Hi,

I'm asking for opinions and preferences.

There is no right or wrong.

Scenario:

I have a tool (server component, api only, no gui) that has a config file and no per-user adjustable things. The admin can change things, of course.

Now the tool gets plugins, where to configure them?

1. All in one config file with plugins having a section for their things,
2. plugins get their own config file.
3. the main config points to a storage (database) with config options for everything, a kind of variant of 1.
4. something else/better

Hoping for a civil discussion ;)

Cheers

Grumpy
