# fedmsg-config(1)

query or print the parsed fedmsg configuration

## NAME

fedmsg-config - query or print the parsed fedmsg configuration

## SYNOPSIS

**fedmsg-config** \[**--query** *CONFIG\_KEY*\] \[**--config-filename** *CONFIG\_FILENAME*\] \[**--disable-defaults**\]

**fedmsg-config** \[**-h**\|**--help**\]

## DESCRIPTION

Query or print the parsed fedmsg-config.

**fedmsg-config** is a simple utility that prints out the contents of the fully parsed fedmsg config as a JSON dictionary. It also allows the user to query a specific key of the config.

## QUERY OPERATIONS

The tool allows you to query a specific configuration key with the **--query** *CONFIG\_KEY* option.

In query mode, the configuration key has the following syntax: **fedmsg-config --query** *foo.bar.baz* prints the value of *config\["foo"\]\["bar"\]\["baz"\]* to the standard output.

If the configuration value is an atomic value, it is printed directly. If the value is a list, each item of that list gets printed line by line. Else, the value is printed as a JSON dictionary.

## OPTIONS

- **-h**, **--help**

  Print an help message and exit

- **--query** CONFIG\_KEY

  Dump a given key from the parsed config instead of dumping all of it.

- **--config-filename** CONFIG\_FILENAME

  Config file to use.

- **--disable-defaults**

  Disable the configuration defaults.
