Query Server Configurations

The configuration file databend-query.toml contains settings for configuring the Databend query server. Additionally, you can configure more settings for the query server with the script databend-query. To find out the available settings with the script, refer to the script's help information:

./databend-query -h

This topic explains the settings you can find in the configuration file databend-query.toml.

1. Logging Config​

log.file​

  • on: Enables or disables file logging. Defaults to true.
  • dir: Path to store log files.
  • level: Log level (DEBUG | INFO | ERROR). Defaults to INFO.

    • json: Databend outputs logs in JSON format.
    • text: Databend outputs plain text logs.

log.stderr​

  • on: Enables or disables stderr logging. Defaults to false.
  • level: Log level (DEBUG | INFO | ERROR). Defaults to DEBUG.
  • format: Log format. Defaults to text.
    • text: Databend outputs plain text logs.
    • json: Databend outputs logs in JSON format.

2. Meta Service Config​

username​

  • The username used to connect to the Meta service.
  • Default: "root"

password​

  • The password used to connect to the Meta service. Databend recommends using the enviorment variable to provide the password.
  • Default: "root"
  • Env variable: META_PASSWORD

endpoints​

  • Sets one or more meta server endpoints that this query server can connect to. For a robust connection to Meta, include multiple meta servers within the cluster as backups if possible, for example, ["192.168.0.1:9191", "192.168.0.2:9191"].
  • This setting only takes effect when Databend works in cluster mode. You don't need to configure it for standalone Databend.
