When looking in XDG_CONFIG_HOME YAML config file shouldn't have dot prefix
When storing configuration files in XDG_CONFIG_HOME, it's not typical to also have the configuration file be a hidden file.
e.g.
~/.ticker.yaml
~/.config/ticker/ticker.yaml
This issue is just a placeholder to make the config file loader a bit more robust in how it search/loads the config file to allow for a bit more leeway. The README does note the file being called .ticker.yaml
in both cases, but it would also be nice (perhaps) to allow for both styles.
I agree this is highly unusual and confusing. It took me a long while to find the config file. Additionally the file should be placed in a separate directory ticker
within $XDG_CONFIG_HOME
. This allows for flexibility when adding further configuration.
