Path to a config directory to pull *.conf files from. This file set is sorted, to provide a predictable parse order if individual options are over-ridden. The set is parsed after the file(s) specified via previous --config-file, arguments hence over-ridden options in the directory take precedence. This means that configuration from files in a specified config-dir will always take precedence over configuration from files specified by --config-file, regardless to argument order.
Path to a config file to use. Multiple config files can be specified by using this flag multiple times, for example, --config-file <file1> --config-file <file2>. Values in latter files take precedence.
The name of logging configuration file. It does not disable existing loggers, but just appends specified logging configuration to any other existing logging options. Please see the Python logging module documentation for details on logging configuration files. The log-config name for this option is deprecated.
A logging.Formatter log message format string which may use any of the available logging.LogRecord attributes. Default: None
Format string for %(asctime)s in log records. Default: None
(Optional) Name of log file to output to. If not set, logging will go to stdout.
(Optional) The directory to keep log files in (will be prepended to --log-file)
