Projeny validation fails when paths are involved #85
Description
Hello
I am trying to configure a projeny project. I however always get a "Projeny validation failed" error when opening the generated project with unity.
I had a look at the validation function in the projeny.dll source code, and it seems to me like it expects everything in Assets/* and Assets/Plugins/* to be a junction. For me this is not the case since:
- I use
PluginsFolder: MyApp/MyPluginsin myProjenyProject.yaml, causing theAssets/MyApp/MyPluginsfolder to be created (which is not a junction) - I have dependencies of the form
MyRepository/General/MyPlugin, which also cause the directory to appear at top level inAssets(again, not as junction).
Another detail which might be important is that I define the PackageFolders as '[ProjectRoot]/../../../'
At this point I am wondering why the project creation succeeded, but the validation failed. Am I using Projeny wrong, or is the validation not aligned to the directory layouts projeny can produce?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Projeny was written with the assumption that the values given to
PluginsFolder:andAssetsFolder:are package names and not paths. Which is why it assumes that all the junctions should be directly under Assets and Pluginsdecden commentedon Aug 16, 2018
Thanks for the hints. I have restructured my project, so that I no longer use paths for
PluginsFolder,AssetsFolderandDependenciesand the validation now succeeds.It would be nice though to get an error/warning during project creation instead.
