+<h1>reclass configuration file<a class="headerlink" href="#reclass-configuration-file" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
+<p><strong>reclass</strong> can read some of its configuration from a file. The file is
+a YAML-file and simply defines key-value pairs.</p>
+<p>The configuration file can be used to set defaults for all the options that
+are otherwise configurable via the command-line interface, so please use the
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--help</span></tt> output of <strong>reclass</strong> (or the <a class="reference internal" href="manpage.html"><em>manual page</em></a>) for
+reference. The command-line option <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--nodes-uri</span></tt> corresponds to the key
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">nodes_uri</span></tt> in the configuration file. For example:</p>
+<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre>storage_type: yaml_fs
+pretty_print: True
+output: json
+inventory_base_uri: /etc/reclass
+nodes_uri: ../nodes
+</pre></div>
+</div>
+<p><strong>reclass</strong> first looks in the current directory for the file called
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">reclass-config.yml</span></tt> (see <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">reclass/defaults.py</span></tt>) and if no such file is
+found, it looks in <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$HOME</span></tt>, then in <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">/etc/reclass</span></tt>, and then &#8220;next to&#8221; the
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">reclass</span></tt> script itself, i.e. if the script is symlinked to
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">/srv/provisioning/reclass</span></tt>, then the the script will try to access
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">/srv/provisioning/reclass-config.yml</span></tt>.</p>
+<p>Note that <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">yaml_fs</span></tt> is currently the only supported <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">storage_type</span></tt>, and
+it&#8217;s the default if you don&#8217;t set it.</p>
+<p>Adapters may implement their own lookup logic, of course, so make sure to read
+their documentation (for <a class="reference internal" href="salt.html"><em>Salt</em></a>, for <a class="reference internal" href="ansible.html"><em>Ansible</em></a>, and
+for <a class="reference internal" href="puppet.html"><em>Puppet</em></a>).</p>
