[tahoe-dev] src to generate tahoe.cfg

[Callme Whatiwant]

It looks like the code lives here: ./src/allmydata/scripts/create_node.py

There are various string templates there which are used to create an
initial config file.

I'm curious why you choose to automatically modify the config file?  I'm
not sure about the core developers, but I prefer to keep a clean separation
between files which are only read by lafs and only edited by humans versus
files which are read/written by lafs but not edited by humans (except for
unusual situations).

Could the feature you want to implement be a modification of the main tahoe
program to implement some dynamic feature?


Regards,
Nathan

ps: I discovered the file above with this (on a linux system inside the
repository checkout directory):

$ find ./src/ -type f -name '*.py' | xargs grep 'tahoe.cfg'
