metalsmith-filter

A Metalsmith plugin for filtering source files

I wanted a function that worked the opposite of Metalsmith's ignore() function. This plugin will filter out files that don't match the supplied glob patterns. As a side effect of using multimatch instead of minimatch, you can use it as a replacement for Metalsmith.ignore for multiple patterns instead of calling ignore multiple times.

Install

``` npm install metalsmith-filter ```

Usage

Simply pass a single pattern or array of patterns, à la multimatch. You can optionally pass a second pattern of options as per minimatch instructions.

Process only Markdown files.

```javascript var filter = require('metalsmith-filter'); Metalsmith(dirname)

.use(filter('**/*.md'))

.build();

```

Process anything but images.

```javascript var filter = require('metalsmith-filter'); Metalsmith(dirname)

.use(filter([ '*', '!**/*.jpg', '!**/*.gif', '!**/*.png', '!**/*.webp' ]))

.build();

```

Pass options to minimatch.

```javascript var filter = require('metalsmith-filter'); Metalsmith(dirname)

.use(filter('*.html', { debug: true }))

.build();

```
