Ignore files to transform in Gulpjs
29-09-2020 | #gulpjs
When you need to transform a group of files inside of multiple directory, you may want some files not to be transformed. You can do this with negative globs in the src
function.
We will create a task to copy all CSS files in our project to the output directory. But we don't want CSS files in node_modules
and output directory to be proceeded
const { src, dest } = require("gulp");
const copyCSS = () => {
return src(["./**/*.css", "!{node_modules,dist}/**"]).pipe(dest("dist"));
};
exports.default = copyCSS;
I passed an array of globs to the src
function. The first glob will find all CSS files. The second glob will exclude a portion of the matched files in node_modules
and dist
directory
