Feature request from kanduvisla, posted on GitHub Dec 23, 2016
So I recently 'discovered' that you can set the proper urn's for your IDE with the command bin/magento dev:urn:generate, but if you're running your Magento development environment in a VM (like I am) the paths generated do not match with the path on your development machine.
For example, in my VM, Magento 2 is installed in /var/www/magento, and /var/www is mounted on my local directory /Users/giel/PhpStormProjects/ProjectName.
So when I run bin/magento dev:urn:generate ../misc.xml it generates all mappings to /var/www/magento instead of /Users/giel/PhpStormProjects/ProjectName, rendering this feature useless if you're running it in a VM.
So there are 2 options here:
- I can edit
misc.xml and find and replace all the paths. Or:
- We can add an extra option to the CLI command,
--prefix for example.
If we go for option 2, we can do something like:
bin/magento dev:urn:generate --prefix="/Users/giel/PhpStormProjects/ProjectName/" ../misc.xml
Would this be a nice attribution to this function? If so, I wouldn't mind spending some time creating it and sending a PR.
