.arnoldrc File

[hjc]

I think it would be really nice to have a .arnoldrc file for specifying common command line flags and values. Some options:

• Specify the value for --folder. We'd love to put our migrations in migrations/, but specifying the command line argument every time is tedious.
• Specify the default value for up (e.g., 0).
• Specify the default value for down (e.g., 1).
• Specify any other values for future commands that might be added (such as a migration template file).

Nothing fancy here, and can only provide simple command line defaults.

I'd love to remove the concept of the arnold_config and simply have a migrations folder and database argument that could be passed through.

What you can do to get around this is create a local bash script and run it with the default arguments.

#!/bin/bash          
arnold --folder ./migrations $0

I haven't tested this, but it should be a good starting point.
