Config file

When the program starts it creates a config file with name .run-flogo-app in your home directory. It is a simple json file which looks like this:

{
  "appsDir": "/home/abhijit/Downloads",
  "appPattern": "^.+-linux_amd64.*$",
  "isUpdateAvailable": false,
  "updateURL": "",
  "releaseNotes": ""
}

You can override the programs' behavior by changing appsDir and appPattern variables in this file.
