Configuration

Tendermint Core can be configured via a TOML file in $TMHOME/config/config.toml. Some of these parameters can be overridden by command-line flags. For most users, the options in the ##### main base configuration options ##### are intended to be modified while config options further below are intended for advance power users.

Options

The default configuration file create by tendermint init has all the parameters set with their default values. It will look something like the file below, however, double check by inspecting the config.toml created with your version of tendermint installed:

# This is a TOML config file.
# For more information, see https://github.com/toml-lang/toml

##### main base config options #####

# TCP or UNIX socket address of the ABCI application,
# or the name of an ABCI application compiled in with the Tendermint binary

# A custom human readable name for this node

# If this node is many blocks behind the tip of the chain, FastSync
# allows them to catchup quickly by downloading blocks in parallel
# and verifying their commits
