Grunt JS how to target * all folders

Question

This src doesn't appear to target anything/returns nothing.

src: ['docroot/components/*/*.js']

rather than this

src: ['docroot/components/pages/*.js', 'docroot/components/plugins/*.js']

Is it possible to target random folders?

Answer 1

You should use double stars : src: ['docroot/components/**/*.js']

Note the double star for folders. If you want to limit to one folder deep scanning you can use src: ['docroot/components/{,*/}*.js'] this can help with performance if needed.
