Add functionality to exclude directories from graph and update tsconf…

[the-muppet]

Very large, well tagged vault size causes the plugin to crash even on high powered hardware, Suggested changes allow users to exclude directories within vault from graph indexing, allowing for more controlled and useful graph content.

I might be an edge case though, really don't know 😃

Hi @the-muppet,
I checked with your code, but seems not work at all? Not knowing what is happening, but the filter does not work on my end after I entered a path: nodes have the path still in the graph.

I'm not super familiar with typescript or the codebase, my filtering must have been misaligned or applied incorrectly. I'll mess with it more and provide an updated PR - sorry!

Please review the function named shouldRemove in util.ts, which currently handles filtering operations. I believe it can be extended to include path filtering functionality by simply passing the excludeDirectories parameter to this function.

Ah thank you. as of right now i have seemingly limited the file linking but that doesnt do anything for tag links, getting some.. mixed results to say the least. will have some more time to dive in later in the week

Yes, if you get the input of "excludedDirectories" to migrated into the content of currently used "filterStrings", you will get the result even dont need to change any logic. Of course you can update the "shouldRemove" function to support checking if it is a file, or a tag etc.
