Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

node-merge-collect-files

v0.3.1

Published

Merge two or more directories and collect the filenames.

Readme

node-merge-collect-files

Description

Node module to merge two or more directories and collect the filenames.
Files can be optionally filtered using a glob pattern.

Usage

To install this module in your current working directory (which should already contain a package.json), run

npm install node-merge-collect-files

You can additionally just list the module in your package.json and run npm install.

Then, require this package where you need it:

var mergeCollectFiles = require('node-merge-collect-files');

The syntax for collecting merged files of two or more directories is as follows:

var files = mergeCollectFiles( [ 'directory-one', 'directory-two' ], '**/*.json' );

The glob pattern can also be an array.

var files = mergeCollectFiles( [ 'directory-one', 'directory-two' ], ['**/*.json', '**/*.js'] );

If you would like to pass some glob options, use the third parameter.

var files = mergeCollectFiles( [ 'directory-one', 'directory-two' ], ['**/*.json', '**/*.js'], { dot: false } );

The default glob options are:

{
	cwd: basePath,
	nonull: false,
	dot: true
}
