gulp variable Variable names

Question

I need to select a group of files in various locations that all end similarly with gulp , my project has the following lay out

Areas
- Booking
--Emails
---BookingEmail_Html_v1.cshtml
---BookingEmail_Text_v1.cshtml
- Allerts
--Emails
---AlertEmail_Html_v2.cshtml
---AlertEmail_Text_v3.cshtml

and i need to select only the Html files from both email sub directories, i have tried the following but as i guessed it did not work.

return del('Areas/*/Emails/*_html_v*.cshtml');

Is there any way to do this?

Answer 1

Try this:

return del('Areas/**/Emails/*_Html_v*.cshtlm');

and make sure your task is in the same folder as Areas since you are calling it directly, else specify the right path to Areas .
You would notice the ** and that's for matching any folder.
