Liberator configuration reference: Introduction

The following pages define the configuration items that you can use to configure Liberator.

Because Liberator is a DataSource application, it also uses DataSource configuration. For instance, you need to configure its DataSource peer connections, any required data services, and the logging set up.

There’s a page (or sometimes more) on this site for each area of Liberator configuration (HTTP connections, HTTPS connections, object management, and so on), listing all the configuration items that are available for that area.

Mandatory items and default values

If a configuration item or an option within an item has a default value, the item/option is optional and if you don’t specify it, its default value will apply.

If the default is shown as [none], the item/option is mandatory (unless otherwise indicated) - you must specify it in your configuration. For example, the service-name and add-source-group options of the add-data-service DataSource configuration item have no default, so if you define a data service, it must at least have a name and a single add-source-group:

add-data-service
   service-name MyDataService
   add-source-group
      ...
   add-source-group
end-data-service
