Regex pattern to ignore multiple folders

Question

How is the correct syntax to ignore more then one files and folders for electron-packager?

With only one arg like: --ignore=docs/* it works fine. But I want to ignore more then one folder and files like: --ignore=docs/* + dev/* + someFile.js

Answer 1

This variant works for me

--ignore=\"(docs*|dev*|somefile\.js)\"

Answer 2

Use the OR statement in the regular expression by using the | character in stead of the + character.

--ignore="docs/.*|dev/.*|somefile\.js"
