Server Configuration Flags

Dragonfly can be tuned and configured by a set of config flags. These flags can be:

  1. Passed to a Dragonfly as command line arguments. E.g, dragonfly --port=6379.
  2. Loaded from a file. E.g. dragonfly --flagfile=path_to_flags/flags.txt
  3. Can be set via env variables by adding the prefix DFLY_ followed by the flag name. E.g. export DFLY_port=6379 (note it's case sensitive)
  4. At runtime via CONFIG SET command. Not all flags can be configured at runtime.

You can try dragonfly --helpfull to get a list of all flags or --help=substring shows help for flags which include specified substring in either in the name, description or path.
