Configuration

Tigris CLI utility reads configuration both from config files and environment variables.

Configuration files​

Utility loads configuration from the following locations in the given order:

  1. /etc/tigris/tigris.yaml
  2. $HOME/.tigris/tigris.yaml
  3. ./config/tigris.yaml
  4. ./tigris.yaml

Example configuration file​

Here is an example of tigris.yaml:

url: tigris.example.com:8081
project: "your_tigris_project"
client_id: "your_client_id"
client_secret: "your_client_secret"
timeout: 2s

Environment variables​

Environment variables should have prefix TIGRIS_ followed by the configuration variable name. Nested variables delimited by underscore, meaning that variable which in the config file looks like the following:

one:
  two: value

Can be set like:

TIGRIS_ONE_TWO=value

by the environment variable.

Environment variables have precedence over configuration files.

Example environment configuration​

export TIGRIS_URI="tigris.example.com:8081"
export TIGRIS_PROJECT="your_tigris_project"
export TIGRIS_CLIENT_ID="your_client_id"
export TIGRIS_CLIENT_SECRET="your_client_secret"
