Is there a more elegant solution for multiple agency callsigns rather than me having to maintain and copy two different .json files to config.json?

I am an amateur and SHARES operator and would like to just maintain and use one config.json file but I was never able to get the "auxiliary_addresses" to work with different service codes so I resorted to two scripts - one to start Pat and VARA for amateur use and another to start Pat and VARA for SHARES.

If not, I'll gladly submit a request on the GitHub page.

Hi Joel,

You can override config values using env vars. Will that make things easier for you?

PAT_MYCALL and PAT_SECURELOGINPASSWORD.

Maybe have two scripts, that simply set those variables and starts pat? At least you won't have to maintain separate config files :)

Thanks, Martin. I’ll give that a try.
