# to-absolute-glob [](http://badge.fury.io/js/to-absolute-glob)
> Make a glob pattern absolute, ensuring that negative globs and patterns with trailing slashes are correctly handled.
## Install
Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/)
```sh
$ npm i to-absolute-glob --save
```
## Usage
```js
var toAbsGlob = require('to-absolute-glob');
toAbsGlob('a/*.js');
//=> '/dev/foo/a/*.js'
```
## Examples
Given the current project folder (cwd) is `/dev/foo/`:
**makes a path absolute**
```js
toAbsGlob('a');
//=> '/dev/foo/a'
```
**makes a glob absolute**
```js
toAbsGlob('a/*.js');
//=> '/dev/foo/a/*.js'
```
**retains trailing slashes**
```js
toAbsGlob('a/*/');
//=> '/dev/foo/a/*/'
```
**retains trailing slashes with cwd**
```js
toAbsGlob('./fixtures/whatsgoingon/*/', {cwd: __dirname});
//=> '/dev/foo/'
```
**makes a negative glob absolute**
```js
toAbsGlob('!a/*.js');
//=> '!/dev/foo/a/*.js'
```
**from a cwd**
```js
toAbsGlob('a/*.js', {cwd: 'foo'});
//=> '/dev/foo/foo/a/*.js'
```
**makes a negative glob absolute from a cwd**
```js
toAbsGlob('!a/*.js', {cwd: 'foo'});
//=> '!/dev/foo/foo/a/*.js'
```
**from a root path**
```js
toAbsGlob('/a/*.js', {root: 'baz'});
//=> '/dev/foo/baz/a/*.js'
```
**from a root slash**
```js
toAbsGlob('/a/*.js', {root: '/'});
//=> '/dev/foo/a/*.js'
```
**from a negative root path**
```js
toAbsGlob('!/a/*.js', {root: 'baz'});
//=> '!/dev/foo/baz/a/*.js'
```
**from a negative root slash**
```js
toAbsGlob('!/a/*.js', {root: '/'});
//=> '!/dev/foo/a/*.js'
```
