SYNOPSIS¶
pg_conftool [
options] [
version cluster]
[
configfile]

DESCRIPTION¶
pg_conftool allows to show and set parameters in PostgreSQL configuration
files.
If
version cluster is omitted, it defaults to the default cluster
(see
user_clusters(5) and
postgresqlrc(5)). If
configfile
is omitted, it defaults to
postgresql.conf.
configfile can also
be a path, in which case
version cluster is ignored.
