Monero Configuration File
Applicability
By default Monero does not read configuration file.
To use config file add --config-file
option:
./monerod --config-file=/etc/monero.conf
The --config-file
option is available for:
monerod
monero-wallet-cli
monero-wallet-rpc
monero-gen-trusted-multisig
Syntax
option-name=value
valueless-option-name=1
for options that don't expect value# I am a comment
- whitespace is ignored
Reference
All command line options work as configuration file options. See monerod reference.
Skip the --
from --option-name
.
Example:
./monerod --log-level=4 --stagenet
translates to:
log-level=4
stagenet=1 # use value "1" for
Example
# /etc/monero.conf
# Data directory (blockchain db and indices)
data-dir=/home/monero/.monero
# Log file
log-file=/var/log/monero/monero.log

# Emergency checkpoints set by MoneroPulse operators will be enforced to workaround potential consensus bugs
# Check https://monerodocs.org/infrastructure/monero-pulse/ for explanation and trade-offs

out-peers=64 # This will enable much faster sync and tx awareness; the default 8 is suboptimal nowadays
in-peers=1024 # The default is unlimited; we prefer to put a cap on this
limit-rate-up=1048576 # 1048576 kB/s == 1GB/s; a raise from default 2048 kB/s; contribute more to p2p network
limit-rate-down=1048576 # 1048576 kB/s == 1GB/s; a raise from default 8192 kB/s; allow for faster initial sync
