# `config_filename`

- Property of Plugin

This property returns the path to the file that holds the config for this plugin in the loaded project. This is by default in `configs/<plugin-id>.ini`. Plugins could override this in theory but it's not recommended. The primary use of this property is to track dependencies.

For a convenient way to load the config see get_config.

## Example

    from lektor.pluginsystem import Plugin
    from lektor.context import get_ctx

    class MyPlugin(Plugin):

        def on_setup_env(self, **extra):
            color = self.get_config().get('color')
            def get_css(artifact_name='/static/demo.css'):
                ctx = get_ctx()
                @ctx.sub_artifact(artifact_name, sources=[
                    self.config_filename])
                def build_stylesheet(artifact):
                    with artifact.open('w') as f:
                        f.write('body { background: %s }\n' % color)
                return artifact_name
            self.env.jinja_env.globals['get_css'] = get_css
