Configuration

# Output

Where dash sends command output logs.

Configure where Kamal sends command output logs.

## Output options

The options are specified under the output key in the configuration file.

```yaml
output:
```

## OTel

Ship deploy logs to an OpenTelemetry-compatible endpoint via OTLP HTTP.

Logs are sent as OTLP log records with resource attributes derived from Kamal's deploy tags (service, version, performer, destination, etc.)

```yaml
otel:
  endpoint: http://otel-gateway:4318
```

## File

Write deploy logs to a file on the local machine.

One log file is created per deploy, named with the timestamp and command.

```yaml
file:
  path: /var/log/kamal/
```
