Exclude Files from build

Solar2D Daily Builds and Public Releases
#1

Hi, i would like to have an option to exclude some files(maybe wildcard, or specific) from build when it’s iOS or Android, example of this is when we use multiple resolution files, in iOS we don’t use 150% (1.5x) images, we use only 1 and 2x images. But i used 1.5x images for droid support in android for example, so it’s just a waste of space…

Also the icon files, on android we use icon-ldpi, icon-mdpi etc… but that’s not used on iOS, and for iOS we use Icon-72 and others not really needed on android…

I also read someone asking for svn or git files which where being included on the build and that’s not really necessary. Maybe someone can use notes or something like that and don’t get it in the build also. I see a lot of potential use for this.

Thanks

Javier,
the best solution that I have found is using CPM, that way I can have all the files, that I want or don’t want, then just before publishing I can specify the files I want and publish them to a directory and build off that directory.

@Jay, I guess if we could have a facility to select/tag files and then say Publish iOS/iPad/iPhone/Android and it will select the files appropriately.

cheers,

Nice idea.

The tagging files idea by JayantV sounds like a good way to approach it [import]uid: 84637 topic_id: 16427 reply_id: 61563[/import]
