtering via a user supplied callback, and sparked the idea behind this module.
