.TH BITCOIN.CONF "5" "January 2011" "bitcoin.conf 3.19"
|
||
|
|
.SH NAME
|
||
|
|
bitcoin.conf \- bitcoin configuration file
|
||
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
All command-line options (except for '-datadir' and '-conf') may be specified in a configuration file, and all configuration file options may also be specified on the command line. Command-line options override values set in the configuration file.
|
||
|
|
.TP
|
||
|
|
The configuration file is a list of 'setting=value' pairs, one per line, with optional comments starting with the '#' character.
|
||
|
|
.TP
|
||
|
|
The configuration file is not automatically created; you can create it using your favorite plain-text editor. By default, bitcoind(1) will look for a file named bitcoin.conf(5) in the bitcoin data directory, but both the data directory and the configuration file path may be changed using the '-datadir' and '-conf' command-line arguments.
