Need help setting up CFA for specific path

Post by MBaas »

I'd like to set up a CFA that is valid in one folder only - isn't that possible?

|"Bibel importieren|:foretab" \git\bible_databases\formats\json\*.json > "python import_bible_database.py <curitem>"


When I open CFAs while being on a .json in that folder, that item is not suggested. What am I missing?

That's not possible. CFAs are global.

Wrong! See below...

Though for some reason i apparently have same false idea, like somebody in the past showed CFA working for the specific path(don't remember where i saw that), maybe this theoretical hint could work instead: CFA that uses a script, which instead checks what is the location and selects proper app to work with that file type.

Indeed, you are right!

CFAs can be defined for specific paths, e.g.:
C:\Users\Donald\Desktop\Test\*.txt>C:\Users\Donald\AppData\Local\Programs\EmEditor\EmEditor.exe

Great! But why isn't it working for me then?

\git\bible_databases\formats\json\ does not look like a valid path.

Even with the drive-specification it doesn't show up on the file C:\Git\bible_databases\formats\json\YLT.json
