Can we add an option to assign config path?

In order to use cppcheck with pre-commit, I try to package cppcheck as a python wheel. Attachment is code. However:

❯ ptpython
In [1]: from cppcheck import cppcheck
In [2]: cppcheck("--enable=all", "--error-exitcode=1", "/home/wzy/Desktop/cppcheck-wheel/tests/input.c")
cppcheck: Failed to load library configuration file 'std.cfg'. File not found
Failed to load std.cfg. Your Cppcheck installation is broken, please re-install. The Cppcheck binary was compiled with FILESDIR set to "/tmp/tmp4jbtnk_g/wheel/platlib/cppcheck/data/share/Cppcheck" and will therefore search for std.cfg in /tmp/tmp4jbtnk_g/wheel/platlib/cppcheck/data/share/Cppcheck/cfg.

Can we cppcheck --cfg=XXXX to change search path?

setting /tmp/tmp4jbtnk_g/wheel/platlib/cppcheck/data/share/Cppcheck as FILESDIR seems unfortunate. Can't you skip the FILESDIR and put the cppcheck binary and configuration files together?

How to skip the FILESDIR?

Do not use -DFILESDIR when you compile cppcheck
