Could not load 'config.yml'

[NSMyself]

What's broken?

I can't use this; I just tried to install wtfutil using Brew and ran into this:

ERROR Could not load 'config.yml'.

This could mean one of two things:

    1. That file doesn't exist.
    2. That file has a YAML syntax error. Try running it through http://www.yamllint.com to check for errors.

Error: open /Users/username/.config/wtf/config.yml: no such file or directory

I can confirm that this path does not exist (the wtf folder is not there) but brew install ran fine (as did the previous command, brew tap). I'm on macOS Mojave (10.14.6).

I ran into this issue as well, running touch ~/.config/wtf/config.ymldid the trick. File doesn't exist, but it created the directory in my case.

Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS same error.

You need to create a config.yml file in /Users/username/.config/wtf/config.yml

I just ran into this. I put my entire config in there, because why not?
¯_(ツ)_/¯

The app should do that for you the first time you run it, with config.yml populated with some example modules. Seems its failing to do that for some people.

Confirmed that it's creating the ~/.config/wtf/ directory but not the config file.

This fix will be out in the next release.
