The location of custom environments and interfaces.

The location where Badger run logs are stored. In some environments (e.g. LCLS/LCLS-II) these logs are added to the machine elog.

Archive Root​

The location where old runs are archived. Runs stored here will appear in the History Navigator panel in the GUI.

CLI​

If you would like to change some setting that you configured after badger has been run for the first time, you can do so with badger config.

To list all the configuration properties:

badger config

To set a property:

badger config KEY

Where KEY is one of the keys in the configuration property list.

GUI​

The GUI includes a configuration panel as well, which may be more straightforward to use. Note that if some of these configuration properties are missing, the GUI will not launch, and you will need to set the missing property through the CLI interface.
