Since I am having a couple of angular projects within the same workspace along with Spring Projects, the Java Language Server that runs for providing Java support to VSCode takes an enormous time (~10 mins) to run through all the contents of the workspace which includes node_modules.

Is there a way/setting that I can use to tell it to skip certain folders/files so that I can speed up the initialization of the Java Language Server? Especially contents of node_modules?

  • The best way is to talk to its developers directly, https://github.com/redhat-developer/vscode-java/issues – Lex Li Jun 10 '20 at 18:17

As of v0.66.0 of the extension, there is the java.project.resourceFilters setting. As it defaults to ["node_modules",".git"], your problem should be solved by using a current version of the redhat.java extension.

If you'd like to exclude more folders, you can add them in your settings.json.

#1460 is the matching issue for this question.

But: this does not work for me atm. See #1655, my setting seems to be ignored, I'll try to resolve this with the devs and update this answer accordingly.
