Node modules pushed to GitHub

问题

I am trying to push my project to github and heroku. Since I am using nodejs in my app , I have node_modules. Before I commit I have created a file called .gitignore to ignore the node modules.

Inside the file I have added node_modules and tried to push to the GitHub from the comandline/Terminal. I was not expecting the node modules to be push but they appeared finally in the repo. Is there any ways i have to follow , i need help in this regards; thanks!

Here is how I resolve my issue

- $ git rm -r --cached node_modules add node_modules/ to your .gitignore file - $ git commit -m "remove the ignored directory node_modules" and then - $ git push origin master After that , if you refresh the GitHub page you will see the node_modules gone.

回答1:

The node_modules folder should be added to the .gitignore file.

First, get rid of your node_modules:

$ git rm -r --cached node_modules  
$ git commit -m "remove node_modules"

Then, push your change

$ git push origin master

Refresh the page to see the desired effect.

回答2:

First thing you will need to add node_modules inside your .gitignore file

then

$ git rm -r -chached node_modules $ git commit -m "remove node_modules"

and then

$ git push origin master

Hope this will work

Just in case, the .gitignore file, is inside the node_modules or in the root of the project?

If so, I'll recommend to place it [at least] in a parent folder, or ideally in the project's root, and inside it call node_modules as a relative path to the location of the file. i.e: some-path/node_modules.

Besides that, once the folder is commited and pushed, you should ignore the gitignore (by deleting it temporarily or deleting the node_modules line) so git can keep track of the files, delete the folder, commit, push, and restore the gitignore.
