Too slow on big projects?
ahmedelgabri opened this issue · comments
I'm working on a huge project with 20k+ files & I couldn't find anyway to specify a path or something to search files only inside this path. So each time I want to search for my TODOs I have to wait for 30secs or so till SublimeTODO scans through all the 20k+ files.
Is there is anyway to optimize this? or even use a different package cause it seems that this project is not maintained anymore.
I'm using ST3 on a Mac if this is useful.

You can exclude paths that you don't want to search easily with the folder_exclude_patterns
setting. But if you mean on a case by case basis I don't think there's any easy way to do this.
Ok, can I add this inside a project.sublime-project
or it needs to be in my main preferences?
you can include it in your .sublime-project
file. You will need to put it inside a "settings" object though.
example:
{
"folders":
[
{
"path": "/myproject"
}
],
"settings":
{
"todo":
{
"file_exclude_patterns":
[
"exclude_me"
]
}
}
}
Thanks @halleycarleton I'll use this for now but although I prefer something like "search in specific folders" cause with these settings I need to add something like 8 - 10 folders by hand.
