plugins:
  local:
    path: /home/YOUR_USERNAME/delivered_appliances
    package: true
    overwrite: false

You cannot use environment variables such as $HOME or ~/ for the local delivery plugin's path parameter
At present a literal path must be used for local path param, as BoxGrinder Build does not handle environment variables correctly for this specific field. This will be fixed in an upcoming version.
