Unable to specify general download directory in Mastodon config

[ntqr]

For some reason, I'm unable to specify the download directory of mastodon without having to specify them for each mastodon instance extractors. The filename key works, but for the directory key I have to specify them individually for each instance like this:

"mastodon": 
{
	"filename": "name_test_{id}_{media[id]}.{extension}",
	"baraag.net": 
	{
		"access-token": "",
		"client-id": "",
		"client-secret": ""
	},
	"pawoo.net": 
	{
		"access-token": "",
		"client-id": "",
		"client-secret":  ""
	}		
},
"baraag":
{
	"directory": ["mastodon", "dir_test", "{account[username]}"]
},
...

So, is there a way to specify the download directory for all mastodon instances?

I've taken your config example, modified a tiny bit (disabled access-tokens to use the default, added general directory in mastodon), and it works like it is supposed to: pawoo URLs use the general setting and baraag URLs the specialized one.

There is also nothing in the code that would cause config value lookup to work for filename but not for directory. Maybe it's just a typo on your end?

$ cat mastodon.json
{"extractor": {

"mastodon":
{
	"filename": "name_test_{id}_{media[id]}.{extension}",
	"directory": ["mastodon", "dir_test", "{account[username]}"],

	"baraag.net":
	{
		"-access-token": "",
		"client-id": "",
		"client-secret": ""
	},
	"pawoo.net":
	{
		"-access-token": "",
		"client-id": "",
		"client-secret":  ""
	}
},
"baraag":
{
	"directory": ["baraag", "dir_test", "{account[username]}"]
}

}}

Ok, I looked into this a bit deeper and it seems that what's happening is that extractor.mastodon.directory is not properly overriding the base level extractor.directory, so it was using what I put in extractor.directory.
When I removed extractor.directory, it works fine.
