I'm new to biicode and slightly new to Arduino. I've just installed both, and I'm trying to change some biicode settings with bii arduino:settings, but I keep getting this message:

ERROR: You're not in a valid project folder

Can't find in the documentation how a valid project folder should look like, and can't see much from googling the text of my error message, so not sure what's wrong.

Some extra info:

I have installed the latest biicode version (v3.1.1) on my Mac OS, and then run

bii setup:arduino

By default, it installs Arduino SDK 1.0.6, but I had previously installed Arduino SDK 1.6.4, so I created a new folder in ~/.biicode_env, and a link to my preferred Arduino installation, so this is what I have:

~/.biicode_env/arduino-1.6.4/Arduino.app -> ~/Applications/Arduino.app

Place your code in a folder and init that folder as a biicode project running:

bii init -L

Then you can safely run bii arduino:settings. This way you can have different settings for each project.

After that, you can run:

bii configure -t arduino  
bii build
bii arduino:upload

Note that you have to adapt your .ino files

Here's the getting started guide

Well, I was not being very patient, since I've found the reply to my own question a little later in the documentation.

I just needed to create a new project like this:

bii init myproject

Then move inside the myproject directory, and run the bii arduino:settings command.

    Yep - both work difference is you place your code in your project folder directly with ``bii init -L`` and into blocks/username/blockname if you're using simple ``bii init`` -> go to forum.biicode.com for further assitance ;) – amalulla May 18 '15 at 14:49
