config file location

[olegakbarov]

It is somewhat tricky to tell Omniconf where to look for a configuration file.

could you please elaborate on that? I have a .edn file in root directory of the project and it doesn't seem to be parsed.

Relevant code:

(defn ring-init []
  (let [local-config "dev-config.edn"]
    (if (.exists (io/as-file local-config))
      (cfg/populate-from-file local-config)
      (log/warn "Can't find local dev configuration file" local-config))
    (init)))

@olegakbarov I referred to a situation when you want to specify the confg file dynamically rather than hardcode it. In the case of hardcoding there shouldn't be any problem.

In your case, it is weird that the file is not parsed. I assume you don't get a warning, and populate-from-file silently finishes without making any changes?

i got an following error:

ERROR: [:telegram-token] : Value must be provided.

ofcourse :telegram-token exists in dev-config.edn, so i'm confused

Problem solves when i add default value to (cfg/define ... )

Can you run (cfg/populate-from-file "dev-config.edn"), and then (cfg/report-configuration)? It will also help if you add another value into the file and see if it appears in the configuration. That way we'll see if the file is parsed at all.

I'm sorry, that's my code. Wrong order of initialization.

Thanks for help and good luck with awesome library!

Great to know, thank you!
