Enabled is a small utility that can check if certain namespace are enabled by
environment variables which are automatically transformed to regular expressions
for matching.
## Installation
The module is release in the public npm registry and can be used in browsers and
servers as it uses plain ol ES3 to make the magic work.
```
npm install --save enabled
```
## Usage
First of all make sure you've required the module using:
```js
'use strict';
var enabled = require('enabled');
```
The returned `enabled` function accepts 2 arguments.
1. `name` **string**, The namespace that should match.
2. `pattern` **string**, The pattern that the name should satisfy
It will return a boolean indication of a match.
#### Examples
```js
var flag = 'foo';
enabled('foo', flag); // true;
enabled('bar', flag); // false;
//
// Use * for wild cards.
//
var wildcard = 'foob*';
enabled('foobar', wildcard); // true;
enabled('barfoo', wildcard); // false;
//
// Use - to ignore.
//
var ignore = 'foobar,-shizzle,nizzle';
enabled('foobar', ignore); // true;
enabled('shizzle-my-nizzle', ignore); // false;
enabled('nizzle', ignore); // true;
```
