Usage Question: User defined configuration

I have an usage question. I’m designing a toolbox that will contain a configuration of approaches to train and evaluate ML models. This toolbox is an application that can be installed with it’s own configuration files.

Is there a way for the user to:

• Define their own set of configuration files locally: configs/<groups>/user_impl.yaml. For example, their own dataset and models
• Define their own local config.yaml file that can utilize the local configurations and the packaged configurations

I’m struggling to figure out a solution to this. Do I use the search_path plugin? The compose interface? Structured configs? I may be missing something simple. I feel like it’s right there but I can’t see it!

Ack. That was it! I had to do pip install . 🙄

Thanks for your patience and help, much appreciated
