How to exclude a file extension from IntelliJ IDEA search?



Is there a way to exclude particular file extension from the results in IntelliJ IDEA's "Find in Path" dialog (invoked by CTRL + SHIFT + F)? I want to exclude all .css files.


.css

In intellij 16 there is a section "File name Filter" to exclude an extension use !*.java. You can give more detailed patterns as well for example I use the pattern below to only return .java files except those with a name starting or ending with test.
Pattern: !*test.java,*.java,!Test*.java


!*.java


!*test.java,*.java,!Test*.java

In recent versions of Intellij the GUI has been updated a bit but the same still applies see the "File mask" on the top right hand corner see image below:

This should be the accepted answer, at least for Eclipse converts ;)

Can I not mention !mocks/*.json in the File Masks filter ?

@CodeTweetie what are your doing to do with the '/' not sure why its needed (i thought '/' is just a delimiter in regex). without it your filter would say exclude any file that starts with "mock"s followed by anything ending in ".json"

This "File name Filter" dialogue doesn't seem to exist in recent versions (2018.1, etc.).

You can create custom scope there:
In 'Find in Path' dialog you can check radio button 'Custom' and open scopes window.
There you can customize path and search pattern.

Examples of Patterns for Pattern field:


Pattern


file[MyMod]:src/main/java/com/example/my_package//*


src[MyMod]:com.example.my_package..*


file:*.js||file:*.coffee


file:*js&&!file:*.min.*



Or check the official documentation.



Good luck!





So what is the pattern to exclude all CSS style sheets?

Sorry, it's in IntelliJ's documentation: jetbrains.com/idea/webhelp/scope-language-syntax-reference.html. For excluding CSS it's: !file:*.css.

Firebase Auth - with Email and Password - Check user already registered

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Firebase Auth - with Email and Password - Check user already registered I want to check when a user attempts to signup with createUserWithEmailAndPassword() in Firebase user Authentication method, this user is already registered with my app. createUserWithEmailAndPassword() 8 Answers 8 To detect whether a user with that email address already exists, you can detect when the call to createUserWithEmailAndPassword () fails with auth/email-already-in-use . I see that @Srinivasan just posted an answer for this. createUserWithEmailAndPassword () auth/email-already-in-use Alternatively, you can detect that an email address is already used by calling fetchSignInMethodsForEmail() (previous called fetchProvidersForEmail() ). fetchSignInMethodsForEmail() fetchProvidersForEmail() When the user trying to create an user with same email address, the task response will be "Response: The email address is already in use by another account." mFirebas

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Dynamically update html content plain JS So I have a script bound in my index.html, which literally has to fetch an array of jsons from an api, then dynamically update my page when get response. But as a result I'm getting an as the only update of my page. here is my script fetch(url) .then((resp) => resp.json()) .then((resp) => resp.results.forEach(item => fetch(item.url) .then((response)=> response.json()) .then((response) => pokeArr.push(response)) .catch(console.log) ) ).catch(console.log) const filler = () => if(!pokeArr) return 0 pokeArr.map((i,j)=> return `<tr>$i.name</tr>` ) const pokeindex = () => document.getElementById('a').appendChild(document.createElement(filler())) pokeindex() When I'm consoling it, I can see in the console all the responses I get, so I'm at least doing the fetching part right. What's parberakan ? What's pokeArr ? – T.J. Crowder Aug 8 at 12

How to determine optimal route across keyboard

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP How to determine optimal route across keyboard I'm trying to automate the typing process in a video game. Players are given an on-screen QWERTY keyboard layout that they can navigate with the control stick (up, down, left, right) in order to select a letter to type. I was wondering if there was a module for Python (or some other resource I could explore) that would help my program find a path across the keyboard as it types each letter in a given message. In other words, if the first letter typed was "A" and the next letter was "B", the module would know that the program should move 1 space down on the keyboard and 4 spaces to the right. Currently, I have the program resetting to the "G" key after each letter is typed (allowing me to use fixed-directions as the program parses each character in the desired message). As you can imagine, this is quite inefficient and defeats the purpose of automating the typing in the fir
