swc: @swc/cli --ignore option is not working

By using exclude in swcrc, you lose the ability to run tests with @swc/jest.

I think this discussion should be moved to @swc/cli. There is already an open issue about this problem –only and --ignore clarity.

"exclude": [".spec.js"], this works 🟩

it is really counter intuitive for swc to handle it like that and not using globs/ crashing.

if you use exclude in the config it works, FYI. Ran into this same issue and that worked for me.

@alexn-s Sorry, I just realized i did accomplish it in another repo, by doing the following: "exclude": [".spec.js"],

Duplicated of https://github.com/swc-project/cli/issues/20

Also change the labels of this issue to stale & duplicate 😃

Thanks, but I don’t have authority to do that 😢

You can close the issue with a comment saying “closed in favor of …” or “duplicate of …”. Replace dots with a link to the swc-project/cli. Also change the labels of this issue to stale & duplicate 😃

@alexn-s I tried something similar and found that exclude will not take globs, only directories as far as I could tell. Luckily my stories and tests are in stories and tests folders so I was able to do "exclude": ["tests/", "stories/"], but when using globs like you show in your code, it was failing.

I have a same problem 😭

npx swc src --ignore **/*.stories.tsx --out-dir dist does not ignore *.stories.tsx files…
