Container - LOCALE and DESIGN from SETTINGS dont work

Author: DoctorD90Created Aug 29, 2026Updated Aug 29, 2026

Im running container version

bash

docker pull ghcr.io/rendercv/rendercv:sha256-699aaee00c9e6754e75bdfbbc37439d6e94ec32d67f0e4065b276ab8b66929f7

Im using options:

 --settings settings.yaml

But it completely ignores LOCALE and DESIGN parameter; I have copied the content from the current docs:

settings:
  current_date: today
  render_command:
    design: design.yaml
    locale: locale.yaml

The only way to let them being loaded is using other cli options:

--settings settings.yaml --design design.yaml --locale-catalog locale.yaml

(and comment the 2 related lines in the settings just to be sure).
