node_modules folder significantly slow down the scan process

[ghozylab]

Hi All,

I am using Plugin Check (PCP) and not using WP-CLI but using WordPress admin interface, In this case my node_modules folder inside the plugin folder so it significantly slow down the scan process.
The scan process can takes more than 3 minutes when the node_modules folder (and all its packages) exist inside plugin directory. Can I ignore the node_modules folder? Thanks

I'll check it out!

By default following folders in the plugin are ignored.

$default_ignore_directories = array(
        '.git',
        'vendor',
        'node_modules',
);

It is quite strange that PCP is checking node_modules folder in your case.

You can try to install the following package to make it same with mine and check again to scan PCP.
