Configuration Management

This application provides configuration management capabilities for EMQX.

At compile time it reads all configuration schemas and generates the following files:

• config-en.md: documentation for all configuration options.
• schema-en.json: JSON description of all configuration schema options.
• emqx.conf.example: an example of a complete configuration file.

At runtime, it provides:

• Cluster configuration synchronization capability. Responsible for synchronizing hot-update configurations from the HTTP API to the entire cluster and ensuring consistency.

In addition, this application manages system-level configurations such as cluster, node, log.
