I have a rasa-powered chatbot that I’ve been working on for awhile and the directory structure isn’t exactly what rasa x expects. Is there a page that defines what constitutes a “valid Rasa project?” Also, can I point Rasa X to the files it needs (eg. `domain.yml`) using command line flags?

Check out the project structure created by `rasa init` [here](http://rasa.com/docs/rasa/user-guide/rasa-tutorial/#create-a-new-project). As of right now, you can’t pass the file locations with command line arguments.
