Filter paths by a glob
API · /glob-api
Glob API
Match file paths against glob patterns — the same wildcard language used by .gitignore, CI/CD path filters, build tools and the shell. Test whether a single path matches a pattern, or filter a whole list of paths down to the ones that match. Full minimatch support: * (within a segment) and ** (across segments), ? for one character, [abc] character classes, {a,b,c} brace expansion and extended globs, with options for case-insensitivity, matching dotfiles and basename-only matching. Perfect for path-based rules, file selection, route guards, allow/deny lists and config validation. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant; send large lists via POST. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. Distinct from regular-expression testing and from JSON path queries.

gitignore API
Generate .gitignore files as an API — 309 ready-to-use .gitignore templates for languages, frameworks, tools and editors, straight from GitHub's official github/gitignore collection. Fetch the .gitignore for any single technology (Node, Python, Java, Rust, Unity, …), search and list all available templates by name or category (languages, editors/OS globals, community stacks), or — the headline feature — combine several templates into one ready-to-commit .gitignore in a single call (e.g. names=Node,Python,macOS). Ideal for scaffolding tools, project generators, IDEs, CLIs and developer dashboards. Open data from github/gitignore (CC0).

Programming Languages API
The language definitions GitHub uses to recognise code (the open-source Linguist data) as an API — a clean reference for syntax highlighting, file-type detection, repository dashboards and developer tooling. For each of 800+ languages the API returns its type (programming, markup, data or prose), its brand colour (the hex GitHub paints it), the file extensions associated with it, common aliases, the GitHub language id and the editor (ace) mode. Look a language up by name or alias (golang resolves to Go), reverse-look-up which language(s) own a file extension (.py → Python; .h → C, C++, Objective-C), list the languages of a type, search, or list them all. Distinct from languages-api (ISO 639 human languages) — this is the programming-language reference. Served from memory — always fast.

MIME Types API
The canonical MIME / media-type database (the jshttp mime-db used by Express and most of the Node ecosystem: IANA + Apache + nginx), served from memory — no key. Resolve a media type to its file extensions, charset and compressibility; reverse-lookup the media type(s) for a file extension (e.g. png → image/png); and search or list types by source. 2,600+ media types, 1,000+ with file extensions. Lean, predictable JSON. Ideal for upload validation, Content-Type resolution, file-type detection, download handlers and developer tooling.

MusicBrainz API
The open music-metadata database as an API — artists, release-groups (albums), releases, recordings and labels, identified by stable MusicBrainz IDs (MBIDs), returned as clean JSON. Search any entity by name or Lucene query; look up an artist with their external links and tags, an album, a release with its full track list, a recording with its ISRCs, or a label; and browse an artist's complete discography. Live data with MBIDs, disambiguations, types, countries, life spans, ISRCs, barcodes, catalogue numbers and relations — the canonical identifiers that link and de-duplicate music data across services. Ideal for metadata enrichment and matching, music catalogues, tagging and library tools, and research. 11 data endpoints. Authenticated with an x-oanor-key; fair-use rate limits per plan.
