feat: configure Module metadata search paths in pyproject.toml - #263
Conversation
Standalone Modules can list more folders to search for projects in [tool.holoscan], for example extra-search-paths = ["examples"]. The folders are added to the default folders; HOLOSCAN_CLI_SEARCH_PATH still replaces the whole list. Discovery now skips hidden folders such as .git and .venv, Python virtual environments, and CMake build trees, and lists each metadata.json once when search folders overlap. Before this, searching "." also listed the placeholder projects of the CLI's Module template installed in .venv.

- Line 174: Update the metadata-file deduplication key in the code around
os.path.abspath so it resolves symlinks before comparing paths. Preserve the
existing deduplication flow so a metadata file reached through multiple searched
directories is included only once.
Review comments at @src/holoscan_cli/project_context.py:
- Line 325: Update the search-path handling around relative_project_path to
resolve each extra-search-path and reject or skip it unless it remains within
the resolved Module root; only use validated paths for discovery.

tool.holoscan.search-paths now mirrors HOLOSCAN_CLI_SEARCH_PATH: it lists the folders to search and replaces the conventional directories, so leaving a folder out excludes it. The environment variable still wins. A Module's root metadata.json is always searched, so a custom list cannot hide the Module.

iter_metadata_pathsaddsresolved_pathtoseenbefore it appliesexclude_patterns. If an excluded path is encountered first, a later overlapping or symlinked path to the samemetadata.jsonis skipped even when that later path does not match an exclusion.

Problem
A standalone Module can't list projects outside the default folders. An app in
examples/gives "Project 'ex_app' not found", and[tool.holoscan]has nosetting for it. The workaround,
HOLOSCAN_CLI_SEARCH_PATH, replaces the defaultfolders:
exampleshides the Module and its operators, and.also searches.venv, which lists placeholder projects from the CLI's own Module template.Change
[tool.holoscan]keysearch-paths, which isHOLOSCAN_CLI_SEARCH_PATHkept in
pyproject.toml. For example,search-paths = ["operators", "examples"].It replaces the default folders, so leaving a folder out excludes it, and
.searches the whole Module. Entries must be relative paths inside the Module.
HOLOSCAN_CLI_SEARCH_PATHtakes precedence over it.metadata.jsonis always searched, so a custom list from eithersource can't hide the Module.

unless the folder has its own
metadata.json(for example, an in-source build).A folder named in the search path itself is still searched.
metadata.jsonis listed once when search folders overlap, such as.and
