Cordova - Ignore folders on build

I've got a simple app for Phonegap. In the www folder I added some NPM sugar to help development. Now, during the build I'd like to ignore this node_module folder created by NPM when it loads the dependencies. It actually make the build fail.

I've added an ant.properties file within root/platforms/android/ and wrote this line:

aapt.ignore.assets:!.svn:!.git:.*:<dir>_*:!CVS:!thumbs.db:!picasa.ini:!*.scc:*~:<dir>node_*

It prints that it ignores the folder node_modules because of that property, but when I look at the folder root/platforms/android/assets/www I can see the node_modules folder.

I guess my question is, is the folder actually being ignored in the created APK?

Make a copy of your APK and change the file extension from .apk to .zip then extract the zip. You will be able to browse to the www folder and see if it's in there or not.
