02:32 <Armbian-Discord> <l​anefu> your face was a weird decision

06:40 <Armbian-Discord> <j​kent> hrm, i'm trying to specify a custom userpatches path or custom config path

06:41 <Armbian-Discord> <j​kent> its falling back to the default location

06:45 <Armbian-Discord> <j​kent> oh i see now, it looks for userpatches/config-$1.conf

06:57 <Armbian-Discord> <j​kent> I'm not sure if i can override it though

06:57 <Armbian-Discord> <j​kent> or rather, how to

08:31 <Armbian-Discord> <j​kent> I think I've done it with the following... kinda hacky... call it config-userpatches.conf and symlink to it as needed bash CONFIG_NAME=$(echo "${CONFIG}" | sed 's/userpatches\/config-\(.*\)\.conf/\1/') USERPATCHES_PATH=$(realpath "${CONFIG_PATH}/../userpatches-${CONFIG_NAME}") CONFIG_FILE="${USERPATCHES_PATH}/config-default.conf" display_alert "Using config file" "${CONFIG_FILE}" "info" source "${CONFIG_FILE}"

11:14 <Armbian-Discord> <l​anefu> Yeah I used to keep my userpatches folder in a seperate git checkout then symlink or bind mount to build/userpatches

11:15 <Armbian-Discord> <l​anefu> But your hacky method looks effective

16:06 <Armbian-Discord> <j​kent> I do think it would be nice if the output directory was customizable too

16:11 <Armbian-Discord> <j​kent> as another hack, i could make that part of the config script too

16:12 <lanefu> check out the armbian-next branch.... lots of leg work to make things plugable and flexible... https://github.com/armbian/build/tree/armbian-next

16:12 <ArmbianHelper> ^ GitHub - armbian/build at armbian-next

16:13 <Armbian-Discord> <j​kent> ooh, okay, thanks

17:40 <Armbian-Discord> <j​kent> unfortunately armbian-next still hardcodes the output path to be ${SRC}/output , might be a good first contribution

17:41 <Armbian-Discord> <j​kent> i see some places ${DEST} is used

17:52 <Armbian-Discord> <j​kent> solution for that is this: OUTPUT_PATH=$(realpath "${SRC}/output-${CONFIG_NAME}") if [[ -d "${SRC}/output" ]]; then mv "${SRC}/output" "${OUTPUT_PATH}" else rm -f "${SRC}/output" fi mkdir -p "${OUTPUT_PATH}" ln -s "${OUTPUT_PATH}" "${SRC}/output"
