Details

Ignore list configuration

You can add an ignore list for files that you don't want to be uploaded on your CS. The configuration of this service is saved in the app.config.json file (see the App Config service for more information).

The example below shows how to filter out the : '.git', '.DS_Store' and 'desktop.ini' files. Each element of the ignore list is a glob pattern string, so you could exclude all the .txt files, for example, by adding a *.txt pattern to the list. You can also specify some more options about how to perform the check via the match-options parameter.

In the example below, we have added the nocase option (ie, ignore case when performing the glob match), so *.TXT will also match .txt, etc. For more information about the options available please check the documentation for the minimatch node module.

app.config.json

{
    "ecmHost": "http://localhost:3000/ecm",
    "bpmHost": "http://localhost:3000/bpm",
    "application": {
        "name": "Alfresco"
    },
    "files": {
          "excluded": [".DS_Store", "desktop.ini", ".git", "*.txt"],
          "match-options": {
            "nocase": true
          }
    }
}

From vesion 3.8.0 It's possible filter also for the folder whilst uploading a whole folder.

app.config.json

{
    "ecmHost": "http://localhost:3000/ecm",
    "bpmHost": "http://localhost:3000/bpm",
    "application": {
        "name": "Alfresco"
    },
    "folders": {
          "excluded": [".git"],
          "match-options": {
            "nocase": true
          }
    }
}

In this way all the files present in the .git folder won't be uploaded. Please note that the filtering options available for the folders is the same as the one for the files.
