Use `folder_exclude_patterns` to only ignore top-level directory

I have a directory structure:

app
--controllers
----components
components

And in my sublime text 2 project file I want to ignore the top-level components directory (which was created by a bower install while keeping access to the components directory in controllers.

How do I do this? Here's my current sublime settings:

{
  "folders":
  [
    {
      "path": "/path/to/Project",
      "folder_exclude_patterns": ["cake", "vendor", "node_modules", "components"],
      "file_exclude_patterns": ["*.sublime-workspace"]
    }
  ]
}
Solution

  • You can add additional paths to members of the folder_exclude_patterns array:

    "folder_exclude_patterns": ["cake", "vendor", "node_modules", "Project/components"],

    should work just fine.
