Does't support -config option

[denis-isaev]

When I run
exifTool.read(file, ['-config /path/to/exiftool.config', '-n'])`
get the error message: "Invalid TAG name: config"

read is running from within a stay-open stream, so I suspect giving a -config option there is too late.

If you use exiftoolArgs (one of the new options in the ExifTool constructor), you should be able to add your option.

See http://owl.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/exiftool_pod.html#config-CFGFILE for details.

Thanks. This works (config parameter needs to be the first arg):
const exifTool = new ExifTool({ exiftoolArgs: ['-config', '/proj/ExifTool.config', '-stay_open', 'True', '-@', '-'] });
exifTool.read(file, ['-n'])
