# matcher [](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/matcher)
> Simple [wildcard](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildcard_character) matching
Useful when you want to accept loose string input and regexes/globs are too convoluted.
## Install
```
$ npm install --save matcher
```
## Usage
```js
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
```
## API
