Node/Globmatch Native

1.0.2Last update Aug 29, 2024
by@manishjha-04

This codemod automates the migration of glob-matching functions like minimatch, micromatch, and picomatch to Node.js's native matchesGlob support in LTS version 20.17.0.

Detailed Description

With Node.js 20.17.0 introducing experimental native support for glob matching, there's no longer a need to rely on third-party libraries like minimatch and micromatch. npx codemod node/globmatch-native simplifies the process of updating your codebase to leverage this new feature, ensuring more efficient and streamlined path matching without the overhead of additional dependencies. The tool automatically refactors your code, replacing instances of these libraries with the new native method, helping you keep your codebase up-to-date with the latest Node.js features.

Example

Before

import minimatch from 'minimatch';
const filePath = 'src/app.js';
const pattern = '**/*.js';
if (minimatch(filePath, pattern)) {
console.log('File matches the pattern');
}

After

import path from 'path';
const filePath = 'src/app.js';
const pattern = '**/*.js';
if (path.matchesGlob(filePath, pattern)) {
console.log('File matches the pattern');
}

Before

import micromatch from 'micromatch';
const files = ['src/app.js', 'src/index.js', 'src/styles.css'];
const pattern = '**/*.js';
const matchedFiles = micromatch(files, pattern);
console.log(matchedFiles);

After

import path from 'path';
const files = ['src/app.js', 'src/index.js', 'src/styles.css'];
const pattern = '**/*.js';
const matchedFiles = files.filter((file) => path.matchesGlob(file, pattern));
console.log(matchedFiles);
