`node_modules` is not ignored by default.

Alex version: 4.1.0

node_modules is not ignored by default.
When I run alex It checks everything in node_modules path.
I tried adding node_modules to the .alexignore but it still causes errors that make the tests not pass:

"1:1 error Cannot process specified file: it's ignored"

The word “default” here means if you’re using alex.

node_modules are also ignored if you’re passing in files and directories (alex docs readme.md).

node_modules are not ignored if you’re passing in globs that match files, as globs are often expanded by the shell: alex doesn’t see **/*.md, it gets for example readme.md node_modules/something/readme.md.

As a fix, use alex ., and then add patterns to .alexignore that you don’t want checked.

Also: maybe the --diff flag is of interest.

I have tried, and quiet flag doesn't work with .?

[pierreneter]

I think I do not need to use the --diff flag for travis-ci now because the previous changes still need to be checked. After the process is complete, I will add it later.
So, thank you for the suggestion about this flag.

Not?

🚀  example: alex
doc/getting-started.md: no issues found
doc/plugins.md: no issues found
readme.md: no issues found
🚀  example: alex -q
🚀  example: alex -q .

Could you provide information on how you’re running things?

Oops, sorry, my typo.

Thank you for explaining.
I feel satisfied with the script:

alex -q .
