Allow libraries folders to be set via the configuration

[SebCanet]

Hi,
with 0.31.preview on Windows, when I type arduino-cli lib list, it lists only libraries inside my sketchbook/libraries folder.
I changed ".cli-config.yml" like this:

libraries:
- ../sketchbook/libraries
- ./libraries

But when I compile it doesn't find Servo.h

Thanks!

Can you confirm it's still the case with latest 0.4.0?

Closing as stale, feel free to reopen should you have the same issue again.

Still the same pb. Even if it's in a subfolder:

libraries:
    - ../libraries
    - ../sketchbook/libraries

My folders are like that:

project
|-arduino (with arduino-cli.exe inside)
|-libraries (with liraries from Arduino IDE)
|-sketchbook (with inside:)
  |- libraries (for personnal lib)
  |- sketches

Thanks.

Still the same pb with v0.5.0

libraries:
    - ./libraries
    - ../sketchbook/libraries

Thanks for confirming @SebCanet

@SebCanet
we do not support the libraries: ... section in config file arduino-cli.yaml.

If you want to allow the CLI to see the libraries from the Arduino IDE you should copy the executable inside the Arduino IDE folder (the cli will automatically detect this condition and pick the libraries in the Arduino IDE). Did this solve your issue?

I changed title to make it clearer, I hope...
What I need is doing with libraries the same as board_manager: multiplie.

[cmaglie]

ok so this is more a feature request, you want the possibility to add more libraries folders from the config file.

[SebCanet]

Exactly!

@SebCanet
I endorse this.
I believe the config file(s) should allow for a deeper degree of behaviour customisation.
@cmaglie let's look at it in our next session, I have a few ideas :)

Great 👍
