Continuous Search not working with YAML file

[boydthomson]

Describe the bug

I have tried every conceivable combination of continuous: true and search-forever, yet no matter what, camply exits as soon as it finds a site.

Original Camply Command (with --debug)

YAML:

provider: goingtocamp
recreation_area: # (LIST OR SINGLE ENTRY)
  - 12
campgrounds: # ENTIRE FIELD CAN BE OMITTED IF NOT USED - (LIST OR SINGLE ENTRY)
  - -2147483647 # Alice Lake
  - -2147483606 # Golden Ears
  - -2147483550 # Porteau Cove
  - -2147483618 # Manning Park
  - -2147483535 # Silver Lake

Can you supply your YAML file as written using GitHub code blocks?

Actually, I was able to decipher the YAML format @boydthomson

Details

```yaml provider: goingtocamp recreation_area: 12 campgrounds: - -2147483647 # Alice Lake - -2147483606 # Golden Ears - -2147483550 # Porteau Cove - -2147483618 # Manning Park - -2147483535 # Silver Lake start_date: - 2024-06-28 - 2024-07-03 - 2024-07-10 - 2024-07-17 - 2024-07-24 - 2024-07-31 - 2024-06-27 - 2024-07-04 - 2024-07-11 - 2024-07-18 - 2024-07-25 - 2024-08-01 end_date: - 2024-06-30 - 2024-07-06 - 2024-07-13 - 2024-07-20 - 2024-07-27 - 2024-08-03 - 2024-06-30 - 2024-07-07 - 2024-07-14 - 2024-07-21 - 2024-07-28 - 2024-08-04 notifications: - pushover - email continuous: true ```

You're missing the search_forever field in the YAML file (I think you might be trying search-forever)

Thanks, I was trying to figure out how to do that!

the underscore worked. I was confused because the command-line option was with the hyphen at https://juftin.com/camply/how_to_run/#search-forever.

It's working now. Thanks so much!!!
