File Collector

A simple program to programmatically output an array of files. This is useful when you need a list of files but manually compiling a list would be too labour intensive. Basically fs.readdir() with options.

Installation

npm install -g file-collector

Usage

file-collector [path=[path]] [exclude=[exclude]] [filter=[filter]] [extension=[extension]]

Running file-collector with no arguments will output a .js file in the current working directory that exports an array of all files in the current working directory. Currently the program ignores folders and only outputs files. To specify a different directory to scan, use the argument path=[path].

To exclude files that contain a term use the argument exclude=[term].

To return only files that contain a term, use the argument filter=[term].

To return only files of a certain file extension use the argument extension=.[extension].

E.g:

file-collector exclude=personal extension=.html

The order that options are specified does not matter.
