tracker-db.cfg (5) - Linux Manuals

NAME

tracker-db.cfg

SYNOPSIS

$HOME/.config/tracker/tracker-db.cfg

DESCRIPTION

Tracker's configuration is built on top of GSettings, part of GLib. This means that there is a proper schema for configurations and they can be viewed (normally) using the dconf-editor tool.

Tracker also allows switching from the GSettings database, used by most (cross) desktop applications, to a key/value formatted files (like Microsoft's INI format). To do this, the environment variable TRACKER_USE_CONFIG_FILES must be defined before running the application using that configuration.

So where is this configuration? Well, normally they're stored in $HOME/.config/tracker/, however, default values are not stored to config files, only different values are. This man page describes what keys and values can be used.

See EXAMPLES for a general overview.

OPTIONS

journal-chunk-size=50

Size of the journal at rotation in MB. Use -1 to disable rotating.

journal-rotate-destination=''

Where to store a journal chunk when it hits the max size.

EXAMPLES

The top level group is "General". The default configuration (if saved to tracker-db.cfg), would look like:

    [General]
    journal-chunk-size=50;
    journal-rotate-destination='';
