Does anyone know what file structure the Webstorm plugin is dependant on?
We’re trying out a setup where we in a Webstorm project have multiple SDF projects instead of one. So instead of:
Project / src / FileCabinet / SuiteScripts .. etc
We want to do:
Project / Solution1 / src / FileCabinet / SuiteScripts / Solution1 .. etc
Project / Solution2 / src / FileCabinet / SuiteScripts / Solution2 .. etc
But when we use that structure the plugin stops working (inactive/grayed out) when for example right clicking a file in Project / Solution2 / src / FileCabinet / SuiteScripts / Solution2 to compare it with the account version.
We’ve tried playing around with the defaultProjectFolder attribute in the suitecloud.config.js but it’s not really working.
Has anyone tried this kind of setup? Can the plugin be configured in some other way?

03/01/2023, 10:50 PM@chris from what I can understand the feedback was that users didn't want to have a separate copy of the project for each environment

03/01/2023, 10:51 PMbut the ability to have multiple SDF projects in a single project is something that I believe us highly useful

03/01/2023, 10:53 PMWe could probably do both and move it all to settings files

03/01/2023, 10:54 PMHowever, it is a lot of noise for most users with single instance setups

chris
03/01/2023, 11:00 PMTo that end I can’t really support the official plugin, but I can support the official node SDK
