Configuration

A node is configured through CLI flags (and, for clusters, a cluster.json). The most common knobs:

Flag	Default	Purpose
`--port`	`5000`	HTTP listen port
`--data-dir`	`./data`	Directory holding the `.dfdb` file(s)

Engine options (when embedding) include the page-cache size and whether the write-ahead log is enabled:


var options = new DatabaseOptions {
    CacheSizeInPages = 200_000,   // page cache (8 KB pages)
    EnableWal = true,             // durability via write-ahead log
};
using var db = DocumentForgeDb.Create("app.dfdb", options);

The cluster.json schema (shards, leaders, collection strategies) is covered in Concepts → Sharding.

A complete field-by-field reference (every option, default, and effect) is being built out.
