Hi, is there a way to specify the yaml file for meltano to use?
d
@or_barda The
meltano
CLI needs not just a
meltano.yml
file but an entire project directory where it can find that file and create a
.meltano
directory, so you cannot directly specify a path for
meltano.yml
, but you can specify a project directory path using the
MELTANO_PROJECT_ROOT
env var. If the env var is not set, the current working directory is assumed to be the project dir.

Got it, I just wanted meltano to get the definition of my tap sometimes from different file

To what end? 🙂 There may be a better way to realize what you're trying to do!
