为什么相同的通配符在 shell 和 npm 脚本中表现不同？

Question

I want use ./src/**/*.js to match every js file in ./src folder,no matter how deep the file path is.

so I run ls ./src/**/*.js in the shell and the wildcards behave as I expected, js files like ./src/path1/a.js ./src/path1/path2/b.js and both matched.

And then I add npm script in package.json

{
  scripts: {
    "test": "ls ./src/**/*.js"
  }
}

run npm run test . But now only files like ./src/pah1/a.js are matched.

I don't know why same wildcards behave differently.Can anyone tell me what is the right wildcards that I can use to match every js files in one folder.

Thank you.

They're just different. Shells don't expand ** . Try find ./src -name '*.js' , instead.
