ap_verify configuration file reference

This page describes the file-based configuration options used by ap_verify. Most users should not need to adjust these settings, but they allow capabilities such as registering new datasets.

The ap_verify configuration file is located at config/dataset_config.yaml. It consists of a list of dictionaries, each representing specific aspects of the program.

datasets

The datasets dictionary maps dataset names (which must be provided on the ap_verify.py command line) to GitHub repository names. Adding a dataset to the config is necessary for ap_verify to recognize it; in practice, the entry will be made once by the dataset author and then committed. A dataset must still be installed on the machine before it can be used.
