Allow excluding specific files

[Marshallx]

The ignorePaths and exclude options do not allow excluding specific files from the docs.

Example:
I want to include "src/a/hello.js" but exclude "src/b/hello.js"

For now it looks like I'm going to have to write a script to copy all the stuff I want to a separate folder just to create the docs.

Why not use a .gitignore style solution?

exclude option works for me as follow.

{
    "options": {
        "exclude": "src/b"
    }
}

Exactly that doesn't work for me - the file is still processed and gives a bunch of warnings.

[okuryu]

I cannot reproduce your problem. Could you provide reproducible example?

[Marshallx]

Not a lot more I can tell you, tried this "real" example:
exclude: "internet/punycode.js"
And, because "punycode.js" does not use yuidoc's exact syntax, I get a load of warnings on the command line.
If I change the config to
exclude: "punycode.js"
Then I don't get any warnings.

Nevermind if I'm the only one having this problem - I've switched to JSDoc now in any case.

[okuryu]

exclude option is comma separated list of directories by design. You're able to use it as follows.

{
    "options": {
        "exclude": "internet"
    }
}

Please let me know if it doesn't works.

[Marshallx]

Yeah, that works. But there is no way to exclude
internet/punycode.js
whilst still including other files in internet/*.js
without excluding
some-other-folder/punycode.js

Okay, I think supporting glob pattern is nice. I'll take a look detail. Of course, patch welcome.
