# Pinakes Configuration Example
# Copy this file to pinakes.toml and adjust values as needed.
# Most settings have sensible defaults and can be omitted.

## Storage Backend Configuration
[storage]
# Storage backend: "sqlite" or "postgres"
# SQLite is recommended for single-user or small deployments (< 10k items)
# PostgreSQL is recommended for larger libraries or multi-user setups
backend = "sqlite"

[storage.sqlite]
# Path to the SQLite database file (relative to data directory or absolute)
# Default: <data_dir>/pinakes.db

# port = 5432
# database = "pinakes"
# username = "pinakes"

# as needed.
