clairctl config.yaml howto

[flomickl]

Hi,

clairctl has a global option for passing a configuration. But I don't really understand the use case and can't find any syntax and possible parameters I could use here. Assuming that it is not the clair config.yaml itself

--config value, -c value     clair configuration file (default: "config.yaml") [$CLAIR_CONF]

Is this 1:1 the clair config file? Is there any use case why I pass the clair conf.yaml here again?

In my understanding, I would only pass additional information like host , issuer and key and maybe skip verify or something like this here with the goal to connect with clair and nothing else.
But then I can't find any information about possible parameters.

So what parameters and syntax does this yaml config have to achieve my goal?
Many thanks in advance

Many thanks.

Yes.

For when some parts of the configuration are needed, like authentication and import-updaters/export-updaters.
