## Configuration Settings Order
The configuration settings in sgminer are applied in this order:
```
Command Line > Config File Globals > Default Profile > Pool's Profile > Pool-Specific Settings
```
[Top](#configuration-and-command-line-options)
## Globals and the Default Profile
The default profile contains the settings that are to be used as defaults throughout sgminer. Typically, unless you specify `default-profile`, those settings will be read from the global level of the config file or use sgminer's core defaults if nothing is at the global level. The pool or profile level settings will override the default profile's settings.
The example below has `algorithm` set at the global level. Anytime a pool or profile doesn't specify `algorithm`, "darkcoin-mod" will be used.
```
{
"pools": [...],
"algorithm":"darkcoin-mod",
"intensity":"19",
...
```
In the example below, `algorithm` is not specified at the global level and no profile is used as `default-profile`. This means that the default profile's `algorithm` will be set to sgminer's core default: "scrypt".
```
{
"pools": [
{
"url":"poolA:8334",
...
"profile":"A"
},
{
"url":"poolB:8334",
...
}
],
"profiles":[
{
"name":"A",
"algorithm":"darkcoin-mod"
}
],
"intensity":"19"
}
```
When using the first pool, Profile A will be applied, so `algorithm` will be set to "darkcoin-mod". When using the second pool, the default profile is applied, and `algorithm` will be set to "scrypt". `intensity`, being set at the global level, will be the default profile's `intensity` value. `intensity` will be set to "19" for both pools, because it is never specified in the pool or profile settings.
When `default-profile` is specified, any settings contained in that profile will override globals. For example:
```
{
"pools": [
{
"url":"poolA:8334",
...
"profile":"A"
},
{
"url":"poolB:8334",
...
}
],
"profiles":[
{
"name":"A",
"algorithm":"darkcoin-mod"
},
{
"name":"B",
"algorithm":"ckolivas"
}
],
"default-profile":"B",
"algorithm":"marucoin-mod",
"intensity":"19"
}
```
Profile B will be used to set the default profile's settings, which means `algorithm` will be set to "ckolivas" and the global value of "marucoin-mod" will be discarded. The first pool will use Profile A's "darkcoin-mod" and the second pool will use the default profile's "ckolivas".
See the [configuration settings order](#configuration-settings-order) for more information about the order in which settings are applied.
[Top](#configuration-and-command-line-options)
## Working with Profiles and Pool Specific Settings
Profiles have been added assist in specifying different GPU and/or algorithm settings that could be (re-)used by one or more pools. Pool-specific settings will override profile settings, and profile settings will override the default profile/globals.
See the [configuration settings order](#configuration-settings-order) for more information about the order in which settings are applied.
```
{
"pools": [
{
"url":"poolA:8334",
...
"profile":"A"
},
{
"url":"poolB:8334",
...
"profile":"A",
"gpu-engine":"1000"
},
{
"url":"poolC:8334",
...
"intensity":"13"
}
],
"profiles":[
{
"name":"A",
"algorithm":"darkcoin-mod",
"gpu-engine":"1050"
},
{
"name":"B",
"algorithm":"ckolivas"
}
],
"default-profile":"B",
"intensity":"19",
"gpu-engine":"1100"
}
```
In the example above, when using the second pool, Profile A is applied, which sets the `algorithm` to "darkcoin-mod", but since a `gpu-engine` of "1000" is specified in the pool, the value of "1050" is discarded.
A similar situation occurs in the third pool. No profile is specified so the default `algorithm` "ckolivas" is set along with the default `gpu-engine` of "1100". Because `intensity` is set to "13" in the pool, the default profile's value of "19" is discarded.
The end result of the above would look like this:
```
{
"pools": [
{
"url":"poolA:8334",
...
"algorithm":"darkcoin-mod",
"intensity":"19",
"gpu-engine":"1050"
},
{
"url":"poolB:8334",
...
"algorithm":"darkcoin-mod",
"intensity":"19",
"gpu-engine":"1000"
},
{
"url":"poolC:8334",
...
"algorithm":"ckolivas"
"intensity":"13"
"gpu-engine":"1100"
}
]
}
```

## Include and Includes
`include` and `includes` are special keywords only available in the configuration file. You can include json-formatted files at any level of the configuration parsing. The values read in the included
files are applied to the current object being parsed.
`include` is used to include one single file. If you want to include multiple files, use `includes`, which is an array of filenames.
As with config files, these files can be web URLs pointing to remote files.
```
/etc/pool.ip.credentials:
{
"user":"user",
"pass":"x"
}
sgminer.conf:
...
"pools":[
{
"url":"stratum+tcp://pool.ip:8334",
"include":"/etc/pool.ip.credentials"
}
],
...
```
In the example above, the parser will include the contents of the file `/etc/pool.ip.credentials` directly where it was called from. This will produce the following result:
```
sgminer.conf:
...
"pools":[
{
"url":"stratum+tcp://pool.ip:8334",
"user":"user",
"pass":"x"
}
],
...
```
The example below shows how you could breakdown your config across multiple smaller files:
```
sgminer.conf:
"includes":[
"/etc/pools.conf",
"/etc/profiles.conf",
"/etc/gpus.conf"
],
...
```
There is no limit as to how includes can be used as long as they follow proper json syntax.

### config
Load a JSON-formatted configuration file. See `example.conf` for an example configuration file.
The filename can also be a web or ftp url for remote configuration files. The file will be downloaded locally before being loaded. **Note:** If a file by the same name exists, it will be overwritten. If you modify and save your configuration, the changes will only be made locally and future downloads will overwrite your changes. **Also note** that the remote configuration files are only available with `libcurl`.
Note that the configuration file's settings will override any settings passed via command line. For more information, see [Configuration Settings Order](#configuration-settings-order).

### api-description
Description placed in the API status header.
*Available*: Global
*Config File Syntax:* `"api-description":"<value>"`
*Command Line Syntax:* `--api-description "<value>"`
*Argument:* `string`
*Default:* `sgminer version`
[Top](#configuration-and-command-line-options) :: [Config-file and CLI options](#config-file-and-cli-options) :: [API Options](#api-options)
### api-groups
Sets API groups which restrict group members to only a certain set of commands. The list of groups is comma(,) delimited and each entry has its parameters colon(:) delimited. The first parameter of an entry is always the Group Identifier, which consists of one letter. When defining a group, you can use the asterisk (*) to refer to all non-priviledged functions.
Two groups are pre-defined and may not be used with this option:
* `R` Access to all non-priviledged functions
* `W` Access to all priviledged and non-priviledged functions
Group Members are specified in [api-allow](#api-allow) where they are associated with a group by their IP address.
*Available*: Global
*Config File Syntax:* `"api-groups":"<value>"`
*Command Line Syntax:* `--api-groups "<value>"`
*Argument:* `comma (,) delimited list` Format: `<Group ID>:<command>:<command>[:*][:...][,...]`
*Default:* `R` Access to all non-priviledged functions `W` Access to all functions
*Example:*
```
"api-groups":"A:addpool:*,B:addpool:removepool:switchpool:gpurestart:gpuenable:gpudisable:save:quit",
"api-allow":"A:192.168.0.10,B:127.0.0.1"
```
The above example grants users of group A access to the addpool function as well as all non-priviledged functions.
Group B users only have access to the following functions: addpool, removepool, switchpool, gpurestart, gpuenable, gpudisable, save, quit.

### device
Select devices to use.
**Note:** if you assign per-profile or per-pool devices to be turned on or off, it is recommended to specify `"device":"*"` on the other pools or profiles that should use all devices.
*Available*: Global, Pool, Profile
*Config File Syntax:* `"device":"<value>"`
*Command Line Syntax:* `--device "<value>"` `-d "<value>"` `--pool-device "<value>"` `--profile-device "<value>"`
*Argument:* `one value, range and/or a comma (,) separated list with a combination of both` To enable all devices use the asterisk (*) or the word "all".
*Default:* None (all devices enabled)
*Example:*
```
{
"pools":[
{
"url":"stratum+tcp://pool.ip:8334",
"user":"user",
"pass":"x"
},
{
"url":"stratum+tcp://pool2.ip:3333",
"user":"user",
"pass":"x",
"profile":"x11"
}
],
"profiles":[
{
"name":"x11",
"algorithm":"darkcoin-mod",
"devices":"*"
}
],
...
"algorithm":"ckolivas",
"device":"0,2-5"
...
}
```
The above would start mining `scrypt` on `pool.ip` with devices `0, 2, 3, 4, 5`. Upon switching to `pool2.ip`, all devices would be enabled to mine `x11`.
