🌈 ENVIRONMENT 🌈

the behavior of the sigsum tools is affected by the following environment variables:

• SIGSUM_POLICY_DIR — if set, this determines the location where the sigsum tools will look for named policy files (*.sigsum-policy). set it, and you're the main character choosing your own adventure 🗺️💖

---

🍓 FILES 🍓

• /etc/sigsum/policy — this directory is the default location for named policy files (*.sigsum-policy), when SIGSUM_POLICY_DIR is not set. so if you didn't set the env var, this is the vibe default 🏠✨
