asString

asString(matcher: minimatch.IMinimatch): string

- Defined in src/lib/utils/matcher.ts:100
Converts a parsed Minimatch pattern back to a string.

Parameters
- matcher: minimatch.IMinimatch
  
  Parsed Minimatch pattern to stringify.
Returns string

String corresponding to matcher.

join

join(prefix: string, matcher: minimatch.IMinimatch): minimatch.IMinimatch

- Defined in src/lib/utils/matcher.ts:80
Joins a prefix (POSIX path) with a parsed Minimatch pattern.

It can be used to restrict a Minimatch pattern to a subdirectory:
```
const jsFiles = new Minimatch("**\/*.js");
const jsFilesInBuildExample = join("build/example", jsFiles);
```
This acts as a generalization of Node's path.join over Minimatch patterns.

If the Minimatch pattern is a comment or can be interpreted as an absolute POSIX path (ie. starts with /), an unprefixed copy of matcher is returned.
Parameters
- prefix: string
  
  Left side of the join, must be a POSIX path (relative or absolute)
- matcher: minimatch.IMinimatch
  
  Parsed Minimatch pattern.
Returns minimatch.IMinimatch

New Minimatch pattern resulting from joining prefix with matcher.
