glob pattern not working?

[mehl321]

I put this command in my package.json file: "lint": "standard src/**/*.js*" and when I run it the errors contained in my src subfolders are found but not those contained in the root of src.

How can I make this work everywhere?

This is because your shell (bash, zsh, etc.) is expanding the double star ** differently than how standard does it (using the glob npm package).

This shell expansion is happening automatically before standard gets invoked.

You can pass through the string unmodified by your shell if you do this:

"lint": "standard 'src/**/*.js*'"

(note the quotes around the glob)

Cheers!

Fantastic! I didn't know this trick.
