Each configuration file for Djinn CI uses its own structured configuration language. This provides a quick overview of that language, and the common parameters between files.
The syntax of the configuration files is detailed below using Extended Backus-Naur Form,
digit = "0" ... "9" .
letter = "a" ... "z" | "A" ... "Z" | "_" | unicode_letter .
identifier = letter { letter | digit } .
float_literal = digit "." { digit } .
int_literal = { digit } .
number_literal = int_literal | float_literal .
duration_unit = "s" | "m" | "h" .
duration_literal = number_literal { number_literal | duration_unit } .
size_unit = "B" | "KB" | "MB" | "GB" | "TB" .
size_literal = int_literal size_unit .
string_literal = `"` { letter } `"` .
bool_literal = "true" | "false" .
literal = bool_literal | string_literal | number_literal | duration_literal | size_literal .
block = "{" [ parameter ";" ] "}" .
array = "[" [ operand "," ] "]" .
operand = literal | array | block .
parameter = identifier [ identifier ] operand .
file = { parameter ";" } .
All of the configuration files used, with the exception of driver.conf, share the following configuration parameters,
| NAME | TYPE | DESCRIPTION |
|---|---|---|
|
| The file to which the PID should be written when the process starts. |
|
| Configure logging for the process. The
|
|
| The file or files to include in the configuration file. |
The include keyword can be used to include other configuration files. This can be useful when multiple configuration file share the same configuration parameters, such as SMTP connections, for example,
include "/etc/djinn/smtp.cfg"
this can also be given an array of paths to include,
include [
"/etc/djinn/crypto.cfg",
"/etc/djinn/smtp.cfg",
]
Environment variables can be accessed in configuration files by wrapping the variable name with ${}. For example,
smtp {
username "${SMTP_USERNAME}"
}
The above configuration would replace ${SMTP_USERNAME} with the value of the SMTP_USERNAME environment variable. If no variable is set, then the value would be an empty string.
