Configuration

A few global options are available. Bamboost can be configured using the configuration file at ~/.config/bamboost/config.toml.

[options]
# uncomment to disable mpi support
mpi = true
 
# default column to sort dataframes by
sort_table_key = 'time_stamp'
sort_table_order = 'desc'  # or 'asc'
 
# sync database tables with sqlite database on the fly
sync_tables = true
 
[index]
# the list of paths to search for databases
paths = [
    '/home/florez/work/',
    '/home/florez/journal/',
]

Options

• mpi: this switch disables the import of mpi4py and thus disables all mpi functionality. This is useful if you never use mpi anyway as most of the import time of bamboost is due to the import of MPI.

• sort_table_key: any dataframe will be sorted by this key. This should be a key that exists in all your databases. E.g. the metadata set by bamboost. time_stamp, id, ...
• sort_table_order: asc (ascending) or desc (descending)

Index

• paths: A list of paths in which to seearch for databases. The list will be searched from top to bottom. The last resort is always the users home directory.
