# Use wildcards
docmint --exclude-dir "temp*,cache*,*_backup"

# Multiple exclude-dir arguments
docmint --exclude-dir node_modules --exclude-dir dist --exclude-dir "temp*"
```

### 📄 File Exclusions

```bash
# Exclude specific files
docmint --exclude-file "secret.txt,config.local.json"

# Use wildcards for file patterns
docmint --exclude-file "*.log,*.tmp,*.cache"

# Exclude files in specific paths
docmint --exclude-file "tests/*,docs/*.md,src/temp*"
```

### 🔧 Default Exclusions

DocMint automatically excludes common directories and files:

**Default Excluded Directories:**
- `node_modules`, `.git`, `__pycache__`, `venv`, `dist`, `build`

<details>
<summary><strong>📁 File Encoding Errors</strong></summary>

**Problem**: Encoding errors when reading files

**Solutions**:
- ✅ Ensure files are UTF-8 encoded
- ✅ Check for binary files in project directory
- ✅ Add problematic files to exclusion list with `--exclude-file`

</details>

<details>
<summary><strong>⚡ Performance Issues</strong></summary>

**Problem**: Slow processing for large projects

**Solutions**:
- ✅ Use `--exclude-dir` to exclude large directories
- ✅ Use `--exclude-file` to exclude unnecessary files
- ✅ Reduce max_files in configuration
- ✅ Use specific directory targeting with `-d`

</details>

<details>
<summary><strong>🚫 Too Many Files Excluded</strong></summary>

**Problem**: Important files being excluded

**Solutions**:
- ✅ Check your exclusion patterns with `--show-config`
