A fstream DirReader that filters out files that match globs in .ignore
files throughout the tree, like how git ignores files based on a .gitignore
file.
Here's an example:
var Ignore = require("fstream-ignore") Ignore({ path: __dirname , ignoreFiles: [".ignore", ".gitignore"] }) .on("child", function (c) { console.error(c.path.substr(c.root.path.length + 1)) }) .pipe(tar.Pack()) .pipe(fs.createWriteStream("foo.tar"))
This will tar up the files in __dirname into foo.tar
, ignoring anything matched by the globs in any .iginore or .gitignore file.
