Are there any updates for this PR? To have an easy way for selecting all dependencies of a package without the package itself seems like a nice improvement for usability |
No update from my side - waiting for inputs from the maintainer I guess. |

Added a
excluded_packageskeyword tocreate_sysimagewhich allows certain packages to be unconditionally excluded in the sysimage.Such option can be useful when one want to compile a sysimage for package development where the dependences contain heavy packages with long load times (e.g. found using
@time_imports using MyDevPackagein Julia >= 1.8).In this case, building a system image including the dependencies can significantly reduce the load times of the package in development.
For example, one may want to create a system image with
MyDevPackageincluded in thepackageskeyword argument withinclude_transitive_dependencies=trueto ensure its dependencies are included. Then putMyDevPackageinsideexcluded_packagessoMyDevPackageitself is not included in the sysimage (otherwise one cannot developMyDevPackage.
