# Container TOML examples

Copy the appropriate TOML outside this directory and point CONFIG_FILE at the
absolute copy path. See [Docker and Compose](../../docs/docker.md) for mounts,
startup, graceful stop and config reload.

| File | Mode | Inputs |
| --- | --- | --- |
| validate.toml | Single run | /input/anchor.tal |
| validate-all5.toml | Single run | Five named RIR TALs |
| daemon.toml | Continuous | /input/anchor.tal |
| daemon-all5.toml | Continuous | Five named RIR TALs |

All examples use text/info diagnostics, require-complete=true, and automatic
TA certificate refresh (ta omitted). TAL files are never automatically updated.
Uncomment an anchor's ta field to use a fixed certificate. Policy
allow-valid-cache permits only a validated cached certificate and marks fallback
partial. First automatic use needs reachable TAL URIs; fixed files are not an
automatic-cache seed. These examples contain no TALs or certificates.

Container paths differ from native configuration paths. Validate uses
/state/repository and /state/repository.ta-cache under the writable /state mount;
daemon uses /data/state and /data/state.ta-cache. Existing /state databases need
an explicit migration or separate cache mount before switching to these paths.
