The config file will be looked for in - ~/.config/auto-selfcontrol/config.json - /usr/local/etc/auto-selfcontrol/config.json - $DIR/config.json (same directory as where Auto-SelfControl has been installed) If not found, created in ~/.config/auto-selfcontrol/config.json This will make it easier to backup and sync it across installs. Answers andreasgrill#58 It also works on new ARM-based Macs where brewed bins are in `/opt/homebrew/`, no longer in `/usr/local/`. This will not move an existing config file. Moving can be done manually: mv /usr/local/etc/auto-selfcontrol/config.json ~/.config/auto-selfcontrol/ auto-selfcontrol will find this new location first.

Thanks for the PR! I agree that storing the configuration in the user home dir is better for backups and migrations. |
