3 Find the first file matching a given pattern in the current directory or the nearest ancestor directory.
6 Install the module with: `npm install findup-sync`
9 var findup = require('findup-sync');
11 // Start looking in the CWD.
12 var filepath1 = findup('{a,b}*.txt');
14 // Start looking somewhere else, and ignore case (probably a good idea).
15 var filepath2 = findup('{a,b}*.txt', {cwd: '/some/path', nocase: true});
21 findup(patternOrPatterns [, minimatchOptions])
25 Type: `String` or `Array`
28 One or more wildcard glob patterns. Or just filenames.
34 Options to be passed to [minimatch](https://github.com/isaacs/minimatch).
36 Note that if you want to start in a different directory than the current working directory, specify a `cwd` property here.
39 In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using [Grunt](http://gruntjs.com/).
