Configuration set pattern drops all intellisense

[gavinsteinhoff]

Is there anyway to get intellisense when using a configuration set pattern?

I followed this guide but their solution has no intellisense.

I tried many methods, like

var environmentVariabless = environment == 'prd' ? environmentConfigurationMap.Production : environmentConfigurationMap.NonProduction

But I am losing all intellisense.

I would like to just pass in the environment, and have bicep determine the settings.

The only other method I have is to have two parameter files and having CICD pick which file to use in the deploy command.

I don't know what is best practice, but with the configuration set pattern, I can loadTextContent on one file and separate it by environment.

It would also be cool if loadTextContent didn't need a compile time constant.

There are a couple pieces that need to be considered when enabling this:

• If we can allow you to provide a parameters file, we can use those values in validation -- #1278
• We can enhance the type system to allow intellisense for arrays of objects with identical schemas. I just created #4759 to track it.
