ng-packagr exports markdown files from all folders within a library

For documenting my library, I’m using compodoc which allows to add additional markdown files (https://compodoc.github.io/website/guides/tips-and-tricks.html) to describe a component.

My libraries folder structure looks like this:

└── my-exported-component/
    ├── my-exported.component.ts
    ├── my-exported.component.spec.ts
    ├── my-exported.component.scss
    ├── my-exported.component.html
    ├── my-exported.module.ts
    └── my-exported.component.md
└── my-not-exported-component/
    ├── my-not-exported.component.ts
    ├── my-not-exported.component.spec.ts
    ├── my-not-exported.component.scss
    ├── my-not-exported.component.html
    ├── my-not-exported.module.ts
    └── my-not-exported.component.md
├── package.json
└── index.ts

// index.ts
export * from './my-exported-component/my-exported.module';

When I build with ng-packagr :

{
  "$schema": "./node_modules/ng-packagr/ng-package.schema.json",
  "src": "src/my-lib/lib",
  "dest": "dist/",
  "lib": {
    "entryFile": "index.ts"
  }
}

it creates the dist folder like this:

└── dist/
    ├── my-exported-component/
         ├── my-exported.component.ts
         ├── my-exported.module.ts
        └── my-exported.component.md
    ├── my-not-exported-component/
        └── my-not-exported.component.md
    ├── bundles/
    ├── package.json
    ├── etc..

It seems as ng-packagr copies all markdown files from all folders although I did not explicitly register these modules in my index.ts file. Is there a way to exclude them?

Hi @x1c0,

You can use version 1.4.1 npm install ng-packagr@1.4.1 instead of the newer version. There’s pull request merged to fixed this but still not released yet.
