Good job.

I'm going to try new version. I have a question in regard to config. Is the option to configure with environment variables removed completely, or I misread the readme? Is it possible to allow both file and env config, in similar to what implemented in grafana, restic, rclone and others? It is not very convenient to keep the configuration file on disk at all times when using Docker, and this is what I liked about the first version of the proxy - it could be launched directly from the image.

Thanks. Yes, this is a concern I’ve got a couple of time. From developer perspective, this is easier for me to have a structured config when cli implies flat one. I have worked with both approaches for some time and I feel myself better with configs.

At the same time, I see your point and it is absolutely valid. I also value tools which run only with CLI and require nothing on FS to starup.

My idea is that I’ll make a separate CLI command which accepts all config values with options or environment but I plan to do it in the next release. Say, 2.0.1. I guess, we can take best from both worlds: structured config, config file and stateless configuration with options and variables.

What do you think?
