Support file globbing for @imports

See: https://github.com/isaacs/node-glob, and ~~https://github.com/isaacs/minimatch~~ https://github.com/jonschlinkert/micromatch

I use these often in projects. It would be pretty awesome to be able to do the following and not have to specify individual files:

@import "mixins/*.less";
@import "components/**/*.less"; 

After only a few minutes of using these patterns they become second nature. It might even help with some of the other import issues.

Implemented via plugin: less-plugin-glob.

Because I can’t wait resolution of this issue anymore, I write plugin which does it, and use it for my projects. https://github.com/just-boris/less-plugin-glob Less allow to create custom file loaders for @imports. I’ve create this one which resolves imports with globs in import path. Any feedback will be appreciated.

For globbing in less you can simple simple run this in your project,

npm install less-plugin-glob --save-dev

then add this to your Gruntfile in the options group of your less task

plugins: [require('less-plugin-glob')]

The result is something like this:

···
options: {
    compress: true,
    yuicompress: true,
    optimization: 2,
    cleancss: true,
    sourceMap: false,
    sourceMapFilename: 'css/maps/style.css.map',
    plugins: [require('less-plugin-glob')]
},
···

Now in your .less file you can write this:

···
@import "commons/**/*";
@import "basic/**/*";
···
