I get the high CPU from file scanning mentioned in #845 and #806 .

This surprised me because it must have started after an update and the first symptom was my CPU fan spinning on my MBP.

Is there any way to disable this scanning in my home dir? As another user mentioned, it's common to open bpython in the home dir, and people often have many repos checked out below their home dir.

A config option in the config file? A dot-file? Something in the .python-profile.py?

Is there any way to to this today? If not, I would like to request the feature.

# bpython
bpython version 0.23 on top of Python 3.10.6 /usr/local/opt/python@3.10/bin/python3.10
Running profile from ~/.python-profile.py
.python-profile.py loaded.

You can change import_completion_skiplist. Per default it's .git:.svn.hg:.config:.local:.share:node_modules:PlayOnLinux's virtual drives:dosdevices:__pycache__. If we are missing something there, I'm happy to add more.

I'll try it. Could you document that on https://docs.bpython-interpreter.org/en/latest/configuration.html ?

Do I use the [general] section?

It is and it's already documented at https://github.com/bpython/bpython/blob/main/doc/sphinx/source/configuration-options.rst#import_completion_skiplist. The live copy needs an update for the current version.

I just excluded every dir in my home dir and it seems to have worked.

Does it support absolute paths? If so, could I exclude /Users/jgs and have the same result?

It doesn't at the moment,. So let's keep this bug open until it also supports absolute paths.
