From b78efdd1552e5567d68ca6cebe85617989b2a202 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: fleopaulD Date: Fri, 30 Dec 2022 14:59:28 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Added clarification on client.yml configuration I didn't understand why the `ntfy publish --debug topic message` command don't choose the default-host I entered in `/etc/ntfy/client.yml`. If command is run as sudo -> config file = `/etc/ntfy/client.yml` If command is run as non-sudo -> config file = `~/.config/ntfy/client.yml` I think this is an important precision for users. --- docs/install.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/docs/install.md b/docs/install.md index 06be9817..00b03639 100644 --- a/docs/install.md +++ b/docs/install.md @@ -14,7 +14,7 @@ We support amd64, armv7 and arm64. 1.
