100 </header>
101 <p>The main configuration file for <em>dav</em> is <code>$HOME/.dav/config.xml</code> and is used for configuring repositories, proxies and encryption keys. This configuration is also used by <em>dav-sync</em>. The file is created automaticaly if it doesn’t exist.</p>
102 <p>The <em>config.xml</em> file is an XML file with <code><configuration></code> as root element. The <code><configuration></code> element can have the following child elements: <code><repository></code>, <code><http-proxy></code>, <code><https-proxy></code>, <code><key></code>, <code><namespace></code></p>
103 <h2 id="repository">repository</h2>
104 <p>This element is used to configure a repository. A repository must have a unique name to identify the repository and a url pointing to the root collection for this repository.</p>
105 <p>Required child elements: <code><name></code>, <code><url></code><br />
106 Optional elements: <code><user></code>, <code><password></code>, <code><default-key></code>, <code><full-encryption></code>, <code><content-encryption></code>, <code><decrypt-content></code>, <code><decrypt-name></code>, <code><cert></code>, <code><verification></code>, <code><ssl-version></code>, <code><authmethods></code></p>

108 <p>Unique repository identifer.</p>
109 <p>Type: string<br />
110 Example: <code><name>myrepo</name></code></p>
111 <h3 id="url">url</h3>

126 Example: <code><stored-user>alice</stored-user></code></p>
127 <h3 id="default-key">default-key</h3>
128 <p>Identifer of the key used by default for encryption. There must be a configured key with this name.</p>
129 <p>Type: string<br />
130 Example: <code><default-key>mykey</default-key></code></p>
131 <h3 id="full-encryption">full-encryption</h3>
132 <p>If this element has the value of true, content and resource name encryption/decryption is enabled. Resources are only encrypted if the repository has a default-key or a key is specified via command line option. Because encryption and decryption is disabled by default, <code>false</code> has no effect for this element.</p>
133 <p>Type: boolean<br />
134 Default: false<br />
135 Example: <code><full-encryption>true</full-encryption></code></p>
136 <h3 id="content-encryption">content-encryption</h3>
137 <p>This element enables only content encryption and decryption. A value of <code>false</code> disables content encryption, but it does not disables content decryption, if this is enabled with <code><decrypt-content></code>.</p>
138 <p>Type: boolean<br />
139 Default: false<br />
140 Example: <code><content-encryption>true</content-encryption></code></p>

143 <p>Type: boolean<br />
144 Default false<br />
145 Example: <code><decrypt-content>true</decrypt-content></code></p>
146 <h3 id="decrypt-name">decrypt-name</h3>

148 <p>Type: boolean<br />
149 Default: false<br />

155 <p>Note: This element does the same as curl’s <code>--cacert</code> option.</p>
156 <h3 id="verification">verification</h3>
157 <p>This element can disable TLS certificate verification.</p>
158 <p>Type: boolean<br />

169 Example: <code><authmethods>basic digest</authmethods></code></p>
170 <h2 id="key">key</h2>
171 <p>The <code><key></code> element configures a key used for encryption. A key must have a unique name, which is stored in the properties of encrypted resources. To decrypt resources, dav looks for configured keys with this name, therefore the name of the key should never changed and must be the same on all hosts accessing the same repository.</p>

173 Optional elements: <code><type></code></p>

189 <p>Required child elements: <code><url></code><br />
190 Optional elements: <code><user></code>, <code><password></code>, <code><no></code></p>
191 <h3 id="url-1">url</h3>
