Block Finder combines glob-based file scans with regex-based token matches to find, parse, and extract multiline heredoc patterns from text files … and it does it really fast.
[~] npm i block-finder// modules
const bf = require('block-finder');
// configure options
const options = {
cwd: '.',
glob: '**/*.(js|md)',
ignore: '**/node_modules',
start: '/** START **/',
stop: '/** STOP **/',
};
// promise
bf(options).then(console.log).catch(console.error);
// callback
bf(options, (err, results) => (!!err) ? console.error(err) : console.log(results));
// sync
try {
console.log(bf({ ...options, mode: 'sync' }));
} catch (err) {
console.error(err);
