Migration Guide

Upgrading from version 3.1.x to 3.2 is seamless. Your existing configuration will continue to work without modification. For those who prefer the new minimal configuration format, use the --genconfig option to generate a simplified configuration file.

Option 1: Keep Your Existing Configuration

Your current config.toml will continue to work without modification. The new version will apply improved defaults automatically.

Option 2: Migrate to the New Minimal Configuration

# Backup your current config
cp config.toml config-3.1-backup.toml

# Generate a new minimal config
./hmac-file-server --genconfig > config-simple.toml

# Copy over your specific values (e.g., storage_path, secret)

# Test with the new config
./hmac-file-server -config config-simple.toml
