Cannot exclude List Views with .forceignore after CustomObject retrieval

[jcarmignani]

Summary

Short summary of what is going on or to provide context.

I would like to exclude from metadata retrieve all the List Views that are fetched while using:
sfdx force:source:retrieve -m "CustomObject:Account"

Steps To Reproduce:

Insert the following lines in the .forceignore file:
# Exclude listViews **listViews **.listView-meta.xml **.listView

Then retrieve the Account object:
sfdx force:source:retrieve -m "CustomObject:Account"

Then check that the listViews folder is still there and the metadata for listViews as well:

Expected result

listViews folders should be empty or all listViews folder should be removed from the SFDX Project

Actual result

Describe what actually happened instead.
listViews folders are still there and nothing is changed despite adding some listViews patterns as part of the .forceignore file

Additional information

Feel free to attach a screenshot.

@jcarmignani that's a very old version the cli. Can you verify it doesn't work with a newer version?

There's also an opt-in for using a newer version of the .forceignore

finally, try these changes:
**listViews => **/listViews
**.listView-meta.xml => **/listView-meta.xml

ignore syntax in v2 follows git: https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore

@mshanemc I have updated my version of the CLI using following command:
sfdx update

Then I have modified my .forceignore file as you suggest:

Eventually I have retrieved Metadata using the following manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata"> <!--CustomObject--> <types> <members>Account</members> <members>Contact</members> <members>User</members> <members>*</members> <name>CustomObject</name> </types> <version>51.0</version> </Package>

I am still facing the same issue with the List Views:

Any suggestion?

hi @jcarmignani ​ I was able to add a listview to the .forceignore and see it be ignored. It is different than how they mention it though.

by adding

force-app/main/default/objects/*/listViews/*.*.*

I was able to ignore all listviews from all objects

and by adding

force-app/main/default/objects/Broker__c/listViews/*.*.*

I was able to ignore just the custom object Broker__c's list views

This should be fixed in latest sfdx v7.130.1 🎉
