Configuration file#
The configuration file controls some aspects of the behavior of Tryton.
The file uses a simple ini-file format. It consists of sections, led by a
[section]
header and followed by name = value
entries:
[database]
uri = postgresql://user:password@localhost/
path = /var/lib/trytond
For more information see ConfigParser.
The default value of any option can be changed using environment variables
with names using this syntax: TRYTOND_<SECTION>__<NAME>
.
Sections#
This section describes the different main sections that may appear in a Tryton configuration file, the purpose of each section, its possible keys, and their possible values. Some modules could request the usage of other sections for which the guideline asks them to be named like their module.
web#
Defines the behavior of the web interface.
listen#
Defines the couple of host (or IP address) and port number separated by a colon to listen on.
Default localhost:8000
Note
To listen on all IPv4 interfaces use the value 0.0.0.0:8000
and for all
IPv6 interfaces use [::]:8000
.

database#
Defines how the database is managed.
uri#
Contains the URI to connect to the SQL database. The URI follows the RFC 3986. The typical form is:
database://username:password@host:port/?param1=value1¶m2=value2
The parameters are database dependent, check the database documentation for a list of valid parameters.
Default: The value of the environment variable TRYTOND_DATABASE_URI

- Unix domain connection:
with password authentication:
postgresql://username:password
with operating system user name:
postgresql://
Please refer to psycopg2 for the complete specification of the URI.
A list of parameters supported by PostgreSQL can be found in the documentation.
Note
fallback_application_name
parameter from aforementioned documentation can
be set directly thanks to the TRYTOND_APPNAME
environment variable.
SQLite#

, the parameter mode
will be set
to memory
thus using a pure in-memory database.
The recognized query parameters can be found in SQLite’s documentation.

: SMTP with STARTTLS
smtps
: SMTP with SSL

session#
authentications#
A comma separated list of the authentication methods to try when attempting to
verify a user’s identity. Each method is tried in turn, following the order of
the list, until one succeeds. In order to allow multi-factor authentication,
individual methods can be combined together using a plus (+
) symbol.
Example:
authentications = password+sms,ldap
Each combined method can have options to skip them if they are met except for
the first method.
They are defined by appending their name to the method name after a question
mark (?
) and separated by colons (:
).
Example:
authentications = password+sms?ip_address:device_cookie
By default, Tryton only supports the password
method. This method compares
the password entered by the user against a stored hash of the user’s password.
By default, Tryton supports the ip_address
and device_cookie
options.
The ip_address
compares the client IP address with the known network list
defined in authentication_ip_network.
The device_cookie
checks the client device is a known device of the user.
Other modules can define additional authentication methods and options, please
refer to their documentation for more information.
