When using the SuiteCloud IDE Plugin for WebStorm, it seems to makes sense to me that the files in

.idea/suiteapp

directory should be included in version control as it contains the XML templates for the NS objects. I would imagine these should be shared with other developers on the team when they clone or update their local repo. However, three files I’m unsure whether they should be included are

netsuite.xml

,

netsuite.sign

and

netsuite.pkey

which are all located under the root

.idea

folder. An inspection of the

netsuite.xml

file shows that it contains the Token ID and Secret used for TBA connection to the NetSuite account which should automatically exclude it from repo inclusion. I’m trying to determine if this is standard practice among other devs. I’m also trying to determine how the Master Account Password is affected by this. It’s my understanding that it’s project based. Would another developer need to create their own Master Password when they clone the repo and begin working? What other inclusion/exclusions from the

.idea

folder do I need to consider? (I also posted this in #CKMKB8QQP and #C29HQS63G channels – sorry for the cross post)

I tend to exclude the whole .idea folder from my git repositories because of how sensitive the information can be, and how varied IDE's different team members use are.

We are currently working on a refactoring of WebStorm + credential management. The idea is to centralize credentials so you can use them across tools (CLI + WebStorm) with a unique configuration. Master password will also go away as we move all our tools to oAuth

Oh wow, that will be really cool @Albert Margarit (NS Eng Lead). How do I stay in the loop on updates with that?

@Miquel Brazil we'll keep you posted in this channel. If you want to get more details, ping me or @Carlos Olivares (NS DevTools PM) directly
