### Install globby

Source: https://github.com/sindresorhus/globby/blob/main/readme.md

Installs the globby package using npm. This is the first step to using globby in your Node.js project.

```sh
npm install globby
```

--------------------------------

### Expand directories with globby

Source: https://github.com/sindresorhus/globby/blob/main/readme.md

Shows how to use the `expandDirectories` option in globby. This example expands the 'images' directory and filters by specific file patterns and extensions.

```javascript
import {globby} from 'globby';

const paths = await globby('images', {
	expandDirectories: {
		files: ['cat', 'unicorn', '*.jpg'],
		extensions: ['png']
	}
});

console.log(paths);
//=> ['cat.png', 'unicorn.png', 'cow.jpg', 'rainbow.jpg']
```

--------------------------------

### Basic globby usage

Source: https://github.com/sindresorhus/globby/blob/main/readme.md

Demonstrates the basic usage of globby to find files. It uses a Promise API to asynchronously return an array of matching file paths, excluding 'cake'.

```javascript
import {globby} from 'globby';

const paths = await globby(['*', '!cake']);

console.log(paths);
//=> ['unicorn', 'rainbow']
```

--------------------------------

### Stream glob matches with globbyStream

Source: https://github.com/sindresorhus/globby/blob/main/readme.md

Illustrates using `globbyStream` to process glob matches as a readable stream. This is useful for handling large numbers of files efficiently using async iteration.

```javascript
import {globbyStream} from 'globby';

for await (const path of globbyStream('*.tmp')) {
	console.log(path);
}
```

--------------------------------

### Check if path is ignored by ignore files (Async)

Source: https://github.com/sindresorhus/globby/blob/main/readme.md

The `isIgnoredByIgnoreFiles` function returns a promise that resolves to a boolean indicating if a path is ignored by ignore files. It's a generic version of `isGitIgnored` and supports ignore files with compatible syntax, such as `.babelignore` or `.prettierignore`. It takes an optional `cwd` option.

```JavaScript
import {isIgnoredByIgnoreFiles} from 'globby';

const isIgnored = await isIgnoredByIgnoreFiles("**/.gitignore");

console.log(isIgnored('some/file'));
```

--------------------------------

### Check if path is git ignored with isGitIgnored

Source: https://github.com/sindresorhus/globby/blob/main/readme.md

Demonstrates how to use `isGitIgnored` to check if a file path is ignored by Git. It returns a promise that resolves to a function which takes a path and returns a boolean.

```javascript
import {isGitIgnored} from 'globby';

const isIgnored = await isGitIgnored();

console.log(isIgnored('some/file'));
```

--------------------------------

### Check if path is ignored by ignore files (Sync)

Source: https://github.com/sindresorhus/globby/blob/main/readme.md

The `isIgnoredByIgnoreFilesSync` function returns a boolean indicating if a path is ignored by ignore files. It's the synchronous counterpart to `isIgnoredByIgnoreFiles` and supports ignore files with compatible syntax, such as `.babelignore` or `.prettierignore`. It takes an optional `cwd` option.

```JavaScript
import {isIgnoredByIgnoreFilesSync} from 'globby';

const isIgnored = isIgnoredByIgnoreFilesSync("**/.gitignore");

console.log(isIgnored('some/file'));
```
