Two irods environments --config option

[jjkoehorst]

I wanted to switch from one environment to another but the -c option is ignored?

gocmd init --config ~/.irods_wur/irods_wur.json iRODS Host [unlock-icat.irods.surfsara.nl]:

While the content of this is

"irods_host": "scomp0000.wurnet.nl",

does $IRODS_HOST take over when that is set? Not sure what the official order was nowadays when you explicitly give a config file.

[jjkoehorst]

Should have checked indeed $IRODS_HOST takes over... is that preferred?

[iychoi]

the -c or --config flag actually reads config from the file given. Can you double check if it really is an issue?

[jjkoehorst]

Did you try with setting IRODS_HOST to something else?

[iychoi]

The result above didn't set any environmental variables.

If I set the environmental varaible IRODS_HOST, it will overwrite configuration provided. Environmental variables have the highest priority setting configuration values in iCommands and GoCommands.

Yeah I wanted to double check

• default json from standard location
  • System variables override default json
  • Manual set of json overrides system variables

is then not the case but it is

• default json from standard location
  • Manual set of json overrides standard location
  • System variables override all json

then I just need to make sure I unset system variables on a local device when working with multiple config files. Thanks!

Yes, the priority was set to address this issue.

Thanks for testing.
