v2 v3 1 1 = The Trac Configuration File = 2 [[TracGuideToc]] 2 3 3 [[TracGuideToc]] 4 Trac configuration is done by editing the '''`trac.ini`''' config file, located in `<projectenv>/conf/trac.ini`. Changes to the configuration are usually reflected immediately, though changes to the `[components]` or `[logging]` sections will require restarting the web server. You may also need to restart the web server after creating a global configuration file when none was previously present. 5 6 The `trac.ini` configuration file should be writable by the web server, as Trac currently relies on the possibility to trigger a complete environment reload to flush its caches. 4 7 5 8 == Global Configuration == 6 9 7 In versions prior to 0.11, the global configuration was by default located in `$prefix/share/trac/conf/trac.ini` or sometimes /etc/trac/trac.ini depending on the distribution. If you're upgrading, you may want to specify that file to inherit from.10 In versions prior to 0.11, the global configuration was by default located in `$prefix/share/trac/conf/trac.ini` or /etc/trac/trac.ini, depending on the distribution. If you're upgrading, you may want to specify that file to inherit from. Literally, when you're upgrading to 0.11, you have to add an `[inherit]` section to your project's `trac.ini` file. Additionally, you have to move your customized templates and common images from `$prefix/share/trac/...` to the new location. 8 11 9 12 Global options will be merged with the environment-specific options, where local options override global options. The options file is specified as follows: 10 13 {{{ 11 14 [inherit] 12 file = / usr/share/trac/conf/trac.ini15 file = /path/to/global/trac.ini 13 16 }}} 17 Multiple files can be specified using a comma-separated list. 14 18 15 Note that you can also specify a global option file when creating a new project, by adding the option 16 `--inherit=/path/to/global/options` to [TracAdmin trac-admin]'s `initenv` command. 17 If you would not do this but nevertheless intend to use a global option file with your new environment, 18 you would have to go through the newly generated conf/trac.ini file and delete the entries that would 19 otherwise override those set in the global file. 19 Note that you can also specify a global option file when creating a new project, by adding the option `--inherit=/path/to/global/trac.ini` to [TracAdmin#initenv trac-admin]'s `initenv` command. If you do not do this but nevertheless intend to use a global option file with your new environment, you will have to go through the newly generated `conf/trac.ini` file and delete the entries that will otherwise override those set in the global file. 20 20 21 There are two more entries in the [[#inherit-section| [inherit] ]] section, `templates_dir` for sharing global templates and `plugins_dir`, for sharing plugins. Those entries can themselves be specified in the shared configuration file, and in fact, configuration files can even be chained if you specify another `[inherit] file` there. 21 22 22 == Reference ==23 == Reference for settings 23 24 24 25 This is a brief reference of available configuration options. 25 26 26 [[TracIni ()]]27 [[TracIni]] 27 28 29 == Reference for special sections 30 [[PageOutline(3,,inline)]] 28 31 29 == [components]== #components-section32 === [components] === #components-section 30 33 This section is used to enable or disable components provided by plugins, as well as by Trac itself. The component to enable/disable is specified via the name of the option. Whether its enabled is determined by the option value; setting the value to `enabled` or `on` will enable the component, any other value (typically `disabled` or `off`) will disable the component. 31 34 … … 45 48 See also: TracPlugins 46 49 47 == [ticket-custom] == #ticket-custom-section 48 49 In this section, you can define additional fields for tickets. See TracTicketsCustomFields for more details. 50 51 == [ticket-workflow] == #ticket-workflow-section 52 ''(since 0.11)'' 53 54 The workflow for tickets is controlled by plugins. 55 By default, there's only a `ConfigurableTicketWorkflow` component in charge. 56 That component allows the workflow to be configured via this section in the trac.ini file. 57 See TracWorkflow for more details. 58 59 == [milestone-groups] == #milestone-groups-section 50 === [milestone-groups] === #milestone-groups-section 60 51 ''(since 0.11)'' 61 52 … … 65 56 that will be shown in different colors in the milestone progress bar. 66 57 67 Example configuration ( which is also the default):58 Example configuration (the default only has closed and active): 68 59 {{{ 69 60 closed = closed 70 closed.order = 0 #
