Describe the bug
When I am trying to run experiment using --var-file to get and replace environment configurations , but it is not working . Below is sample command and files

chaos --var-file config.json run experiment.json

config.json
{ "configuration": { "CLUSTER" : "testcluster" } }

experiment.json

{ "title": "Testing", "description": "Perform failure", "configuration": { "cluster_name": { "type": "env", "key": "CLUSTER" } }, "steady-state-hypothesis": { }, "method": [ { } ], "rollbacks": [ ] }

Runtime versions

$ python --version

Steps to reproduce the behavior.

Expected behavior
As per documentation , --var-file filepath.json|yaml|.env option can be used for externalize configurations and setting values.

Additional context

I think the --var-file is on the run command. But I think more importantly, your config is wrong.

It should be

{ "configuration": { "cluster_name" : "testcluster" } }

@Lawouach Thanks for reply. Now It is working . Also --var-file is not working with "type" : "env" configuration key .
