Edit python configuration file to contain Grobid path

Question

I have installed Robot-reviewer from github following all the passages. I'm at one of the last passages where it asks

"Edit the robotreviewer/config.py file to contain the path to the directory where you have installed Grobid. (RobotReviewer will start it automatically in a subprocess). Note that this should be the path to the entire (parent) Grobid directory, not the bin subfolder."

Unfortunately I didn't find any tutorial to do this and I'm not practical with python. How can i accomplish this?

The github link for this repo is https://github.com/ijmarshall/robotreviewer3

It might be a typo. The `config.json` looks much more likely to be the one where to edit the path. — blubberdiblub, Jan 20 '17 at 11:13

It's just a typo in the README.md.

The config.py is the module that loads the configuration and the actual configuration is in the config.json file.

Thus, config.json is actually where you're expected to make changes.

(However, other Python projects sometimes indeed use Python files for configuration, so you cannot generalize that you should never touch them.)
