Vscode-project-manager: Load project list from directory

[Gama11]

Great extension! :+1:

Having a lot of different projects to switch between (well over 100), I would love a feature that allows me to provide a path and have the extension automatically scan that recursively and add all folders with a .vscode subdirectory to the projects list. Perhaps the path(s) to scan could be entered in the projects.json some way, so the projects are updated automatically?

Thanks :smile:

Great ideas :) I mean _ideas_ because I see two different things:

1. Import projects: Scan for .vscode subfolders, inside a folder and automatically add it as new projects
2. Auto-detect projects: Automatically update the projects list, based on scanning when you call `Project Manager: List".

Both are welcome enhancements :+1:

I will take a look at these after finishing New sortList - MRU

Cool! Keep up the great work, this extension has made me a lot more productive already. :)

waiting for the upgrade of this extension.

Auto-detect projects name is useful.

I updated the idea I little bit 😄

Instead of _import projects_ to you projects.json, you will be able to _load VS Code projects dynamically_. You just have to add a new setting, defining a list of folders _that contains VS Code projects_, and all projects will be presented in the same list.

Stay tunned.

Took me way too long to actually get around to checking this feature out. I have to say, I really like the way it's implemented (especially that there is an option to look for Git projects as well). Cheers! 👍
