Hi UI5 Team,

Goal
In my application I sometimes want to consume the sources of an internal library (for live debugging), and at other times the compiled dist bundle – without touching the library’s own ui5.yaml.

Setup

my-app/                     (UI5 application)
  ui5.yaml
  package.json  ← npm link @my/org/ui5-utilslib

ui5-utilslib/               (linked library)
  ui5.yaml    # current default – points to dist
  src/
  dist/

ui5-utilslib/ui5.yaml today:

type: library
resources:
  configuration:
    paths:
      src: dist/resources/customnamespace/
      test: dist/customnamespace/

If I manually change those two paths to src/ and test/, the app uses the original sources, which is exactly what I need while developing – but that means hacking the library on disk.

Question
Is there a way in UI5 Tooling (e.g., via command-line flag, environment variable, or an override in the application’s ui5.yaml) to tell the CLI:

“For the dependency @my/org/ui5-utilslib, load from src/ instead of dist/”?

Or is there a recommended alternative to switch between the two variants without modifying the library itself?

Thanks for any hints!
