Ignore folders and file patterns #14
Comments
i have implemented this feature by entering the "!" in the start of the query and then the file name you want to filter. |
yes, it should be more-or-less permanent, as a "ignore all these folders all the time" kind of setting, a permanent file/folder blacklist |
How no i get it. |
Hiding files with specific extensions was added in 31f4022 Ignoring specific folders within a library is currently still open. |
This would be an amazing feature, and would be useful for many things. For example, I use a file syncing program called Syncthing to sync my projects and memes folder across devices, and it creates a hidden folder in every synced directory that contains text files with IDs corresponding to files and directories that it uses to ensure files are up-to-date. It would be great if I could set TagStudio to ignore all hidden directories and files or just add this folder to an ignore list, then TagStudio wouldn't be cluttered by Syncthing files. |
Currently the list of excluded/allowed file extensions is managed via the GUI. That should remain as is, as not every user is willing/capable to manage that via Having combination of " However there could be an option to have some kind of |
I feel like having a ignore folder list which is like the ignore extension list would be way more useful than having to make a folder called Ex: I don't want to see my Godot Projects folder because all the items inside are strictly for Godot, and I can't really move those items without breaking the Projects. Same with Blender, and a whole lot of other programs. They are just not designed to be like that. I also don't want to have to go to each individual folder and add it to my Library. TagStudio isn't supposed to completely replace folders, it just makes it a whole lot easier to find files in our already created web of folders. Anyways, back to the main topic at hand, having to add a folder called something specific would not be beneficial to the end user. Very cool idea, maybe if it's added we could have a toggle for people in the settings to use that. Adding onto that idea; what you could do is add a way to add any specifically named folders in any folder in the library. Ex: Whenever you are using Blender to do some video editing, if you add a video into the Video Sequence Editor, Blender makes a file called Obviously this also adds functionality to add blocking any user created |
Sorta like a
.gitignore
, to be able to ignore folder patterns like (ironically).git
, cache folders, and .DS_Store and the likes.Else all the hundreds or so hidden files will clog up the interface, with no way to hide them.
