README
matcher 
Simple wildcard matching
Useful when you want to accept loose string input and regexes/globs are too convoluted.
Install
$ npm install matcher
Usage
const matcher = require('matcher');
matcher(['foo', 'bar', 'moo'], ['*oo', '!foo']);
//=> ['moo']
matcher(['foo', 'bar', 'moo'], ['!*oo']);
//=> ['bar']
matcher.isMatch('unicorn', 'uni*');
//=> true
matcher.isMatch('unicorn', '*corn');
//=> true
matcher.isMatch('unicorn', 'un*rn');
//=> true
matcher.isMatch('rainbow', '!unicorn');
//=> true
matcher.isMatch('foo bar baz', 'foo b* b*');
//=> true
matcher.isMatch('unicorn', 'uni\\*');
//=> false
matcher.isMatch('UNICORN', 'UNI*', {caseSensitive: true});
//=> true
matcher.isMatch('UNICORN', 'unicorn', {caseSensitive: true});
//=> false
matcher.isMatch(['foo', 'bar'], 'f*');
//=> true
matcher.isMatch(['foo', 'bar'], ['a*', 'b*']);
//=> true
matcher.isMatch('unicorn', ['tri*', 'UNI*'], {caseSensitive: true});

It matches even across newlines. For example, foo*r will match foo\nbar.
matcher(inputs, patterns, options?)
Accepts an array of input's and pattern's.
Returns an array of inputs filtered based on the patterns.
matcher.isMatch(input, pattern, options?)
Accepts either a string or array of strings for both input and pattern.
Returns a boolean of whether any given input matches every given pattern.
input
Type: string | string[]
String or array of strings to match.
options
Type: object
caseSensitive
Type: boolean\
Default: false
Treat uppercase and lowercase characters as being the same.
Ensure you use this correctly. For example, files and directories should be matched case-insensitively, while most often, object keys should be matched case-sensitively.
pattern
Type: string | string[]
Use * to match zero or more characters. A pattern starting with ! will be negated.
