RFE: -f config file option #2

I've been looking for a way to notify myself (focus) and this project looks like just the ticket! The problem is that my focus will change frequently, and I'd like to have the focus driven by the task or timer that I'm working on. If Focus had a -f file option, with all of the config settings, I could have my programs (taskwarrior and ledger-cli) swap out that file when the activity changes, and the notifications would follow.

I'm a long-time taskwarrior user, and have long wished for a system to remind me when a task is started. If you can figure out the config-file option, I would write a taskwarrior hook to interact with it, that I would call "taskworrier-hook". (I think it's funny, anyway :)

thanks!

I like that! Getting Focus work with another app is really impressive to see. I hadn't update it for a while now, but that's motivating. I think instead of the config idea, I actually was planning to make Focus as centralized service with client server approach, to add tasks to the running daemon using the CLI (and update settings/remove if needed) using IPC (unix sockets), this were in progress in service branch.
From that maybe you can add a wrapper/hook to interact to add/update/remove reminders setting.

Tell me what do you think about that. Thanks
