The Trac Configuration File
Table of Contents
Trac configuration is done by editing the trac.ini config file, located in <projectenv>/conf/trac.ini.
Global Configuration
Since version 0.9, Trac can also read the configuration from a global trac.ini file. These global options will then be merged with the environment-specific options, where local options override global options.
The global configuration is by default localted in $prefix/share/trac/conf/trac.ini. It can be moved to a different location (for example, /etc/trac.ini), but that requires changing the file trac/siteconfig.py which gets created when Trac is installed.
Reference
This is a brief reference of available configuration options.
[attachment]
max_size | Maximum allowed file size (in bytes) for attachments. | 262144 |
max_zip_size |
Maximum allowed total size (in bytes) for an attachment list to be
downloadable as a | 2097152 |
render_unsafe_content | Whether attachments should be rendered in the browser, or only made downloadable. Pretty much any file may be interpreted as HTML by the browser, which allows a malicious user to attach a file containing cross-site scripting attacks. For public sites where anonymous users can create attachments it is recommended to leave this option disabled. | disabled |
[authz_policy]
authz_file |
Location of authz policy configuration file. Non-absolute paths are relative to the Environment | (no default) |
[browser]
oneliner_properties | Comma-separated list of version control properties to render as oneliner wiki content in the repository browser. | trac:summary |
wiki_properties | Comma-separated list of version control properties to render as wiki content in the repository browser. | trac:description |
[changeset]
max_diff_bytes | Maximum total size in bytes of the modified files (their old size plus their new size) for which the changeset view will attempt to show the diffs inlined. | 10000000 |
max_diff_files | Maximum number of modified files for which the changeset view will attempt to show the diffs inlined. | 0 |
wiki_format_messages | Whether wiki formatting should be applied to changeset messages. If this option is disabled, changeset messages will be rendered as pre-formatted text. | enabled |
[components]
This section is used to enable or disable components
provided by plugins, as well as by Trac itself. The component
to enable/disable is specified via the name of the
option. Whether its enabled is determined by the option value;
setting the value to enabled or on will enable the
component, any other value (typically disabled or off)
will disable the component.
The option name is either the fully qualified name of the components or the module/package prefix of the component. The former enables/disables a specific component, while the latter enables/disables any component in the specified package/module.
Consider the following configuration snippet:
[components] trac.ticket.report.ReportModule = disabled acct_mgr.* = enabled
The first option tells Trac to disable the
report module.
The second option instructs Trac to enable all components in
the acct_mgr package. Note that the trailing wildcard is
required for module/package matching.
To view the list of active components, go to the Plugins
page on About Trac (requires CONFIG_VIEW
permissions).

[extra-permissions]
This section provides a way to add arbitrary permissions to a Trac environment. This can be useful for adding new permissions to use for workflow actions, for example.
To add new permissions, create a new section [extra-permissions] in
your trac.ini. Every entry in that section defines a meta-permission
and a comma-separated list of permissions. For example:
[extra-permissions] EXTRA_ADMIN = EXTRA_VIEW, EXTRA_MODIFY, EXTRA_DELETE
This entry will define three new permissions EXTRA_VIEW,
EXTRA_MODIFY and EXTRA_DELETE, as well as a meta-permissions
EXTRA_ADMIN that grants all three permissions.
The permissions are created in upper-case characters regardless of
the casing of the definitions in trac.ini. For example, the
definition extra_view would create the permission EXTRA_VIEW.
If you don't want a meta-permission, start the meta-name with an
underscore (_):
[extra-permissions] _perms = EXTRA_VIEW, EXTRA_MODIFY
[header_logo]
alt | Alternative text for the header logo. | (please configure the [header_logo] section in trac.ini) |
height | Height of the header logo image in pixels. | -1 |
link | URL to link to, from the header logo. | (no default) |
src | URL of the image to use as header logo. It can be absolute, server relative or relative.
If relative, it is relative to one of the | site/your_project_logo.png |
width | Width of the header logo image in pixels. | -1 |
[http-headers]
Headers to be added to the HTTP request. (since 1.2.3)
The header name must conform to RFC7230 and the following reserved names are not allowed: content-type, content-length, location, etag, pragma, cache-control, expires.
[inherit]
htdocs_dir | Path to the shared htdocs directory. Static resources in that directory are mapped to /chrome/shared under the environment URL, in addition to common and site locations. This can be useful in site.html for common interface customization of multiple Trac environments.

Plugins in that directory are loaded in addition to those in
the directory of the environment

Excludes this options.
Comma separated list as | iniadmin:*,inherit:* |
passwords |
Show input-type as password instead of text.
Comma separated list as | trac:database,notification:smtp_password |
[intertrac]
This section configures InterTrac prefixes. Option names in
this section that contain a . are of the format
<name>.<attribute>. Option names that don't contain a . define
an alias.
The .url attribute is mandatory and is used for locating the
other Trac. This can be a relative path when the other Trac
environment is located on the same server.
The .title attribute is used for generating a tooltip when the
cursor is hovered over an InterTrac link.
Example configuration:
[intertrac] # -- Example of setting up an alias: t = trac # -- Link to an external Trac: genshi.title = Edgewall's Trac for Genshi genshi.url = https://genshi.edgewall.org
[interwiki]
Every option in the [interwiki] section defines one InterWiki
prefix. The option name defines the prefix. The option value defines
the URL, optionally followed by a description separated from the URL
by whitespace. Parametric URLs are supported as well.
Example:
[interwiki] MeatBall = http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl? PEP = http://www.python.org/peps/pep-$1.html Python Enhancement Proposal $1 tsvn = tsvn: Interact with TortoiseSvn
[logging]
log_file |
If | trac.log |
log_format | Custom logging format. If nothing is set, the following will be used:

[mainnav]
Configures the main navigation bar, which by default contains Wiki, Timeline, Roadmap, Browse Source, View Tickets, New Ticket, Search and Admin.
The label, href, and order attributes can be specified. Entries
can be disabled by setting the value of the navigation item to
disabled.
The following example renames the link to WikiStart to Home, links the View Tickets entry to a specific report and disables the Search entry.
[mainnav] wiki.label = Home tickets.href = /report/24 search = disabled
See TracNavigation for more details.
[metanav]
Configures the meta navigation
entries, which by default are Login, Logout, Preferences,
Help/Guide and About Trac. The allowed attributes are the
same as for [mainnav]. Additionally, a special entry is supported -
logout.redirect is the page the user sees after hitting the logout
button. For example:
[metanav] logout.redirect = wiki/Logout
See TracNavigation for more details.
[milestone]
default_group_by | Default field to use for grouping tickets in the grouped progress bar. (since 1.2) | component |
default_retarget_to | Default milestone to which tickets are retargeted when closing or deleting a milestone. (since 1.1.2) | (no default) |
stats_provider |
Name of the component implementing | DefaultTicketGroupStatsProvider |
[milestone-groups]
As the workflow for tickets is now configurable, there can be many ticket states, and simply displaying closed tickets vs. all the others is maybe not appropriate in all cases. This section enables one to easily create groups of states that will be shown in different colors in the milestone progress bar.
Note that the groups can only be based on the ticket status, nothing else. In particular, it's not possible to distinguish between different closed tickets based on the resolution.
Example configuration with three groups, closed, new and active (the default only has closed and active):
# the 'closed' group correspond to the 'closed' tickets
closed = closed
# .order: sequence number in the progress bar
closed.order = 0
# .query_args: optional parameters for the corresponding
# query. In this example, the changes from the
# default are two additional columns ('created' and
# 'modified'), and sorting is done on 'created'.
closed.query_args = group=resolution,order=time,col=id,col=summary,col=owner,col=type,col=priority,col=component,col=severity,col=time,col=changetime
# .overall_completion: indicates groups that count for overall
# completion percentage
closed.overall_completion = true
new = new
new.order = 1
new.css_class = new
new.label = new
# Note: one catch-all group for other statuses is allowed
active = *
active.order = 2
# .css_class: CSS class for this interval
active.css_class = open
# .label: displayed label for this group
active.label = in progress
The definition consists in a comma-separated list of accepted status. Also, '*' means any status and could be used to associate all remaining states to one catch-all group.
The CSS class can be one of: new (yellow), open (no color) or
closed (green). Other styles can easily be added using custom
CSS rule: table.progress td.<class> { background: <color> }
to a site/style.css file
for example.

[svn:externals]
The TracBrowser for Subversion can interpret the svn:externals
property of folders. By default, it only turns the URLs into links as
Trac can't browse remote repositories.
However, if you have another Trac instance (or an other repository
browser like ViewVC) configured to browse the
target repository, then you can instruct Trac which other repository
browser to use for which external URL. This mapping is done in the
[svn:externals] section of the TracIni.
Example:
[svn:externals] 1 = svn://server/repos1 http://trac/proj1/browser/$path?rev=$rev 2 = svn://server/repos2 http://trac/proj2/browser/$path?rev=$rev 3 = http://theirserver.org/svn/eng-soft http://ourserver/viewvc/svn/$path/?pathrev=25914 4 = svn://anotherserver.com/tools_repository http://ourserver/tracs/tools/browser/$path?rev=$rev
With the above, the
svn://anotherserver.com/tools_repository/tags/1.1/tools external will
be mapped to http://ourserver/tracs/tools/browser/tags/1.1/tools?rev=
(and rev will be set to the appropriate revision number if the
external additionally specifies a revision, see the
SVN Book on externals for more details).
Note that the number used as a key in the above section is purely used as a place holder, as the URLs themselves can't be used as a key due to various limitations in the configuration file parser.
Finally, the relative URLs introduced in Subversion 1.5 are not yet supported.

[components]
(since 0.9)
This section is used to enable or disable components provided by plugins, as well as by Trac itself. The component to enable/disable is specified via the name of the option. Whether its enabled is determined by the option value; setting the value to enabled or on will enable the component, any other value (typically disabled or off) will disable the component.
The option name is either the fully qualified name of the components or the module/package prefix of the component. The former enables/disables a specific component, while the latter enables/disables any component in the specified package/module.
Consider the following configuration snippet:
[components] trac.ticket.report.ReportModule = disabled webadmin.* = enabled
The first option tells Trac to disable the report module. The second option instructs Trac to enable all components in the webadmin package. Note that the trailing wildcard is required for module/package matching.
See the Plugins page on About Trac to get the list of active components (requires CONFIG_VIEW permissions.)

Note that prior to Trac r2335 (that applies to 0.9b1 and 0.9b2), you would use a
[disabled_components]section instead. See a previous version of this page for the details.
