Include / exclude globes for gulp.src
I am trying to set up a glob array for my javascript concat build task in gulp. The directory structure looks like this:
├── about
│ └── about.js
├── assets
├── contact
├── core
│ ├── navbar
│ │ ├── navbar.js
│ │ └── navbar.test.js
│ ├── routing.js
│ ├── routing.test.js
│ ├── utils.js
│ └── utils.test.js
├── generated
│ ├── footer.js
│ ├── header.js
│ └── templates.js
├── home
├── app.js
└── config.js
The order of the files is important:
- generated /header.js
- app.js
- any of the * .js files other than the ones below
- generated /templates.js
- generated /footer.js
I've been madly trying all sorts of wildcard combinations, but flashing isn't great with me.
var inputFiles = [
'generated/header.js',
'app.js',
'!(generated)**/*.js', // <=---- ???
'generated/templates.js',
'generated/footer.js',
'!**/*.test.js'
];
So how do I include all *.js
files except those in a subdirectory?
Thank.

Best I have come up with:
var gulp = require('gulp');
var tap = require('gulp-tap');
gulp.task('default', function() {
return gulp.src([
'generated/header.js',
'app.js',
'*.js',
'./!(generated)/**/*.js', // <- All subdirs except 'generated'
'generated/{templates,footer}.js',
'!**/*.test.js',
'!node_modules/**'
]).pipe(tap(function(file) {
console.log(file.path);
}));
});
Run:
∴ glob-test gulp
[20:07:51] Using gulpfile ~/Desktop/glob-test/gulpfile.js

The main trick is to avoid "!" character at the beginning of a glob when including files.

"If the pattern starts with!, Then it is negated."
ps. The placement of negative balls is irrelevant. They always move to the end backstage.
