The Trac Configuration File

Trac is configured through the trac.ini file, located in the <projectenv>/conf directory. The trac.ini configuration file and its parent directory should be writable by the web server.

Trac monitors the timestamp of the file to trigger an environment reload when the timestamp changes. Most changes to the configuration will be reflected immediately, though changes to the [components] or [logging] sections will require restarting the web server. You may also need to restart the web server after creating a global configuration file when none was previously present.

Global Configuration

Configuration can be shared among environments using one or more global configuration files. Options in the global configuration will be merged with the environment-specific options, with local options overriding global options. The global configuration file is specified as follows:

[inherit]
file = /path/to/global/trac.ini

Multiple files can be specified using a comma-separated list. Non-absolute paths are relative to the Environment conf directory.

Note that you can also specify a global option file when creating a new project, by adding the option --inherit=/path/to/global/trac.ini to trac-admin's initenv command. If you specify --inherit but nevertheless intend to use a global option file with your new environment, you will have to go through the newly generated conf/trac.ini file and delete the entries that will otherwise override those in the global file.

There are three more options in the [inherit] section, templates_dir for sharing global templates, htdocs_dir for sharing global htdocs and plugins_dir, for sharing plugins. Those options can be specified in the shared configuration file, and in fact, configuration files can even be chained if you specify another [inherit] file there.

Note that the templates found in the templates/ directory of the TracEnvironment have precedence over those found in [inherit] templates_dir. In turn, the latter have precedence over the installed templates, so be careful about what you put there. Notably, if you override a default template, refresh your modifications when you upgrade to a new version of Trac. The preferred way to perform TracInterfaceCustomization is to write a custom plugin doing an appropriate ITemplateStreamFilter transformation.

Reference for settings

This is a reference of available configuration options, and their default settings.

Documentation improvements should be discussed on the ​trac-dev mailing list or described in a ​ticket. Even better, ​submit a patch against the docstrings in the code.

downloadable_paths	List of repository paths that can be downloaded. Leave this option empty if you want to disable all downloads, otherwise set it to a comma-separated list of authorized paths (those paths are glob patterns, i.e. "*" can be used as a wild card). In a multi-repository environment, the path must be qualified with the repository name if the path does not point to the default repository (e.g. /reponame/trunk). Note that a simple prefix matching is performed on the paths, so aliases won't get automatically resolved.	/trunk,/branches/*,/tags/*
hide_properties	Comma-separated list of version control properties to hide from the repository browser.	svk:merge
intermediate_color	(r,g,b) color triple to use for the color corresponding to the intermediate color, if two linear interpolations are used for the color scale (see intermediate_point). If not set, the intermediate color between oldest_color and newest_color will be used.	(no default)

max_diff_files	Maximum number of modified files for which the changeset view will attempt to show the diffs inlined.	0
wiki_format_messages	Whether wiki formatting should be applied to changeset messages. If this option is disabled, changeset messages will be rendered as pre-formatted text.	enabled

[components]

Enable or disable components provided by Trac and plugins. The component to enable/disable is specified by the option name. The enabled state is determined by the option value: setting the value to enabled or on will enable the component, any other value (typically disabled or off) will disable the component.

The option name is either the fully qualified name of the component or the module/package prefix of the component. The former enables/disables a specific component, while the latter enables/disables any component in the specified package/module.

Consider the following configuration snippet:

[components]
trac.ticket.report.ReportModule = disabled
acct_mgr.* = enabled

The first option tells Trac to disable the report module. The second option instructs Trac to enable all components in the acct_mgr package. The trailing wildcard is required for module/package matching.

To view the list of active components, go to the Plugins section of About Trac (requires CONFIG_VIEW permission).

See also: TracPlugins

[extra-permissions]

This section provides a way to add arbitrary permissions to a Trac environment. This can be useful for adding new permissions to use for workflow actions, for example.

To add new permissions, create a new section [extra-permissions] in your trac.ini. Every entry in that section defines a meta-permission and a comma-separated list of permissions. For example:

[extra-permissions]
EXTRA_ADMIN = EXTRA_VIEW, EXTRA_MODIFY, EXTRA_DELETE

This entry will define three new permissions EXTRA_VIEW, EXTRA_MODIFY and EXTRA_DELETE, as well as a meta-permissions EXTRA_ADMIN that grants all three permissions.

The permissions are created in upper-case characters regardless of the casing of the definitions in trac.ini. For example, the definition extra_view would create the permission EXTRA_VIEW.

If you don't want a meta-permission, start the meta-name with an underscore (_):

[extra-permissions]
_perms = EXTRA_VIEW, EXTRA_MODIFY

If given a list, the first non-empty value is used. Example: starter,authors (this would show who started the build if it was started manually, else list the authors of the commits that triggered the build if any, else show no author for the build).	(no default)

default-access

Defines the default access level for options that don't have an explicit access level defined. Defaults to readonly.

readonly

[intertrac]

This section configures InterTrac prefixes. Option names in this section that contain a . are of the format <name>.<attribute>. Option names that don't contain a . define an alias.

The .url attribute is mandatory and is used for locating the other Trac. This can be a relative path when the other Trac environment is located on the same server.

The .title attribute is used for generating a tooltip when the cursor is hovered over an InterTrac link.

Example configuration:

[intertrac]
# -- Example of setting up an alias:
t = trac

# -- Link to an external Trac:
genshi.title = Edgewall's Trac for Genshi
genshi.url = https://genshi.edgewall.org

[interwiki]

Every option in the [interwiki] section defines one InterWiki prefix. The option name defines the prefix. The option value defines the URL, optionally followed by a description separated from the URL by whitespace. Parametric URLs are supported as well.

Example:

[interwiki]
MeatBall = http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl?
PEP = http://www.python.org/peps/pep-$1.html Python Enhancement Proposal $1
tsvn = tsvn: Interact with TortoiseSvn

[logging]

log_file	If log_type is file, this should be a path to the log-file. Relative paths are resolved relative to the log directory of the environment.	trac.log
log_format	Custom logging format. If nothing is set, the following will be used: Trac[$(module)s] $(levelname)s: $(message)s In addition to regular key names supported by the ​Python logger library one could use: $(path)s the path for the current environment $(basename)s the last path component of the current environment $(project)s the project name Note the usage of $(...)s instead of %(...)s as the latter form would be interpreted by the ConfigParser itself. Example: ($(thread)d) Trac[$(basename)s:$(module)s] $(levelname)s: $(message)s	(no default)
log_level	Level of verbosity in log. Should be one of (CRITICAL, ERROR, WARNING, INFO, DEBUG).	INFO
log_type	Logging facility to use. Should be one of (none, file, stderr, syslog, winlog).	file

[mainnav]

Configures the main navigation bar, which by default contains Wiki, Timeline, Roadmap, Browse Source, View Tickets, New Ticket, Search and Admin.

The label, href, and order attributes can be specified. Entries can be disabled by setting the value of the navigation item to disabled.

The following example renames the link to WikiStart to Home, links the View Tickets entry to a specific report and disables the Search entry.

[mainnav]
wiki.label = Home
tickets.href = /report/24
search = disabled

See TracNavigation for more details.

[metanav]

Configures the meta navigation entries, which by default are Login, Logout, Preferences, Help/Guide and About Trac. The allowed attributes are the same as for [mainnav]. Additionally, a special entry is supported - logout.redirect is the page the user sees after hitting the logout button. For example:

[metanav]
logout.redirect = wiki/Logout

See TracNavigation for more details.

[milestone]

default_group_by	Default field to use for grouping tickets in the grouped progress bar. (since 1.2)	component
default_retarget_to	Default milestone to which tickets are retargeted when closing or deleting a milestone. (since 1.1.2)	(no default)
stats_provider	Name of the component implementing ITicketGroupStatsProvider, which is used to collect statistics on groups of tickets for display in the milestone views.	DefaultTicketGroupStatsProvider

[milestone-groups]

As the workflow for tickets is now configurable, there can be many ticket states, and simply displaying closed tickets vs. all the others is maybe not appropriate in all cases. This section enables one to easily create groups of states that will be shown in different colors in the milestone progress bar.

Note that the groups can only be based on the ticket status, nothing else. In particular, it's not possible to distinguish between different closed tickets based on the resolution.

Example configuration with three groups, closed, new and active (the default only has closed and active):

# the 'closed' group correspond to the 'closed' tickets
closed = closed

# .order: sequence number in the progress bar
closed.order = 0

# .query_args: optional parameters for the corresponding
#              query. In this example, the changes from the
#              default are two additional columns ('created' and
#              'modified'), and sorting is done on 'created'.
closed.query_args = group=resolution,order=time,col=id,col=summary,col=owner,col=type,col=priority,col=component,col=severity,col=time,col=changetime

# .overall_completion: indicates groups that count for overall
#                      completion percentage
closed.overall_completion = true

new = new
new.order = 1
new.css_class = new
new.label = new

# Note: one catch-all group for other statuses is allowed
active = *
active.order = 2

# .css_class: CSS class for this interval
active.css_class = open

# .label: displayed label for this group
active.label = in progress

The definition consists in a comma-separated list of accepted status. Also, '*' means any status and could be used to associate all remaining states to one catch-all group.

The CSS class can be one of: new (yellow), open (no color) or closed (green). Other styles can easily be added using custom CSS rule: table.progress td.<class> { background: <color> } to a site/style.css file for example.

[mimeviewer]

Paths to ​sqlite extensions. The paths may be absolute or relative to the Trac environment.

(no default)

[svn]

[svn:externals]

The TracBrowser for Subversion can interpret the svn:externals property of folders. By default, it only turns the URLs into links as Trac can't browse remote repositories.

However, if you have another Trac instance (or an other repository browser like ​ViewVC) configured to browse the target repository, then you can instruct Trac which other repository browser to use for which external URL. This mapping is done in the [svn:externals] section of the TracIni.

Example:

[svn:externals]
1 = svn://server/repos1                       http://trac/proj1/browser/$path?rev=$rev
2 = svn://server/repos2                       http://trac/proj2/browser/$path?rev=$rev
3 = http://theirserver.org/svn/eng-soft       http://ourserver/viewvc/svn/$path/?pathrev=25914
4 = svn://anotherserver.com/tools_repository  http://ourserver/tracs/tools/browser/$path?rev=$rev

With the above, the svn://anotherserver.com/tools_repository/tags/1.1/tools external will be mapped to http://ourserver/tracs/tools/browser/tags/1.1/tools?rev= (and rev will be set to the appropriate revision number if the external additionally specifies a revision, see the ​SVN Book on externals for more details).

Note that the number used as a key in the above section is purely used as a place holder, as the URLs themselves can't be used as a key due to various limitations in the configuration file parser.

Finally, the relative URLs introduced in ​Subversion 1.5 are not yet supported.

htdocs_location	Base URL for serving the core static resources below /chrome/common/. It can be left empty, and Trac will simply serve those resources itself. Advanced users can use this together with trac-admin ... deploy <deploydir> to allow serving the static resources for Trac directly from the web server. Note however that this only applies to the <deploydir>/htdocs/common directory, the other deployed resources (i.e. those from plugins) will not be made available this way and additional rewrite rules will be needed in the web server.	(no default)

use_base_url_for_redirect	Optionally use [trac] base_url for redirects. In some configurations, usually involving running Trac behind a HTTP proxy, Trac can't automatically reconstruct the URL that is used to access it. You may need to use this option to force Trac to use the base_url setting also for redirects. This introduces the obvious limitation that this environment will only be usable when accessible from that URL, as redirects are frequently used.	disabled
use_chunked_encoding	If enabled, send contents as chunked encoding in HTTP/1.1. Otherwise, send contents with Content-Length header after entire of the contents are rendered. (since 1.0.6)	enabled
use_xsendfile	When true, send a X-Sendfile header and no content when sending files from the filesystem, so that the web server handles the content. This requires a web server that knows how to handle such a header, like Apache with mod_xsendfile or lighttpd. (since 1.0)	disabled

Configure Error Reporting

The error reporting page has a Create button for reporting issues. The site to which issues are reported depends on the configuration of the Trac site and the user’s permissions.

If the user doesn’t possess TRAC_ADMIN, the site to which a user is directed to create a ticket is determined by the [trac] admin_trac_url setting:

• If empty, there will be no Create button.
• If set to the default value (.), the ticket will be created on the site which the error occurred.
• Otherwise the ticket will be created at the site pointed to by admin_trac_url.

If [project] admin is not empty, the administrator's email address will be rendered on the error page.

If the user possesses TRAC_ADMIN, the Create button will direct the user to report the issue on trac.edgewall.org. If the error was generated in a plugin, the error will be reported to the project URL provided that the plugin author has included the project URL in the plugin installation data. The user possessing TRAC_ADMIN also sees a traceback and system information on the error page.
