当项目作为依赖项包含时，节点模块的控制内容

Question

Let's say I have a node project 'A' with a JS file, 10 resource files and some test files.

There is another project 'B' which depends on the JS file of project 'A'. So, it includes it as dependency in package.json as:

"dependencies": {
    "A": "git+https://github.com/repo/A.git"
}

But this will also try to fetch all unwanted files like resources and test files of project 'A' in node_modules folder.

Is there a way I can control in package.json of 'A' that which files to expose if included as dependency?

Answer 1

I believe .npmignore is what you need. Please see Keeping files out of your package
