Take exclude_patterns into account

[TobiasHolicki]

Hi,
I have a project with folder structure similar to

├── docs
├── src
└── tests
    ├── src
    └── submodules

Currently, I have set matlab_src_dir to the project's root directory, but then sphinxcontrib-matlabdomain returns several warnings related to functions from the imported submodules over which I have no control at all.

I think it could be nice to take sphinx's exclude_patterns into accound when scanning the matlab_src_dir for relevant files. At least that feels natural to me and seems to be not yet implemented.

I would really like this feature as well. We are working with Matlab projects which creates a bunch of small files in a folder "resources" which takes time to process.

Yep, I should have time this coming week to devote to work on this. Though if I am reading correctly and you mean this exclude_patterns I don't think it does what you think it does. I believe this excludes .rst files from being processed not files being processed via autodoc.
