CLI arguments in dap.continue()

[lars-vc]

I want to debug a program that takes cli arguments. I see that this is possible using run, but run doesn't search for the current file's configuration, and continue doesn't take any options. So is there a clean way of doing this?
My idea (take this as semi psuedo code) was something like this:

vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>dq", function()
    local args = vim.fn.input("Cli arguments: ")
    require("dap").continue({
        args = args,
    })
end, { noremap = true })

I could find a way to prompt the cli args in the configuration itself, but then it would need to be added to each configuration etc.
So I am mainly wondering if there is a cleaner way.

If you really want to add the same args to all configurations, it's just a bit of lua:

local dap = require("dap")
for ft, configs in pairs(dap.configurations) do
    for _, config in ipairs(configs) do
        config.args = args
    end
end

The usual approach is to have one dedicated configuration that prompts for args. For example:

    {
      type = 'python';
      request = 'launch';
      name = 'Launch file with arguments';
      program = '${file}';
      args = function()
        local args_string = vim.fn.input('Arguments: ')
        return vim.split(args_string, " +")
      end;
    }

Oh I didn't realize you can make multiple configs for 1 language and then pick the config. Thanks a lot for the swift answer!

Mmmh, one thing though, maybe this is a bug: When running a config, terminating and then running run_last, it will run that previous config without reprompting arguments. However, if you then run terminate and run continue then terminate and then run_last it will reprompt every time.
Step by step:

• continue
• terminate
• run_last, all is good, no reprompt
• continue
• terminate
• run_last, reprompts!
