Description
Does FAAAST supports multiple aas environment files as input while starting the service? If so, what is the procedure?

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. To start the service 'java -jar starter-{version}.jar -m {path/to/your/AASEnvironment}'
2. Here, how can we set multiple files in the aas environment path as the input of FAAAST service?

Expected behavior
Multiple aas environment files will be given as input when starting the FAAAST service.

Output
The HTTP endpoint will return results from multiple aas environment files based on the query.

This feature is not supported. We are aware that some users would like to have this feature but currently we cannot provide any details on if/when it will be available in the future. This is also because merging multiple environments becomes quite complex once there are collisions/overlaps in the different files.

As a quick work-around you could use the FA³ST Package Explorer Converter; a tool intended to convert JSON files exported from the AASX Package Explorer to be FA³ST-compliant. However, it also has a (rather primitive) merge feature. You'll have to manually merge your files into one with this and then load the merged file into FA³ST.
