Error: Cannot find config file

Hi,

I've tried to use another config with -c option but smuggler returns an error:

$ python3 smuggler.py -c configs/doubles.py -u https://example.com 

  ______                         _

     @defparam                         v1.1

P.S. Hackish way to get around this is to copy desired config to default.py 😃 P.P.S. Thanks for the tool!

Hey Nikita,

Thanks for reporting the issue. This could be a documentation issue but the script searches for config files starting at the configs directory. The command for using doubles.py should be:

python3 smuggler.py -c doubles.py -u https://example.com

Please try that and let me know. Don’t self-close this issue, at a minimum I want to update the documentation.

Thanks! Evan

Hi Evan,

python3 smuggler.py -c doubles.py -u https://example.com this works just fine :)

Thanks for your response!

Sir Can we input our config file?? If yes, how because everytime i input the location or put .py file in config folder still shows config file not found. As you can see in the picture

@TechnicalPredator Smuggler has a small bug in attempting to figure out if the passed configfile path is an absolute path. As a result, the best bet is to put your configfile in the project's configs (e.g. "myconfig.py") folder and then use argument e.g. -c myconfig.py.

I've made a tiny PR for this. https://github.com/defparam/smuggler/pull/22
