# parse-glob [](http://badge.fury.io/js/parse-glob) [](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/parse-glob)
> Parse a glob pattern into an object of tokens.
**Changes from v1.0.0 to v3.0.4**
* all path-related properties are now on the `path` object
* all boolean properties are now on the `is` object
* adds `base` property
See the [properties](#properties) section for details.
Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/)
```sh
$ npm i parse-glob --save
```
* parses 1,000+ glob patterns in 29ms (2.3 GHz Intel Core i7)
* Extensive [unit tests](./test.js) (more than 1,000 lines), covering wildcards, globstars, character classes, brace patterns, extglobs, dotfiles and other complex patterns.
See the tests for [hundreds of examples](./test.js).
## Usage
```js
var parseGlob = require('parse-glob');
```
**Example**
```js
parseGlob('a/b/c/**/*.{yml,json}');
```
**Returns:**
```js
{ orig: 'a/b/c/**/*.{yml,json}',
is:
{ glob: true,
negated: false,
extglob: false,
braces: true,
brackets: false,
globstar: true,
dotfile: false,
dotdir: false },
glob: '**/*.{yml,json}',
base: 'a/b/c',
path:
{ dirname: 'a/b/c/**/',
basename: '*.{yml,json}',
filename: '*',
extname: '.{yml,json}',
ext: '{yml,json}' } }
```
## Properties
The object returned by parseGlob has the following properties:
* `orig`: a copy of the original, unmodified glob pattern
* `is`: an object with boolean information about the glob:
- `glob`: true if the pattern actually a glob pattern
- `negated`: true if it's a negation pattern (`!**/foo.js`)
- `extglob`: true if it has extglobs (`@(foo|bar)`)
- `braces`: true if it has braces (`{1..2}` or `.{txt,md}`)
- `brackets`: true if it has POSIX brackets (`[[:alpha:]]`)
- `globstar`: true if the pattern has a globstar (double star, `**`)
- `dotfile`: true if the pattern should match dotfiles
- `dotdir`: true if the pattern should match dot-directories (like `.git`)
* `glob`: the glob pattern part of the string, if any
* `base`: the non-glob part of the string, if any
* `path`: file path segments
- `dirname`: directory
- `basename`: file name with extension
- `filename`: file name without extension
- `extname`: file extension with dot
- `ext`: file extension without dot
