Glooctl Config File

Config File

When glooctl is invoked, it will attempt to read a configuration yaml file located at $HOME/.gloo/glooctl-config.yaml. The location of this file can be overridden by setting the --config value (aliased to -f) when invoking glooctl. If the file does not exist, glooctl will attempt to write it.

The available top-level values to set are:

• disableUsageReporting - bool; use this to disable the reporting of anonymous usage statistics. More information about this can be found on the corresponding docs page here.

We send a signature along with these reports to help deduplicate them. This signature is just a random UUID and contains no personally-identifying information. Gloo Edge keeps it in-memory in the gloo pod, and glooctl will persist it on-disk at ~/.soloio/signature. These signatures can be destroyed at any time with no negative consequences. These signatures will not be written or recorded if usage reporting is disabled as described above.
