Specify config on launch #79

Closed punkeel closed 11 years ago

punkeel commented 11 years ago

Allow to specify a config file on run. Only available from python environment, (don't wan't to mess your options code :( )

This won't quite work properly as more modules than launcher look for the config file.

In the 'setuptools' branch head, the config directory is located by a function in the 'mk2.shared' module. I think this would be a better place for changing the config location.

I don't understand how to "change" config path, and what code is used, (and when), to locate it. Is setuptools branch here for pip install's ?

edk0 commented 11 years ago

that's the aim, yes, but it's going to be merged into master soon. Look at https://github.com/mcdevs/mark2/blob/setuptools/mk2/shared.py#L17. my inclination would be to add a launcher option to override this path.

btw, we're in #mark2 on freenode if you want to ask about anything you don't understand about the code. we can probably help you there.
