glob-concat-cli

A command-line interface for concatenating files leveraging fast-glob.

Key features

• Concatenates files on the command line
• Supports robust glob patterns via fast-glob
• Allows empty files to be ignored (great for use with automated build tools)
• Can output to stdout or a file
• Provides a sourcemap for the concatenated files by default

Install

npm install --dev glob-concat-cli

yarn add --dev glob-concat-cli

API

files

Type: string[] Alias: f Required: true

The files to concatenate. Supports glob patterns via fast-glob. This is the only required option.

output

Type: string Alias: o Default: stdout

The file to output the concatenated files to. If not provided, the concatenated files will be output to stdout.

allowEmpty

Type: boolean Alias: ae Default: true

Whether to fail the command if no files are found or if any of the provided inputs can't be found. If set to true, the command will exit with a status code of 0 and no output will be written.

sourcemap

Type: boolean Alias: map Default: true

Whether to output a sourcemap for the concatenated files. If set to false, no sourcemap will be written to disk.

Other supported options

When leveraging this package, you can also pass in any of the options supported by fast-glob.

Due to how this utility is built, the following options are not supported:

• onlyDirectories (this is always set to false because this utility is meant to concatenate files)
• stats
• objectMode
