# Config Files
## Boot options
One use of a config file is to set boot flags to execute without having to state them when launching the program.
- This is set under the `[flags]` section.
- These options are generally the same as the long names as other flags (ex: `case_sensitive = true`).
- Note that if a flag and an option conflict, the flag has higher precedence (ex: if the `-c` and `temperature_type = kelvin` both exist, the Celsius temperature type is ultimately chosen).
- For temperature type, use `temperature_type = "kelvin|k|celsius|c|fahrenheit|f"`.
- For default widgets, use `default_widget = "cpu_default|memory_default|disk_default|temperature_default|network_default|process_default"`.
## Colours
Another use is to set colours, under the `[colors]`. The following labels are customizable with strings that are hex colours, RGB colours, or specific named colours.
Supported named colours are one of the following: `Reset, Black, Red, Green, Yellow, Blue, Magenta, Cyan, Gray, DarkGray, LightRed, LightGreen, LightYellow, LightBlue, LightMagenta, LightCyan, White`
| Labels | Details | Example |
| ------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| Table header colours | Colour of table headers | `table_header_color="256, 256, 256"` |
| CPU colour per core | Colour of each core. Read in order. | `cpu_core_colors=["#ffffff", "blue", "122, 122, 122"]` |
| Average CPU colour | The average CPU color | `avg_cpu_color="Red"` |
| RAM | The colour RAM will use | `ram_color="#ffffff"` |
| SWAP | The colour SWAP will use | `swap_color="#111111"` |
| RX | The colour rx will use | `rx_color="#ffffff"` |
| TX | The colour tx will use | `tx_color="#111111"` |
| Widget title colour | The colour of the label each widget has | `widget_title_color="#ffffff"` |
| Border colour | The colour of the border of unselected widgets | `border_color="#ffffff"` |
| Selected border colour | The colour of the border of selected widgets | `highlighted_border_color="#ffffff"` |
| Text colour | The colour of most text | `text_color="#ffffff"` |
| Graph colour | The colour of the lines and text of the graph | `graph_color="#ffffff"` |
| Cursor colour | The cursor's colour | `cursor_color="#ffffff"` |
| Selected text colour | The colour of text that is selected | `scroll_entry_text_color="#282828"` |
| Selected text background colour | The background colour of text that is selected | `scroll_entry_bg_color="#458588"` |
Note some colours may not be compatible with the terminal you are using. For example, macOS's default Terminal does not play nice with many colours.
## Default config locations
bottom will check specific locations by default for a config file. If no file is found, it will be created.
- For Unix-based systems: `$HOME/.config/bottom/bottom.toml`.
- For Windows: `{FOLDERID_RoamingAppData}\bottom\bottom.toml` (for example, `C:\Users\Clement\AppData\Roaming\bottom\bottom.toml`).
