Hello there. I have a simple issue with the settings.json file. currently the app auto-creates it in my home direcory ~, but i would like to change its directory to somewhere else. how can i do that? i think there should be a option in the gui to set this easily.

4JX commented 9 months ago

I cannot do this from the GUI since the program would need to still need to have some known place to look up the fact it has to read the config from somewhere else.

A few options come to mind to specify a place to read/write to:

I think an environment variable is ok. but there is no solution for this right now?

4JX commented 9 months ago

Not at the moment

Apologies for the delay, can you test if https://github.com/4JX/L5P-Keyboard-RGB/actions/runs/8667189970 does the job for you? (Backup your settings.json)

Alireza2317 commented 7 months ago

i'm sorry but what is the difference of this version exactly? i can't feel anything different. do i have to set an enviornment variable for the settings.json path?

Whoops, my brain went into autopilot mode since I added an explanation to the readme in the same commit 😅.

Yes, try setting LEGION_KEYBOARD_CONFIG to point to a config file elsewhere.
