Hmm generally it should work. Is that json file next to your tauri.conf.json? (That's where the cli should look for)

[Orgil]

json file is under src-tauri folder. if i put content of file as string, it works.

My json file is under src-tauri folder. I ran yarn tauri dev -c ./src-tauri/file.json it gives error. If i cd into src-tauri then run yarn tauri dev -c file.json it works. It gives error from the root of the project.

I found a inconsistency between the dev and build command, i'll change both to look for the file relative to the CWD.

Seems weird that your CWD is changing yarn behavior since yarn should change CWD to your project root.

So in the current CLI yarn tauri dev -c file.json and yarn tauri build -c src-tauri/file.json should work if $PROJECT_DIR/src-tauri/file.json exists.
