Individual --exclude patterns per entryPoint possible?

Question

Is it somehow possible to have an individual exclude pattern for each entry point specified in conjunction with the entryPointStrategy "expand"?

In our use case, we want to have a unified documentation for a bunch of different apps and libraries in a monorepo.
We achieve this by using the "typedoc-plugin-merge-modules" and the "typedoc-plugin-resolve-crossmodule-references".

All in all this works out quite well.

Unfortunately, the usage of file-types differs from portion to portion in our code. So it would be helpful to have an individual exclude list per each specified entryPoint.

• Is this somehow achievable?

• Is it achievable to have different typedoc settings in different areas of the monorepo's sources? E. g. by placing different typedoc.json files in the root of each entry-point?

Thanks a lot!

Nope, that's not possible for expand, implementing that would be a complete rework of how that entry point strategy is handled.

TypeDoc 0.24's packages mode (see #2197) provides the ability to have different configuration in each module, and should be a much better configuration setting for monorepos.

Ok, I'll give the 0.24 a try and see, whether this could serve our needs. Thanks for your incredible work.
