I have a temporary config file in /tmp/abc . soft link for the same has been created under /etc/config/abc.
Contents of /tmp/abc file.
config test
option xyz '12'
uci set of 'xyz' option is not updating the value in the /tmp/abc config file.
util.ubus() is being used for setting the value.
util.ubus("uci", "set", { config = 'abc', type = 'test', values = { xyx= '14'}})

Uci command I think you're looking for the -p option.
I don't know the equivalent in ubus
Just tried the uci set using the command line utility
uci set -p /tmp/ abc.test.xyz=20
Did not work and responded with the uci usage prompt.
I believe it should be uci -p /tmp/ set abc.test.xyz=20.
Had to use the below command
uci -p /tmp/ set abc.@test[0].xyz=20
Able to set and the updated value is shown using uci changes.
When i tried to commit the chnages using uci commit, it rejects with uci: I/O error .
-c set the search path for config files (default: /etc/config)
You also need to use this flag in uci commit
it works !!
uci -p /tmp/ set abc.@test[0].xyz=20
uci -c /tmp/ commit
Is there a way where we can specify multiple paths of config files and continue to use the generic uci set and uci commit command without -c flag?
I think you should use -c here: -p is for config change files, which is something else I believe.
