FastAccelStepper not installed automatically when using PlatformIO

At the moment, you can download this library with the following syntax in your platformio.ini file, however it will not pull in the dependencies:

; PlatformIO Project Configuration File
;
;   Build options: build flags, source filter
;   Upload options: custom upload port, speed and extra flags
;   Library options: dependencies, extra library storages
;   Advanced options: extra scripting
;
; Please visit documentation for the other options and examples
; https://docs.platformio.org/page/projectconf.html
[env:esp32dev]
platform = espressif32
board = esp32dev
framework = arduino
lib_deps = 
    https://github.com/theelims/StrokeEngine.git#main

This is easily solved by adding an additional line:

; PlatformIO Project Configuration File
;
;   Build options: build flags, source filter
;   Upload options: custom upload port, speed and extra flags
;   Library options: dependencies, extra library storages
;   Advanced options: extra scripting
;
; Please visit documentation for the other options and examples
; https://docs.platformio.org/page/projectconf.html
[env:esp32dev]
platform = espressif32
board = esp32dev
framework = arduino
lib_deps = 
    https://github.com/theelims/StrokeEngine.git#main
    gin66/FastAccelStepper@^0.30.5

however it would be good if the dependencies could be installed automatically via https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/manifests/library-json/fields/dependencies.html

Good point. I will rework library.properties into a library.json with the next release.

Thanks!

It's working really well though on my test rig, I just need to fine tune the settings at the top of the file and get some silent stepper drivers because it's squealing at the moment!
