README

wildcard

Very simple wildcard matching, which is designed to provide the same functionality that is found in the eve eventing library.

NPM

Build Status stable

NOTE

Work on this project is largely inactive, now so I'd recommend checking out the wonderful matcher package as a solid alternative.

Usage

It works with strings:

var wildcard = require('wildcard');

console.log(wildcard('foo.*', 'foo.bar'));
// --> true

console.log(wildcard('foo.*', 'foo'));
// --> true

Arrays:

var wildcard = require('wildcard');
var testdata = [
  'a.b.c',
  'a.b',
  'a',
  'a.b.d'
];

console.log(wildcard('a.b.*', testdata));
// --> ['a.b.c', 'a.b', 'a.b.d']

Objects (matching against keys):

var wildcard = require('wildcard');
var testdata = {
  'a.b.c' : {},
  'a.b'   : {},
  'a'     : {},
  'a.b.d' : {}
};

console.log(wildcard('a.*.c', testdata));
// --> { 'a.b.c': {} }
