Override system

Override system goes from default -> yaml -> options. So if you define a config in the yaml, you could always override it using in option, see examples below for the tar command.

Default

Dropcat are using default values if nothing is configured, some options do not have a deafault value, like the app name. To see default values run dropcat help command. Example:

--temp-path[=TEMP-PATH]   Temp (./ for current dir) [default: "/tmp"]
--folder[=FOLDER]         Folder

Here you could see that temp-path has a default value, and folder don’t.

Yaml

local:
  environment:
    app_path: /path/to/my/code/to/deploy
    tmp_path: /tmp/mycustom/path

Options

--folder[=FOLDER]         Folder
--temp-path[=TEMP-PATH]   Temp (./ for current dir) [default: "/tmp"]

Example:

dropcat tar --folder=/my/folder --temp-path=/tmp/cutom/path
