Ayllu’s configuration is managed by a single TOML file which can reside in a variety of places. All components of Ayllu are guaranteed to run without any configuration. All content stored in the configuration file is considered public and appropriate for viewing by any users of the installation. The file is read by all components of Ayllu and contains a global configuration section which influences all applications as well as specific sections for different components.

All binaries accept the --config flag which if provided takes prescience over all other options. If unspecified the following locations environment variables will be checked:

• $AYLLU_CONFIG_PATH
• $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ayllu/config.toml
• $CONFIGURATION_DIRECTORY/config.toml

Finally two hard coded paths will be inspected:

• config.toml
• /etc/ayllu/config.toml
