# CONFIGURATION GUIDE

# FLAGS

## `--debug`, `-d`

Overrides `log_level`.

Enables debug mode. Show additional logs.

In the event a problem, debug mode provides context for common resources, such as package configurations.

## `--quiet`, `-q`

Overrides `log_level`.

Enables quiet mode. Elide most console logs.

In the event of a problem, remove this option.

## `--help`, `-h`

Show usage menu.

## `--version`, `-V`

Show version banner.

## `-- [<ROCKLET OPTIONS>]`

Forward `<ROCKLET OPTIONS>` from `rockhopper` to individual [rocklet](ROCKLETS.md) containers.

See `rockhopper -h` for more detail.

# TOML

rockhopper looks for a configuration file `rockhopper.toml` in the current working directory.

## `log_level`

Default: `info`

Also accepts `quiet` (less logs) or `debug` (more logs).

Example:

```toml
log_level = "debug"
```

## `docker_args`

Default: (empty)

Supply additional CLI arguments to `docker run`... commands.

Example:

```toml
docker_args = ["--privilieged"]
```

## `rocklet`

Required fields vary by distribution.

Package attribute table.

Example:

```toml
[rocklet]
name = "raygun"
version = "1.2.3"
```

### `name`

Nonblank.

Commonly required across package managers.

Example:

```toml
[rocklet]
name = "raygun"
```

### `version`

Commonly required across package managers.

Example:

```toml
[rocklet]
name = "raygun"
version = "1.2.3"
```

### `rev`

Often required by package managers.

Release increment, relative to an upstream `version`.

Example:

```toml
[rocklet]
name = "raygun"
version = "1.2.3"
rev = "81"
```

### `maintainer`

Often required by package managers.

Contact information for developer managing packages.

Format: RFC822.

Example:

```toml
[rocklet]
name = "raygun"
maintainer = "Marvin the Martian <marvin@mars.test>"
```

### `summary`

Often required by package managers.

A concise description of the package.

summary = "Space modulator"
```

### `description`

Often required by package managers.

A brief description of the package.

Example:

```toml
[rocklet]
name = "raygun"
description = "Illudium Q-36 explosive space modulator"
```

### `copyright`

Generally recommended.

A Copyright identifier.

Example:

```toml
[rocklet]
name = "raygun"
copyright = "Copyright (C) 1948 Marvin the Martian"
```

### `license`

```

Operating systems often have separate conventions to manage longer license documentation.

```

### `mount_path`

Default: `/mnt/rockhopper`

Default: `<container-home>/templates`

Relative to mount path.

Example:

#### Warning

Jinja templated fields treat line feeds (`\n`) as literals.

```

Recommended for binary based package builds.

#### Warning

Some distros have limited support for mapping files with duplicate basenames (e.g., `usr/share/app/LICENSE` vs. `usr/share/app/data/LICENSE`).

When in doubt, delect unique basenames for all source media file paths.
