## Configuration reference
Headscale's configuration file is named `config.json` or `config.yaml`. Headscale will look for it in `/etc/headscale`, `~/.headscale` and finally the directory from where the Headscale binary is executed.
```
"server_url": "http://192.168.1.12:8000",
"listen_addr": "0.0.0.0:8000",
```
`server_url` is the external URL via which Headscale is reachable. `listen_addr` is the IP address and port the Headscale program should listen on.
```
"private_key_path": "private.key",
```
`private_key_path` is the path to the Wireguard private key. If the path is relative, it will be interpreted as relative to the directory the configuration file was read from.
```
"derp_map_path": "derp.yaml",
```
`derp_map_path` is the path to the [DERP](https://pkg.go.dev/tailscale.com/derp) map file. If the path is relative, it will be interpreted as relative to the directory the configuration file was read from.
```
"db_host": "localhost",
"db_port": 5432,
"db_name": "headscale",
"db_user": "foo",
"db_pass": "bar",
```
The fields starting with `db_` are used for the PostgreSQL connection information.
### Running the service via TLS (optional)
```
"tls_cert_path": ""
"tls_key_path": ""
```
Headscale can be configured to expose its web service via TLS. To configure the certificate and key file manually, set the `tls_cert_path` and `tls_cert_path` configuration parameters. If the path is relative, it will be interpreted as relative to the directory the configuration file was read from.
```
"tls_letsencrypt_hostname": "",
"tls_letsencrypt_cache_dir": ".cache",
"tls_letsencrypt_challenge_type": "HTTP-01",
```
To get a certificate automatically via [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/), set `tls_letsencrypt_hostname` to the desired certificate hostname. This name must resolve to the IP address(es) Headscale is reachable on (i.e., it must correspond to the `server_url` configuration parameter). The certificate and Let's Encrypt account credentials will be stored in the directory configured in `tls_letsencrypt_cache_dir`. If the path is relative, it will be interpreted as relative to the directory the configuration file was read from. The certificate will automatically be renewed as needed. The default challenge type HTTP-01 requires that Headscale listens on port 80 for the Let's Encrypt automated validation, in addition to whatever port is configured in `listen_addr`. Alternatively, `tls_letsencrypt_challenge_type` can be set to `TLS-ALPN-01`. In this configuration, Headscale must be reachable via port 443, but port 80 is not required.
