hide the file list

[MuZhou233]

Hi there,

I'm interesting in how to hide the file list by a specific file just like the .password file. In my opinion, a list hided folder should seems like an empty folder(or just shows an README.md file).

Could I know how to reach that? Or if someone will make this function a mainline feature.

It's currently not available, and do you mean that you want to collapse the file list?

No, What I want is the hidden folder just shows an README file in, but if I visit the file or un-hidden folder in that folder, It works normal.

By the way, I used reach that by a <style> tag with CSS in README file in other project. but in this project, the file list did not have an specific class or id to be select by CSS

You may do the filtering in pages/api/index.ts after getting all children of the folder, and the file listing view will rely on its return value.
But users can still get the original children list like via item api with the id of the folder, or via search api with the folder name as query keyword.
Anyway making a folder look empty while keeping the actual children accessible is just a visual defense.
If you are going to defend programers, a heavy work is required so maybe you need to implement them by yourself. Otherwise the above (i.e. just do filtering in pages/api/index.ts) should be enough.

Thanks a lot, what I'm willing is exactly a visual defense.
