common.ini#

The common.ini config file, located at /etc/squirro/common.ini configures common settings for all Squirro services.

For changes in this config file to be considered, all Squirro services must be restarted.

This setting is done in the [logger_root] section.

Key

Usage

Set the log level that is written to the log files. Allowed values: DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR.

INFO

Pipeline#

Some pipeline settings are configured in the common.ini file. Others can be set in the ingester.ini file.

The following settings are done in the [pipeline] section.

Key

Usage

Default

step_plumber_timeout_secs

The maximum duration a request from the ingester service to the plumber service (ingester.pipelet_step --> plumber) can take.

When changing this timeout, the nginx configuration also needs to be updated, as there is a separate timeout at play there. For the timeout to take full effect, also edit /etc/nginx/conf.d/plumber-fastcgi.inc and adjust the fastcgi_read_timeout value. Reload nginx after applying this change with sudo systemctl reload nginx.

Default

default_abstract_size

The default length of returned abstract.
