buildkitd.toml

The TOML file used to configure the buildkitd daemon settings has a short list of global settings followed by a series of sections for specific areas of daemon configuration.

The file path is /etc/buildkit/buildkitd.toml for rootful mode, ~/.config/buildkit/buildkitd.toml for rootless mode.

The following is a complete buildkitd.toml configuration example. Note that some configuration options are only useful in edge cases.
