Updated config.yaml but values aren't updated #17

Closed backslashV closed 3 years ago

backslashV commented 3 years ago

Hi, I have updated the config.yaml sit/stand height values but the script still uses the old values. I don't think these values are cached. Can you help please?

Thanks

I had to remove the config.yaml located at ~/.config/idasen-controller and then the values from the example/config.yaml folder were used. Is this expected? meaning the config.yaml at ~/.config/idasen-controller isn't automatically updated when example/config.yaml gets updated?

It is not expected that the example/config.yaml file is used. How have you installed it?

I would recommend installing it using pip:

pip3 install idasen-controller

I just reread your comment. You should edit the values in the ~/.config/idasen-controller/config.yaml file and the script should use that.

You should not edit example/config.yaml. The only time that is used is if there is no config file in ~/.config/idasen-controller/` in which case it is copied over so you have something to edit.

Cool, thanks.
