Quacker Config

Configuration XML

Quacker parses all xml files in the configuration directory, except for those with names of the form [xxx]_disabled.xml. They are aggregated into a single structure during parsing, so division of configuration into different xml files is purely cosmetic.

<anything> (root element is unimportant)
  <history> (persist events to DB eg Mongo)
  <validUser> (control over access to the status page)
  <services> 
    <service>
  <services> 
  <notifiers>
    <mailer>
</anything>
