# ConfigLoader structDir path issue (2025-12-17 07:34Z)

_**User**_

This should be capable of running anywhere and turning the structDir into wherever the script was run from.

PS R:\Creative\artsy\maya\0 ProjectStructure> .\ConfigLoader.ps1
Paste the project path to deploy in: "C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\2025-12-17 Little Reindeer"
Write-Error: Configured structDir not found: A:\1 Amazon_Active_Projects\3 ProjectStructure
PS R:\Creative\artsy\maya\0 ProjectStructure>

Examining `ConfigLoader.ps1` to understand its current behavior.

The script reads `structDir` from `config.json`, which has a hardcoded path that doesn't exist. Updating it to always use the script's directory as `structDir` when run directly, regardless of the config.

Updating `Get-StructDirectory` to always use the script's directory when run directly, ignoring the config value for portability.

Additional data:

```json

Updated `Get-StructDirectory` to always use the script's directory when run directly, ignoring the config value. This makes the script portable—you can run it from any location and it will use its own directory as `structDir`.

When dot-sourced (imported by other scripts), it still respects the config value for backward compatibility.

Checking for linter errors:


---

<tool-use data-tool-type="unknown" data-tool-name="read_lints">
<details>
<summary>Tool use: **read_lints**</summary>


Parameters:

```json
{
  "paths": [
    "R:\\Creative\\artsy\\maya\\0 ProjectStructure\\ConfigLoader.ps1"
  ]
}
```
Result:

```json
{
  "linterErrorsByFile": [
    {
      "relativeWorkspacePath": "R:\\Creative\\artsy\\maya\\0 ProjectStructure\\ConfigLoader.ps1"
    }
  ]
}
```
Status: **completed**

Change complete. The script now uses its own directory as `structDir` when run directly, regardless of the config value. You can run it from any location and it will work correctly.

Let's have it change the structDir value in config.json

Updating the script to set `structDir` in `config.json` to the script's directory when run directly.

Adding a function to update `config.json` and calling it when the script runs directly:
