Fzf-native ignore file #49

Closed mawkler closed 2 years ago

mawkler commented 2 years ago

Is it possible for me to create an ignore file for fzf-native, kinda like how ripgrep has an .rgignore? Or should I be using telescope.defaults.file_ignore_patterns? Does fzf-native support that?

Conni2461 commented 2 years ago

No use file_ignore_patterns i dont think its fits in the scope of telescope-fzf-native. You can still obviously remove items based on a pattern dynamically with !pattern. Like described in the readme

Isn't ignoring a set of file patterns crucial to a fuzzy finder though? Both to avoid parsing huge unwanted directories like node_modules/, but also to ignore files that one would never want to open in Neovim, for instance .bin files?

Conni2461 commented 2 years ago

Yeah sure i agree. But this repo is not a fuzzy finder. Its an implementation of an algorithm as library so telescope can use it. You should use telescope.defaults.file_ignore_patterns. I dont understand why i should re implement it. Do you want to specify ignore patterns fuzzy with this algorithm?

Oh I see, I misunderstood your earlier comment because it sounded to me like file_ignore_patterns didn't work for fzf-native. That's my bad. I'll use that then!
