如何在构建过程中配置Grunt.js文件以复制没有特定子目录的目录？

Question

Given that the Gruntfile is located in parent/aurora/Gruntfile.js,

I'd like to configure Grunt to do the following when the build command is executed:

• copy the entire project directory into parent/build/aurora EXCEPT /parent/aurora/node_modules
• once the directory haas been copied, create a zip file and delete the directory

If you don't want to copy files or a directory you can just preface the files you don't want to include with ! . For example, if you don't want to copy a directory just use: !/parent/aurora/node_modules/** .

In your grunt task:

files: [ 
      { 
        src: ['your_files', '!/parent/aurora/node_modules/**'], 
        dest: 'output/folder'
      }
   ]

Hope this helps!
