In the process of working with compiled JS on a react-based project, I had the need to tell spress to ignore rebuilding the project when a certain file changed (because I'm compiling it with a different watcher and only want the spress project rebuilt when the compiled js is done building). This allows developers to pass an additional variable to the watch task, allowing for extra files to be added to the watch OR for files to be ignored. In my project, I added
overrides.spress_watch_extras = '!../../src/content/assets/js/_*.js';
, which allows me to ignore any files prefixed with an_
, just in case I might need more than one down the line.
