The file is written in YAML format, defined by the scheme described below. Brackets indicate that a parameter is optional. For non-list parameters the value is set to the specified default.
Generic placeholders are defined as follows:
<boolean>
: a boolean that can take the valuestrue
orfalse
<int>
: a regular integer<duration>
: a duration matching the regular expression[0-9]+(ms|[smhdwy])
<filename>
: a valid path in the current working directory<string>
: a regular string<secret>
: a regular string that is a secret, such as a password<regex>
: a regular expression
The other placeholders are specified separately.

# indicated using this option is acceptable. For example, you can use `compression: gzip` and
# `Accept-Encoding: br, gzip` or `Accept-Encoding: br;q=1.0, gzip;q=0.9`. The fact that gzip is
# acceptable with a lower quality than br does not invalidate the configuration, as you might
# be testing that the server does not return br-encoded content even if it's requested. On the
# other hand, `compression: gzip` and `Accept-Encoding: br, identity` is NOT a valid
# configuration, because you are asking for gzip to NOT be returned, and trying to decompress
# whatever the server returns is likely going to fail.
