# is-extglob [![NPM version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/is-extglob.svg?style=flat)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/is-extglob) [![NPM downloads](https://img.shields.io/npm/dm/is-extglob.svg?style=flat)](https://npmjs.org/package/is-extglob) [![Build Status](https://img.shields.io/travis/jonschlinkert/is-extglob.svg?style=flat)](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/is-extglob)
> Returns true if a string has an extglob.
## Install
Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):
```sh $ npm install --save is-extglob ```
## Usage
```js var isExtglob = require('is-extglob'); ```
**True**
```js isExtglob('?(abc)'); isExtglob('@(abc)'); isExtglob('!(abc)'); isExtglob('*(abc)'); isExtglob('+(abc)'); ```
**False**
Escaped extglobs:
```js isExtglob('\\?(abc)'); isExtglob('\\@(abc)'); isExtglob('\\!(abc)'); isExtglob('\\*(abc)'); isExtglob('\\+(abc)'); ```
Everything else...
```js isExtglob('foo.js'); isExtglob('!foo.js'); isExtglob('*.js'); isExtglob('**/abc.js'); isExtglob('abc/*.js'); isExtglob('abc/(aaa|bbb).js'); isExtglob('abc/[a-z].js'); isExtglob('abc/{a,b}.js'); isExtglob('abc/?.js'); isExtglob('abc.js'); isExtglob('abc/def/ghi.js'); ```
## History
**v2.0**
Adds support for escaping. Escaped exglobs no longer return true.
