# is-extglob [](https://www.npmjs.com/package/is-extglob) [](https://npmjs.org/package/is-extglob) [](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.
