sympa-config-create(1)

✨ NAME ✨

sympa-config-create — ok so bestie, this is the one that creates a configuration file 💖 that's literally it, that's the whole job. She's the sympa-config-create(1) girlie from the sympa lineup and she is HERE to birth you a fresh config 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

"sympa config create" [ "--config="/path/to/new/sympa.conf ]
[ "-o", "--output="set ... ]

no cap, that's the whole spell 🪄

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

It creates a new sympa.conf configuration file. Boom. Iconic behaviour, honestly. ✨

🫶 Options

• "--config", "-f"="/path/to/new/sympa.conf — use an alternative configuration file, iykyk. Like, if you don't wanna use the default one, point her somewhere else 🦋
• "-o", "--output"=set ... — specify set(s) of parameters to be output 👑 set can be either "omittable", "optional", "mandatory", "full" (which is a synonym of the former three, so like, the same vibe) or "minimal".

Lowkey important: you can specify this option more than once. Stack 'em, collect 'em, go feral 💖

By default, only the "minimal" set of parameters gets written into the configuration file — meaning just those described in the installation manual. Nothing extra, she's being modest 🎀
