Unable to override settings file #162

Open gleake-reorg opened 4 months ago

gleake-reorg commented 4 months ago

Hi Team,

I am trying to override the log settings so that I can dump my logs to a custom file in a custom directory. However, the scrapyRT code never allows a user's custom settings configs to be used. Instead, it always just uses the default scrapyRT settings: see here

Presently, the only way to fix this is for me to go into the package and overwrite the default settings manually. This seems to be related to other issues raise in the past, including:

Would it be possible to get a fix for this?

Thanks!

hello @gleake-reorg thanks for reporting, I'll check that. There are some maintenance updates to be done, so it will be good to make a new release. I'll give you ETA for release with fix for this after researching the causes of this problem.
