Configuration

  less than a minute  

Lula allows the use and specification of a config file in the following ways:

  • Checking current working directory for a lula-config.yaml file
  • Specification with environment variable LULA_CONFIG=<path>

Environment Variables can be used to specify configuration values through use of LULA_<VAR> -> Example: LULA_TARGET=il5

Identification

If identified, Lula will log which configuration file is used to stdout:

Using config file /home/dev/work/lula/lula-config.yaml

Precedence

The precedence for configuring settings, such as target, follows this hierarchy:

Command Line Flag > Environment Variable > Configuration File

  1. Command Line Flag:
    When a setting like target is specified using a command line flag, this value takes the highest precedence, overriding any environment variable or configuration file settings.

  2. Environment Variable:
    If the setting is not provided via a command line flag, an environment variable (e.g., export LULA_TARGET=il5) will take precedence over the configuration file.

  3. Configuration File:
    In the absence of both a command line flag and environment variable, the value specified in the configuration file will be used. This will override system defaults.

Support

Modification of command variables can be set in the configuration file:

lula-config.yaml

log_level: debug
target: il4
summary: true
