NAME

       dpt-config - dpt configuration

DESCRIPTION

       dpt(1) configuration lives in plain text files using POSIX shell syntax. The files are sourced by the
       tools, not parsed.

LOCATION

       Configuration files are looked for in the following locations, in order, and every found file is sourced
       by the script, later files possibly overriding the previous ones.

       ~/.dpt.conf
       ~/.config/dpt.conf

TIPS & TRICKS

   Run dpt(1) from git
       When  bugs  in  dpt(1)  are  fixed  or  new  features are implemented in git but not yet available in the
       uploaded version, you may want to run dpt and its sub-scripts from your local clone of the pkg-perl-tools
       repository.  This can be done by setting the following variables in .dpt.conf:

           # needed anyway, adjust path
           DPT_PACKAGES=~/src/pkg-perl/packages
           # specific for running from git
           DPT__SCRIPTS=$DPT_PACKAGES/pkg-perl-tools/scripts
           export PERL5LIB=$DPT_PACKAGES/pkg-perl-tools/lib

   Storing tokens
       If you keep your configuration files in a (potentially) public git  repository,  you  might  be  wary  of
       sticking  tokens like DPT_GITHUB_OAUTH or DPT_SALSA_PRIVATE_TOKEN in your .dpt.conf. As .dpt.conf is just
       a shell fragment which gets sourced, you can put those variables in a different file  (and  don't  commit
       this one). E.g.

           [ ! -e ~/.dpt.conf.$(hostname) ] || . ~/.dpt.conf.$(hostname)
