Locate platformio.ini in a subdirectory
My current folder structure places all the app (including the platformio.ini) in the "app" folder, i need to start vscode at the parent folder so i can access the .github, .vscode and documentation.
How can i make the extension locate the platformio.ini there?. I am using docker. I do not need the extension to be fair, would only use to generate that file, i'm happy using cli, but having a really bad time configuring the c_cpp_properties (esp-idf functions shows a not defined in intelissense, but code compiles fine).
My current platformio.ini

Note, i did try pio init --ide=vscode, it did generate a file, but had no intelissensse for anything outside my own project:

i did try to manually include some stuff, without success (not sure if i'm even including the right directories)

compiling works fine.
yay, manage to fix my intelissense by using pio init --environment esp32dev --ide vscode then using a custom script to copy it to the parent folder, hope it helps anyone with intelisense issues
#!/bin/bash
# Check if an environment name is provided
if [ -z "$1" ]; then
echo "Usage: $0 <environment_name>"
echo "Default environments are: native | esp32dev"
exit 1
fi
ENVIRONMENT_NAME=$1
# Change directory to the specified path
cd /workspace/app/ || exit
# Store the command used to initialize the environment
INIT_COMMAND="pio init --environment $ENVIRONMENT_NAME --ide vscode"
# Execute the command
$INIT_COMMAND
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo "Successfully initialized environment '$ENVIRONMENT_NAME' for VSCode."
else
echo "Failed to initialize environment '$ENVIRONMENT_NAME' for VSCode."
exit 1
fi
# Prepare a header message for the c_cpp_properties.json file using a here-document
cat > temp_header.json <<EOF
/*
This file was generated by the prepare_intelissense.sh script using the command:
$INIT_COMMAND
It is intended for setting up IntelliSense configurations for the environment: $ENVIRONMENT_NAME.
*/
EOF
# Append the original c_cpp_properties.json content to the temporary file
cat .vscode/c_cpp_properties.json >> temp_header.json
# Copy and replace the c_cpp_properties.json file with the one that includes the header
cp -f temp_header.json /workspace/.vscode/c_cpp_properties.json
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo "Successfully copied IntelliSense settings for environment '$ENVIRONMENT_NAME'."
else
echo "Failed to copy IntelliSense settings for environment '$ENVIRONMENT_NAME'."
exit 1
fi
# Clean up the temporary file
rm temp_header.json
Would love to find a way to use the extension tho.
