The @types/glob package, version 5.0.29, provides TypeScript definitions for the Glob library (specifically targeting Glob version 5.0.10). Crucially, this package allows TypeScript developers to leverage the Glob library's powerful file pattern matching capabilities within their TypeScript projects, enabling type safety and improved code maintainability.
This version has dependencies on specific versions of other type definition packages: @types/node (version 4.0.*) and @types/minimatch (version 2.0.*). These dependencies ensure compatibility with prevalent Node.js APIs and the underlying minimatch library used by Glob for its core matching functionality. Developers upgrading or installing should ensure that their project's @types/node and @types/minimatch packages meet these version requirements to avoid potential type conflicts.
The package is licensed under the MIT license, offering developers broad freedom in its usage. Maintained within the DefinitelyTyped repository, it reflects a community-driven effort to provide accurate and up-to-date type definitions for the broader JavaScript ecosystem.
Designed for TypeScript developers working with file system operations, @types/glob enhances their ability to interact with Glob’s pattern matching features in a type-safe manner. This is an older version published in July 2016, therefore is important verify if this version works correctly with the current dependencies used on the project.
