Configuration

PolyChron can be configured through an optional yaml file, stored in an appropriate location for your operating system.

  • Linux: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/polychron/config.yaml
    • Or $HOME/.config/polychron/config.yaml if XDG_CONFIG_HOME is not set
  • Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%/polychron/config.yaml

For example:

projects_directory: $HOME/Documents/polychron/projects
verbose: false
geometry: "1920x1080"

The following configuration options are available:

Name Type Description
projects_directory string The location of the polychron projects directory on disk, which defaults to ~/Documents/polychron/projects
verbose bool If verbose output should be printed by polychron
geometry string The initial window geometry for the main polychron window, in the form <width>x<height>
