Ignore co-located tests files when using --copy-files in build step

[vale2628]

This issue is a: Question / support request / Feature request

I'm using React-create-component-library and as part of the build process I added --copy-files in the react build step to bring over .scss/.css files. However I also have my .specs files in the /src directory. Is there a way to exclude them? I tried ignoring it using babel-loader but it did not work.

Perhaps a --ignore files need to be added??

For the time being, you can update your build script to somehow like below:
"build": "nwb build-react-component --copy-files --no-demo && find lib/ -name '*.specs.js' -delete",

nwb is already telling Babel to ignore .test.js/.spec.js files in src/, but --copy-files doesn't respect the ignore config.

A recent version gained a --no-copy-ignored flag which should fix this.

@insin , on the same topic, is there currently a way to exclude files from being added to the build? e.g. storybook files or mdx, located in the same folder with the component
