CONFIGURATION

Top

Teh default provider is a Multi provider named providers. This means that you can do

    [default]
    dsn=dbi:SQLite:ourcal
    type=dbi

    [birthday]
    file=birthday.ics
    type=icalendar

Alternatively you can specify another default provider using the provider config option

    provider=cache_everything

    [cache_everything]
    child=providers
    type=cache

    [providers]
    providers=default birthday 
    type=multi

    [default]
    dsn=dbi:SQLite:ourcal
    type=dbi

    [birthday]
    file=birthday.ics
    type=icalendar




Read individual providers for config options.
