Is there a way to set this via a config file? like the docker compose yml?

how could I configure this in the docker compose?
Edit: the trains-agent points to a different trains.conf config as I wis., I want the dev environment to point to a different location trains.conf as well

My root folder is applicable to my user only. I wish to use a shared trains.conf file, so the trains_config_file can't point to ~/trains.conf sadly

In your development environment you don't have a docker-compose file... Can't you simply set it in your .bashrc file?

I'll do as Jake says. Thanks :)

Hi SmarmySeaurchin8

You can configure TRAINS_CONFIG_FILE env var with the conf file you want to run it with. Can this do the trick?

For the trains-agent , you have an option to specify the trains.conf file you want it to run with. just start the trains-agent with trains-agent --config ~/trains_agent.conf (where ~/trains_agent.conf is your ~/trains.conf file for the agent run).

how could I configure this in the docker compose?

Do you mean to env vars?

You can configure env vars in your docker compose, but what is your scenario? Maybe there are some other solutions

let me try
