• codeName : project's code name
• logConfig : file system path of log like /var/wwww/projectX/log.txt, or database configuration

####logConfig#### logConfig's structure depends on the storage type of the log.

If the log is stored in a text file, logConfig must have the following configuration:

• filePath : the file system path of the log

If the log is stored in a database such as Mysql or MongoDB, logConfig must have the following configuration:

• db.host : the database server's host address
• db.port : the database server's port address
