Grunt Globbing模式

Question

What is the pattern needed to achieve the following.

1. Match all the html file in the directory .tmp
2. Match all the html file in .tmp/views and all subdirectories of it (recursively to any depth)

This is to register livereload task in Grunt file.

I tried few varieties of below config. It matches all files in .tmp , but not recursively in .tmp/views

Also tried,

 '.tmp/{,views/**/}*.html'

but the same result.

  livereload: { options: { livereload: LIVERELOAD_PORT }, files: [ '.tmp/{,views/**}*.html' ] } 

Answer 1

You should be able to get the matching you need by passing two elements in the files array:

files: [
    '.tmp/*.html',
    '.tmp/views/**/*.html',
]

This will match any .html files directly below .tmp/ , as well as any .html file in .tmp/views/ , whether directly under that directory or deeper (the /**/ part).
