re

Regular expression to split a filename.

var parts;

// On a POSIX platform...
parts = re.exec( '/foo/bar/index.js' );
/*
	[
		'/foo/bar/index.js',   // input value
		'/',                   // root
		'foo/bar/',            // dirname
		'index.js',            // basename
		'.js'                  // extname
	]
*/

// On a Windows platform...
parts = re.exec( 'C:\\foo\\bar\\index.js' );
/*
	[
		'C:\\foo\\bar\\index.js',   // input value
		'C:',                       // device
		'\\',                       // slash
		'foo\\bar\\',               // dirname
		'index.js',                 // basename
		'.js'                       // extname
	]
*/

re.posix

Regular expression to split a POSIX filename.

re.win32

Regular expression to split a Windows filename.

Notes

• The main exported regular expression is platform-dependent. If the current process is running on Windows, re === re.win32; otherwise, re === re.posix.

Examples

var re = require( 'regex-filename' );

var parts;

// Assuming a POSIX platform...
parts = re.exec( 'index.js' );
console.log( parts );
/*
	[
		'index.js',
		'',
		'',
		'index.js',
		'.js'
	]
*/

parts = re.posix.exec( '/foo/bar/home.html' );
console.log( parts );
/*
	[
		'/foo/bar/home.html',
		'/',
		'foo/bar/',
		'home.html',
		'.html'
	]
*/

parts = re.win32.exec( 'C:\\foo\\bar\\home.html' );
console.log( parts );
/*
	[
		'C:\\foo\\bar\\home.html',
		'C:',
		'\\',
		'foo\\bar\\',
		'home.html',
		'.html'
	]
*/

To run the example code from the top-level application directory,

$ node ./examples/index.js

Tests

Unit

Unit tests use the Mocha test framework with Chai assertions. To run the tests, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

$ make test

All new feature development should have corresponding unit tests to validate correct functionality.

Test Coverage

This repository uses Istanbul as its code coverage tool. To generate a test coverage report, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

$ make test-cov

Istanbul creates a ./reports/coverage directory. To access an HTML version of the report,

$ make view-cov
