Also think about a potentially breaking change for 1.0 as we want to move away from dot files and look for eleventy.config.cjs and eleventy.config.js too (file separately).

I think this will be an additional lookup instead of a replacement for .eleventy.js.

For consistency between other .*rc.js configurations, eg: .eslintrc.js, .prettierrc.js can we please add an additional default .eleventyrc.js?

@rynz, this may not change anything, but ESLint is moving to eslint.config.js.

@valtlai, that changes everything! Thank you for the heads up :)

FWIW: in 0.12.1, manually setting the config to eleventy.config.js causes oddities with the BrowserSync config in dev mode (e.g., it doesn’t refresh the browser when CSS files are updated). Is this because of hard-coding that, one would assume, will be altered in 1.0.x to allow for eleventy.config.js rather than .eleventy.js?

@brycewray I think it might be related to #1448 and #1568

Punting this one out of 1.0—sorry y’all!

…ult eleventy config files

Currently only .eleventy.js is supported as the default config file.

This PR implements a possible solution for multiple config file. It intentionally just implements support for multiple default config files.

The implementation might be a little flaky around unittests, but it passes all of them consistently.

A future PR should probably look into allowing usage of multiple config files at once. This only uses the first existing one.

How can I tell eleventy to look for my configuration file in my configuration folder, without creating a configuration file in the root folder?

Ex:

root /
/configuration/eleventy.config.cjs
/src /...

@AdryAtDev You can pass a --config parameter when you call 11ty: https://www.11ty.dev/docs/usage/#config-to-change-the-config-file-name
