Ember-cli-build, exclude components ember addon

I'm using a "core" ember addon in a boilerplate, with

npm link core-addon

This addon contains generic components, helpers, routes...

Is there a way to exclude some of these components in the boilerplate's ember-cli-build file?

I already tried the following in the ember-build-cli in my boilerplate project, which is probably wrong:

const EmberApp = require('ember-cli/lib/broccoli/ember-app');
const environment = EmberApp.env();
module.exports = function (defaults) {
    let app = new EmberApp(defaults, {
        funnel: {
                enabled:true,
                exclude:['core-addon/pods/components/pages/**/*']
            },
    });
return app.toTree();
};
