filtering not working?

[Steven Noble]

I have this config:

g.nvim_tree_indent_markers = 1
g.nvim_tree_quit_on_open = 1
require("packer").startup(function()
  use({
    "kyazdani42/nvim-tree.lua",
    requires = "kyazdani42/nvim-web-devicons",
    config = function()
      require("nvim-tree").setup({
        filters = { dotfiles = false, custom = { ".DS_Store" } },
        git = { enable = true, ignore = false },
        open_on_setup = true,
        update_cwd = true,
        update_focused_file = { enable = true, update_cwd = true },
        view = { width = 60 },
      })
    end,
  })
end

I get this result:

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Could it be that it is showing .DS_Store as a dotfile?

If yes, then I think the order of precedence needs to be reversed, so that filters = { dotfiles = false, custom = { ".DS_Store" } } shows all dotfiles other than .DS_Store files.

I just tried

  filters = {
    dotfiles = false,
    custom = { '.git', 'node_modules', '.cache', '.DS_Store' },
  },

and am not seeing it on the tree list.

The same goes for me, I want to see my node_modules folder, but nothing changes after I modify the filters.

could not reproduce with provided configuration :/ could something be going on with the way macos handles casing in filenames ? what happens if you set the filter to .ds_store instead ?

@kyazdani42 Sorry if I wasn't clear in my previous comment; I can't reproduce that either and I am on macOS.

[Kiyan]

not sure why this happens to @snoblenet though.

Weird. My current set-up is now working as expected.
