Configuration#

Wake can be configured using configuration options loaded from multiple sources in the following order:

default values,
global configuration file,
project configuration file,
environment variables,
command-line arguments.

Default values#

Info

The following TOML snippet shows the default values of all configuration options. LSP configuration options are not included in this snippet.

Global configuration file#

The global configuration file is loaded from $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/wake/config.toml. If $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is not set, the global configuration file is loaded from:

$HOME/.config/wake/config.toml on Linux/MacOS,
%LOCALAPPDATA%\wake\config.toml on Windows.

Additionally, there is a plugins.toml file in the same directory. It holds verified_paths with trusted paths to detectors and printers. The paths are updated automatically with command-line queries or when creating a new detector or printer.

The plugins.toml file can be used to specify priorities when having multiple colliding detectors or printers of the same name installed.

Example plugins.toml

[detector_loading_priorities]
reentrancy = "my_detectors"  # prefer my_detectors module if present
unused-import = ["my_detectors", "wake_detectors"]  # prefer my_detectors, then wake_detectors
"*" = "wake_detectors"  # prefer wake_detectors for all other detectors

[printer_loading_priorities]
# follows the same structure

Project configuration file#

The project configuration file is loaded from ./wake.toml. This can be changed using the wake --config path/to/wake.toml command-line option.

Subconfigs#

The global config.toml and project configuration files can include additional TOML files (subconfigs). These subconfigs are loaded after the original configuration file in the specified order. Subconfig configuration values override the values of the parent configuration file.

Example

subconfigs = ["loaded_next.toml", "../relative.toml", "/tmp/absolute.toml", "loaded_last.toml"]

Environment variables#

Environment variables (if supported) are printed in the help message of each command on the command-line.

Command-line arguments#

Command-line arguments for each command can be displayed using the --help option.

Configuration options#

`api_keys` namespace#

The api_keys namespace may contain API keys for Etherscan, BscScan, PolygonScan, etc. Blockchain explorer API keys are stored under the lowercase name of the explorer with a subdomain prefix if needed (e.g. goerli.etherscan).

Additionally, detectors and printers may use this namespace to load needed API keys.

Warning

Keep your API keys secret. Store them in the global configuration file or in a separate file included as a subconfig and add this file to .gitignore.

`compiler.solc` namespace#

Option	Description
`allow_paths`	Allow paths passed to the `solc` executable
`evm_version`	EVM version as specified by the Solidity docs
`exclude_paths`	Files in these paths are not compiled unless imported from other non-excluded files
`include_paths`	Paths (along with the current working directory) where files from non-relative imports are searched
`remappings`	Compiler remappings as specified by the Solidity docs
`target_version`	Target `solc` version used to compile the project
`via_IR`	Compile the code via the Yul intermediate language (see the Solidity docs)

Info

The include_paths option is the preferred way to handle imports of libraries. Remappings should be used only when include_paths cannot be used (e.g. when the import path differs from the system path of the imported file).

`compiler.solc.optimizer` namespace#

Option	Description
`enabled`	Compile the project with solc optimizations enabled. Leaving this unset disables most of the available optimizations. Setting this to `false` disables all optimizations for Solidity <0.8.6 and has the same behavior as leaving this unset for Solidity >=0.8.6.
`runs`	Configuration of the optimizer specifying how many times the code is intended to be run. Lower values optimize more for initial deployment cost, while higher values optimize more for high-frequency usage.

`compiler.solc.optimizer.details` namespace#

For optimizer details, see the Solidity docs. Settings follow the same structure as in the Solidity docs with an exception of optimizer.details.yul not being supported.

`detector` namespace#

This namespace contains detector-specific configuration options. See the documentation of each detector for more information. Each detector has its own namespace under the detector namespace, e.g. detector.reentrancy. Every dector supports at least the min_confidence and min_impact options:

[detector."unchecked-return-value"]
min_confidence = "medium"
min_impact = "high"

`detectors` namespace#

Option	Description
`exclude`	List of detectors that should not be enabled.
`only`	List of detectors that should only be enabled.
`ignore_paths`	Detections or subdetections in these paths are always ignored. Intended for files that will never be deployed (e.g. test files).
`exclude_paths`	Detections are excluded if a whole detection (including subdetections) is in these paths. Intended for dependencies.

`general` namespace#

Option	Description
`call_trace_options`	What information to display in call traces. Possible options: `contract_name`, `address`, `function_name`, `named_arguments`, `arguments`, `status`, `call_type`, `value`, `gas`, `sender`, `return_value`, `error`.
`json_rpc_timeout`	Timeout in seconds when communicating with a node via JSON-RPC.
`link_format`	Format of links to source code files used in detectors and printers. The link should contain `{path}`, `{line}` and `{col}` placeholders.

`generator.control_flow_graph` namespace#

Related to the wake.generate.control_flow_graph LSP command.

Option	Description	Default value
`direction`	Graph direction. Possible options: `TB`, `BT`, `LR`, `RL`.	`TB`
`vscode_urls`	Attach VS Code URLs to the graph nodes	`true`

`generator.imports_graph` namespace#

Related to the wake.generate.imports_graph LSP command.

Option	Description	Default value
`direction`	Graph direction. Possible options: `TB`, `BT`, `LR`, `RL`.	`TB`
`imports_direction`	Direction of edges between imported files. Possible options: `imported-to-importing`, `importing-to-imported`.	`imported-to-importing`
`vscode_urls`	Attach VS Code URLs to the graph nodes	`true`

`generator.inheritance_graph` namespace#

Related to the wake.generate.inheritance_graph LSP command.

Option	Description	Default value
`direction`	Graph direction. Possible options: `TB`, `BT`, `LR`, `RL`.	`BT`
`vscode_urls`	Attach VS Code URLs to the graph nodes	`true`

`generator.inheritance_graph_full` namespace#

Related to the wake.generate.inheritance_graph_full LSP command.

Option	Description	Default value
`direction`	Graph direction. Possible options: `TB`, `BT`, `LR`, `RL`.	`BT`
`vscode_urls`	Attach VS Code URLs to the graph nodes	`true`

`generator.linearized_inheritance_graph` namespace#

Related to the wake.generate.linearized_inheritance_graph LSP command.

Option	Description	Default value
`direction`	Graph direction. Possible options: `TB`, `BT`, `LR`, `RL`.	`LR`
`vscode_urls`	Attach VS Code URLs to the graph nodes	`true`

`lsp` namespace#

Option	Description	Default value
`compilation_delay`	Delay in seconds before the project is compiled after a keystroke.	`0`

`lsp.code_lens` namespace#

Option	Description	Default value
`enable`	Enable LSP code lens language feature.	`true`

`lsp.detectors` namespace#

Option	Description	Default value
`enable`	Enable vulnerability detectors in the LSP server.	`true`

`lsp.find_references` namespace#

Configuration options specific to the LSP Find references request.

Option	Description	Default value
`include_declarations`	Also include declarations in `Find references` request results.	`false`

`testing` namespace#

Option	Description
`cmd`	Development chain implementation to use. May be `anvil`, `hardhat` or `ganache`.

Option	Description
`cmd_args`	Command line arguments passed to the `anvil` executable when launching it.

`testing.hardhat` namespace#

Option	Description
