Configuration¶

Configuration options for customizing kn-sock behavior.

Configuration Files¶

YAML Configuration¶

Create config.yaml:

network:
  host: "0.0.0.0"
  port: 8080
  timeout: 30

ssl:
  cert_file: "server.crt"
  key_file: "server.key"
  ca_file: "ca.crt"

logging:
  level: "INFO"

JSON Configuration¶

Create config.json:

{
  "network": {
    "host": "0.0.0.0",
    "port": 8080,
    "timeout": 30
  },
  "ssl": {
    "cert_file": "server.crt", 
    "key_file": "server.key"
  }
}

Using Configuration¶

from kn_sock.config import load_config, get_config

# Load configuration file
load_config("config.yaml")

# Get configuration values
host = get_config("network.host", "localhost")
port = get_config("network.port", 8080)

Environment Variables¶

Override configuration with environment variables:

export KN_SOCK_HOST="127.0.0.1"
export KN_SOCK_PORT="9000"
export KN_SOCK_SSL_VERIFY="false"
