Allow for flag to overwrite config location
Closed this issue · 6 comments
It would be very useful to have a --config flag to select a custom configuration file.
I would be okay with this (along with something like --no-config to easily skip using a config file)
Just to get perspective for workflows, I'm curious if you have some specific motivating use-case for this
This is very useful to alias inlyne to inlyne --config <config.toml> in case you want to use a separate environment for a while. This would also be useful, for example, if you wanted to embed this program into another program.
@CosmicHorrorDev do you mean --no-config to skip using the config from the default location? Otherwise I'm guessing you just wouldn't put a --config flag.
--no-config to skip reading config files altogether (e.g. how ripgrep uses it). I've seen some other names for it like --clean for vim
It's useful for making sure you get a clean environment for things like bug reports
Might be useful for testing
@coastalwhite feel free to work on this if you want to btw. I've got other stuff I need to get through today, so I won't be able to start on it till sometime next week
