README

GitignoreChecker is a PHP library to check if a given paths is ignored by GIT.

USAGE

Initialize an object, providing the GIT repository root folder:

$gitIgnoreChecker = new GitIgnoreChecker(__DIR__);

You can now easily check if a given path is ignored by some .gitignore rule, with:

 $gitIgnoreChecker->isPathIgnored('/foo');  // true|false
 $gitIgnoreChecker->isPathIgnored('/README');
 $gitIgnoreChecker->isPathIgnored('/foo/bar');
 $gitIgnoreChecker->isPathIgnored('/foo/bar/baz');
 $gitIgnoreChecker->isPathIgnored('/.foo');
 ...

RUN TESTS

After making sure you installed dependencies with command composer install, you can run tests by executing:

php bin/phpunit

or executing:

composer test

Todo:

• do more tests: figure out some more cases and edge cases and add them to the current test suite

Done:

• handled most common gitignore, including the ones:
  • including subfolders, eg.foo/bar
  • including *, eg.foo/*/bar
  • including **, eg.foo/**/bar
  • beginning with !
  • beginning with #
  • beginning with \#
