Development dependencies are never copied in any case. You don’t need to ignore it explicitly. Hidden files are not ignored by default, but all files that should be ignored, are ignored by default.
Default pattern **/*
is not added to your custom if some of your patterns is not ignore (i.e. not starts with !
). package.json
and **/node_modules/**/*
(only production dependencies will be copied) is added to your custom in any case. All default ignores are added in any case — you don’t need to repeat it if you configure own patterns.
May be specified in the platform options (e.g. in the mac).
You may also specify custom source and destination directories by using FileSet
objects instead of simple glob patterns.
[
{
"from": "path/to/source",
"to": "path/to/destination",
"filter": ["**/*", "!foo/*.js"]
}
]
You can use file macros in the from

fields as well. from
and to
can be files and you can use this to rename a file while packaging.
