The options shown below also contain the default values.
If you would like to alter any of these then please add your config option to `config.php`.
LibreNMS configuration is a set of key values.
# Directories
The config is stored in two places:
Database: This applies to all pollers and can be set with either `lnms config:set` or in the Web UI. Database config takes precedence over config.php.
config.php: This applies to the local poller only. Configs set here will be disabled in the Web UI to prevent unexpected behaviour.
```php
$config['install_dir'] = "/opt/librenms";
The LibreNMS uses dot notation for config items:
| Database | config.php |
| -------- | ---------- |
| `snmp.community` | `$config['snmp']['community']` |
| `snmp.community.+` | `$config['snmp']['community'][]` |
| `snmp.v3.0.authalgo` | `$config['snmp']['v3'][0]['authalgo']` |
> The documentation has not been updated to reflect using `lnms config:set` to set config items, but it will work for all settings. Not all settings have been defined in LibreNMS, but they can still be set with the `--ignore-checks` option. Without that option input is checked for correctness, that does not mean it is not possible to set bad values. Please report missing settings.
# CLI
`lnms config:get` will fetch the current config settings (composite of database, config.php, and defaults).
`lnms config:set` will set the config setting in the database. Calling `lnms config:set` on a setting with no value will reset it to the default value.
If you set up bash completion, you can use tab completion to find config settings.
## Examples
```bash
lnms config:get snmp.community
array (
0 => 'public',
)
lnms config:set snmp.community.+ testing
lnms config:get snmp.community
array (
0 => 'public',
1 => 'testing',
)
lnms config:set snmp.community.0 private
lnms config:get snmp.community
array (
0 => 'private',
1 => 'testing',
)
lnms config:set snmp.community test
Invalid format
lnms config:set snmp.community '["test", "othercommunity"]'
lnms config:get snmp.community
array (
0 => 'test',
1 => 'othercommunity',
)
lnms config:set snmp.community
Reset snmp.community to the default? (yes/no) [no]:
> yes
lnms config:get snmp.community --json
["public"]
```
Set the installation directory (defaults to /opt/librenms), if you
clone the GitHub branch to another location ensure you alter this.
# Directories
```php
$config['temp_dir'] = "/tmp";
