There are various ways to specify the configuration. The prioritization is as follows:
Explicit specification:
-
Command line flags
--cfg=.... -
Cargo.tomlpackage metadata[package.metadata.spellcheck] config = "somewhere/cfg.toml"
-
Cargo.tomlworkspace metadata[workspace.metadata.spellcheck] config = "somewhere/else/cfg.toml"
which will fail if specified and not existent on the filesystem.
If neither of those ways of specification is present, continue with the implicit.
Cargo.tomlmetadata in the current working directoryCWD.- Check the first arguments location if present, else the current working directory for
.config/spellcheck.toml. - Fallback to per user configuration files:
- Linux:
/home/alice/.config/cargo_spellcheck/config.toml - Windows:
C:\Users\Alice\AppData\Roaming\cargo_spellcheck\config.toml - macOS:
/Users/Alice/Library/Preferences/cargo_spellcheck/config.toml
- Linux:
- Use the default, builtin configuration (see
configsub-command).
Since this is rather complex, add -vv to your invocation to see the info
level logs printed, which will contain the config path.
