Configuration¶
CinCan reads configuration from the ~/.cincan/config.json
file.
Version checks of tools¶
By default, every time a tool is used, its version status is shown. Version check will compare the local version of a tool with the version in Docker Hub and with the version in the tool’s upstream repository in case the newer version has not ended up into our Docker Hub yet. This feature is available only for those CinCan tools which are configured correctly.
If you want to disable it, modify/add file ~/.cincan/config.json
to contain attribute show_updates
and set it as false
.
Example file could look like:
{
"show_updates": false
}
Specify tag for tools¶
When CinCan pulls a dockerized tool, it reads the image tag name from the stable_tag
attribute which is “latest” by default. If CinCan can not pull image by stable_tag
, it reads development tag from the dev_tag
attribute which is “dev” by default.
An example file with default values:
{
"stable_tag": "stable",
"dev_tag": "dev"
}
Tip: To set the tag runtime, see Tool[:tag].
