Ignore a package in the --entryPointStrategy packages globs

Problem

I have a package in my monorepo that is pure css and no typescript as well as packages that are not exported. When running typedoc with --entryPointStrategy packages and globs, it may pick up packages I would prefer to ignore.

That way, I can hide the warning Could not determine the entry point for "/Users/jlarmst/Desktop/monorepos/turbo-monorepo/packages/configs/typedoc/package.json". Package will be ignored. and run typedoc with --treatWarningsAsErrors

Suggested Solution

Use the --exclude flag to disallow certain packages via the typedoc cli.

As far as options go - I think the --exclude option is still applicable here, it's used for filtering entry points with other strategies

@Gerrit0 Unfortunately, I don’t think the commit fixed this bug. I am on version v0.23.4. Could we re-open?

I am still receiving the warning:

warning Could not determine the entry point for "/absolute/path/to/package/package.json". Package will be ignored.

when using exclude with --entryPointStrategy packages:

--exclude "relative/path/to/package/**/*"

[Gerrit0]

For packages, you're excluding a package itself, not the files within it, so you should use --exclude "relative/path/to/package/"

That works 🎉 thank you @Gerrit0
