Configuration

vey-keyless uses YAML for configuration.

The main configuration file is specified with the -c command-line option. If a directory is set, the main configuration file is loaded automatically from it based on the executable binary name. Its top-level keys are listed below.

At a high level, vey-keyless is organized around a few main object types:

• server accepts incoming keyless protocol requests

• store defines where private keys are loaded from

• backend defines how key operations are executed

Process-level settings such as runtime, worker, log, and stat control how the daemon runs and how it reports operational state.

Key	Type	Reload	Description
runtime	Map	no	Runtime configuration, see Runtime
worker	Map [2]	no	Starts unaided worker runtimes if present
log	Map	no	Logging configuration, see Log
stat	Map	no	Metrics configuration, see Stat
controller	Seq	no	Controller configuration
pre_register	Map	no	Pre-registration configuration
server	Mix [1]	yes	Server configuration, see server
store	Mix [1]	yes	Private-key store configuration, see Store
backend	Mix [1]	yes	Backend configuration, see backend

Read the object-family sections listed in the hidden toctree below when you need the detailed fields and behavior for each component type.
