14 beagle-config is a command line tool designed to manipulate the Beagle
15 configuration.
16
17 The configuration is stored in a series of files usually located in the
18 ~/.beagle/config directory. The configuration is split up into sec‐
19 tions, each section being represented by 1 file.
20
21 The format used is the result of serialized objects. Manually modifying
22 the configuration files is not recommended, you should use this utility
23 instead.
24
25 Each section configures a different area of the Beagle system. Each
26 section has a number of preset section-options (commands) which you can
27 perform on it via this command-line application.
28
29 The available sections, and available options for each section, are
30 discovered at runtime. This manual does not attempt to document the
31 sections in detail. This manual demonstrates how you can retrieve a
32 list of available sections and their options.
33
34 beagle-config can be used "offline", it does not require a Beagle dae‐
35 mon to be running for most operations. If a Beagle daemon is running,
36 it will immediately be notified of any configuration changes, and your
37 new settings will come into effect almost immediately. Alternatively,
38 you can force a re-load with the --beagled-reload-config argument.
39
41 --help Print a brief copyright and usage message.
42
43 --beagled-reload-config
44 Asks the beagle daemon to reload the configuration files.
45
46 --list-sections
47 Lists all of the available sections for use as the sections
48 parameter.
49
51 Each section has its own unique set of options available. To see a list
52 of supported options for a particular section, run beagle-config sec‐
53 tion-name with no additional parameters.
54
56 Each option may take a number of parameters (or none). Please refer to
57 online documentation if you require explanations of every available
58 command.
