CLI: Configuration file

Configuration file

Use configuration file to simplify your bash command. Arguments used in command always override properties set in the configuration file. By default, SimpleLocalize will load configuration from file named simplelocalize.yml. You can load configuration from different location by using a -c parameters.

# Load default simplelocalize.yml file
simplelocalize upload

# Use configuration file at custom location
simplelocalize -c my-configuration.yml upload
