Node.js Coding Assistance Remote Interpreter
Hello, my development architecture is heavily focused around Docker containers. So my machine does not have installed dependent languages (node, php etc.) locally, because everything I need is in images/containers. For this reason I am using remote Node.js interpreter as defined here: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/webstorm/configure-node-js-remote-interpreter.html
However I am unable to turn on Node.js coding assistance as the option is disabled by default (see screenshot: 2023_01_02_BqzLrwydSGJD2hz5iRzkq1 (file: Screenshot from 2023-01-02 16-15-36.png)). I am using Webstorm 2022.3.1.
Is there any way to use coding assistance with remote interpreter? So I do not have to install Node.js locally?
Thank you very much in advance

this is a known limitation, the Node.js coding assistance doesn't currently work when using remote interpreters. Please follow https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-54178 for updates
As a workaround, I can only suggest installing node typings in your project with
npm i @types/nodeElena Pogorelova Thanks, I was not aware. But I can not install node typings, since I have not node/npm installed on the local machine. Unless there is possibility, that I am not aware of, to install it just for the Webstorm sake.
