Configuration

To run the agent-based system correctly, you must provide configuration parameters for accessing external APIs and databases.

These parameters must be placed in a file named config.yaml located at the root of the repository.

The config.yaml file is used both at runtime and during documentation generation (e.g., on ReadTheDocs), and it must contain the following keys:

project: "your-project-code"
location: "your-server-location"
INFLUXDB_URL: "http://dummy-url"
INFLUXDB_TOKEN: "your-influxdb-token"
INFLUXDB_ORG: "your-influxdb-org"
INFLUXDB_BUCKET: "your-influxdb-bucket"
ELS_API_KEY: "your-elsevier-api-key"

The configuration loader prioritizes environment variables (if set), and falls back to this file if any variable is missing.

Note

If the config.yaml file is missing, the system may raise a FileNotFoundError or KeyError, especially during local tests or documentation builds.

Make sure to include this file in your development setup and document it for other users or team members.
