Config File

For persistent configuration, and for certain configuration options, bottom supports config files.

Default Config File

If no config file argument is given, it will automatically look for a config file at these locations:

OS Default Config Location
macOS $HOME/Library/Application Support/bottom/bottom.toml
~/.config/bottom/bottom.toml
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/bottom/bottom.toml
Linux ~/.config/bottom/bottom.toml
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/bottom/bottom.toml
Windows C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming\bottom\bottom.toml

If the config file doesn't exist at the path, bottom will automatically try to create a new config file at the location with default values.

JSON Schema

The configuration file also has JSON Schema support to make it easier to manage, if your IDE/editor supports it.
