switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 1 # Ignoring files from mbed build
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 2
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 3 The `.mbedignore` file allows you to ignore files and directories from being processed by `mbed build` command.
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 4
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 5 ## Usage
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 6 You can place the `.mbedignore` file in any directory where `mbed build` command is going to search for source files.
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 7
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 8 The most convenient place is the root directory of the library or application. However, this is not a requirement.
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 9
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 10 Avoid defining rules that would cross the library boundaries as those would lead to side effects or build problems that are hard to find.

switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 12 ## Syntax
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 13
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 14 Each line in the `.mbedignore` file is a file pattern used for matching files. Each matched file or directory is ignored from build.
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 15
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 16 The following wildcards are accepted:
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 17
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 18 |Pattern | Meaning|
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 19 |--------|--------|
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 20 | `*` | Matches everything. |
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 21 | `?` | Matches any single character. |
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 22 | `[seq]` | Matches any character in seq. |
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 23 | `[!seq]` | Matches any character not in seq. |
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 24
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 25 File is parsed with Python's [fnmatch](https://docs.python.org/2/library/fnmatch.html) functionality so the syntax follows basic shell patterns with the following exceptions:
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 26
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 27 1. Each line is internally prefixed with the path of the `.mbedignore` file.
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 28 2. Line cannot start with `.` or `/` (because of rule 1)
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 29
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 30 Globbing functionality is not used, so you cannot recursively match specific file pattern. You need to define rule per directory in that case.
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 31
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 32 Relative paths can be used, so you can match files deeper in the build tree. However, avoid crossing library boundaries.
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 33
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 34 ### Example
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 35 A file located in `source/obsolete/.mbedignore` with following content:
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 36
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 37 ```
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 38 *.c
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 39 *.h
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 40 second_level/*.c
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 41 ```
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 42
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 43 After applying the rule 1, actual patterns used internally for matching the source files are:
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 44
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 45 ```
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 46 source/obsolete/*.c
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 47 source/obsolete/*.h
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 48 source/obsolete/second_level/*.c
switches 0:5c4d7b2438d3 49 ```
