Config File
For persistent configuration, and for certain configuration options, bottom supports config files.
Default Config File
If no config file argument is given, it will automatically look for a config file at these locations:
| OS | Default Config Location |
|---|---|
| macOS | $HOME/Library/Application Support/bottom/bottom.toml~/.config/bottom/bottom.toml $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/bottom/bottom.toml |
| Linux | ~/.config/bottom/bottom.toml $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/bottom/bottom.toml |
| Windows | C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming\bottom\bottom.toml |
If the config file doesn't exist at the path, bottom will automatically try to create a new config file at the location with default values.
JSON Schema
The configuration file also has JSON Schema support to make it easier to manage, if your IDE/editor supports it.
