Reopening of #596.
This finally approaches parts of #92 (now #629): Configuration documentation, validation and proper defaults.
Commented config file
The configuration file is now fully commented out (preview). Each property is commented and can be uncommented and changed if the user does not want the default to apply. The configuration file is now closer to unix-like configuration files. Reviews of the comments (both content and layout) are much appreciated.
Enforced rules and defaults
Secondly, the configuration defaults and rules are now stored in a
config_defaults.lua
file, and Kong will stop the execution of a comment is the file contains invalid properties (wrong type, incorrect value, etc...)This is what it looks like if a string is given in place of a port number for
admin_api_port
:Again, reviews of both rules and defaults are much appreciated.
