Channel filter settings
The [channel_filter] section: which active channels this node loads, by glob pattern over the channel name.
Synopsis
[channel_filter]
include = []
exclude = []
Description
Both are matched against the channel name and are comma-separated in the env var. Use them to run separate fleets off one database without splitting the control plane. One instance serves orders-*, another serves the rest.
Options
| Setting | Default | Env var | When to change |
|---|---|---|---|
channel_filter.include | [] | ORION_CHANNEL_FILTER__INCLUDE | Glob patterns; empty loads every active channel. |
channel_filter.exclude | [] | ORION_CHANNEL_FILTER__EXCLUDE | Applied after include. |
