[Feature Request] Discover config files in Node.js code #1841
Description
Is this a feature request or a bug?
A feature request.
What is the current behavior?
Below code doesn't read web-ext-config.js or webExt in package.json.
import webExt from 'web-ext';
webExt.cmd.run({
sourceDir: '/path/to/source/',
});What is the expected or desired behavior?
I wanted webExt.cmd.run to discover default config files. I read web-ext's code and I guess current behavior is intentional.
So my suggestion is: adding an option like loadConfigFiles or configPath to webExt.cmd.run's second argument. E.g.
webExt.cmd.run({
sourceDir: '/path/to/source/'
}, {
loadConfigFiles: true
// or
// configPath: '/path/to/config'
});I think this option would be useful for bundler plugins.
Actually I'm writing my Parcel plugin. Since Parcel is "zero configuration", I'm considering some ways how I pass configuration to web-ext.
