I must access and edit my Node.js source files via a windows share. But I have the Visual Studio project file (*.njsproj) stored locally in my "Documents" folder (fast SSD).
Node.js tools for VS appears to put an .ntvs_analysis.dat file (~17MB in my case) in the source root (on the share in my scenario). This makes things unusable because the size of the file and the speed of the network share. It also means possible conflicts if multiple people are editing the same project files.
It seems all of this could be handled by saving the analysis file in the Node.js project file directory. I would not mind this option by default or via checkbox option in Node.js settings.
I realize I could probably work things out through links, and other fancy configs, but I have quite a few projects and this seems like a brittle solution to an otherwise fairly minor problem. I am considering making the move from IntelliJ IDEA permanent but co-mingling the project "source" separate from the project "meta" (IDE temp and cache files, IDE configuration files) is an issue.
Comments: Also, if this feature is already available (or hackable via settings already in VS) please let me know -- no need to add more options if there is already a means to achieve.
