Ability to ignore files for parsing

[nevadascout]

Being able to ignore a set of files from parsing would bypass the smarty issues (#76) and would generally be a nice feature.

• Ignore an array of files
• Ignore an array of folders

I think this would be a great use of #64 (adding a phpconfig.json).

[michalhudecek]

Yes, this would be perfect. It would be a workaround for plenty of bugs with stuck indexing.

[michalhudecek]

@nevadascout Wouldn't this be much faster than waiting on update of php-parser?

[nevadascout]

@michalhudecek Yes, it would... Adding this to next release!

[michalhudecek]

@nevadascout Any ETA for the next release?

[nevadascout]

Not sure, a few weeks maybe.

Could create a minor release with this feature in the short term though...

[michalhudecek]

That would be great

[nevadascout]

Added in the v0.2.2 release

[michalhudecek]

@nevadascout Great. Thanks a lot. I tried to use it and set up this in settings:

    "crane.ignoredPaths": [
        "/vendor/evernote/*"
    ]

But it still gets stuck while indexing Evernote. What am I doing wrong?

[michalhudecek]

@nevadascout Is there any documentation for the settings for this feature? Am I doing something wrong?

[TheColorRed]

@michalhudecek Try this:

 "crane.ignoredPaths": [
        "vendor/evernote"
    ]

Or this:

 "crane.ignoredPaths": [
        "vendor/evernote/**"
    ]

[nevadascout]

@michalhudecek Sorry, I saw this but forgot to reply!

As @TheColorRed's code shows, I think it's because you've got a / at the start of the path

I am a total noob to vscode. Where do I find phpconfig.json to configure crane.ignoredPaths?

[edit]
Read the source code and found this reference:
public static craneSettings = workspace.getConfiguration("crane");
in crane/client/src/utils/Config.ts

For other noob, the configuration is located in vscode > FIle > Preferences > Workspace Settings

I tried both @TheColorRed suggestions but still loading cache folders. Any suggestions ?
