[![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url] [![Downloads][downloads-image]][npm-url] [![Build Status][ci-image]][ci-url] [![Coveralls Status][coveralls-image]][coveralls-url]

Find the first file matching a given pattern in the current directory or the nearest ancestor directory.

Matching is done with [micromatch][micromatch], please report any matching related issues on that repository.

## Usage

```js
var findup = require('findup-sync');
findup(patternOrPatterns [, micromatchOptions]);

// Start looking in the CWD.
var filepath1 = findup('{a,b}*.txt');

// Start looking somewhere else, and ignore case (probably a good idea).
var filepath2 = findup('{a,b}*.txt', {cwd: '/some/path', nocase: true});
```

## API

### `findup(patterns, [options])`

- `patterns` **{String|Array}**: Glob pattern(s) or file path(s) to match against.
- `options` **{Object}**: Options to pass to [micromatch]. Note that if you want to start in a different directory than the current working directory, specify a `cwd` property here.
- `returns` **{String}**: Returns the first matching file.
