anastasis.conf - Anastasis configuration file
The configuration file is line-oriented.
Blank lines and whitespace at the beginning and end of a line are ignored.
Comments start with # or % in the first column
(after any beginning-of-line whitespace) and go to the end of the line.
The file is split into sections.
Every section begins with “[SECTIONNAME]” and
contains a number of options of the form “OPTION=VALUE”.
There may be whitespace around the = (equal sign).
Section names and options are case-insensitive.
The values, however, are case-sensitive.
In particular, boolean values are one of YES or NO.
Values can include whitespace by surrounding
the entire value with " (double quote).
Note, however, that there are no escape characters in such strings;
all characters between the double quotes (including other double quotes)
are taken verbatim.
Values that represent filenames can begin with a /bin/sh-like
variable reference.
This can be simple, such as $TMPDIR/foo, or complex,
such as ${TMPDIR:-${TMP:-/tmp}}/foo.
See [PATHS] (below).
Values that represent a time duration are represented as a series of one or
more NUMBER UNIT pairs, e.g. 60 s, 4 weeks 1 day, 5 years 2 minutes.
Values that represent an amount are in the usual amount syntax:
CURRENCY:VALUE.FRACTION, e.g. EUR:1.50.
The FRACTION portion may extend up to 8 places.
Files containing default values for many of the options described below
are installed under $ANASTASIS_PREFIX/share/taler/config.d/.
The configuration file given with -c to Anastasis binaries
overrides these defaults.
A configuration file may include another, by using the @INLINE@ directive,
for example, in main.conf, you could write @INLINE@ sub.conf to
include the entirety of sub.conf at that point in main.conf.
.. TODO: Document ‘anastasis-config -V’ in light of ‘@INLINE@’ in taler-config(1).
