Custom Config Directory

By default crib finds your devcontainer config by walking up from the current directory, looking for .devcontainer/devcontainer.json. If your config lives elsewhere (e.g. you have multiple configs or a non-standard name), use --config / -C to point directly to the folder that contains devcontainer.json:

crib -C .devcontainer-custom up
crib -C .devcontainer-custom shell

To avoid repeating that flag, create a .cribrc file in the directory you run crib from:

.cribrc

config = .devcontainer-custom

An explicit --config on the command line takes precedence over .cribrc.
