== Using hekad.toml Files To Configure Hekad ==
* The default/sample hekad.toml file that comes with Heka is usually sufficient to being some general testing of the product, especially with Flood (see below).
* The default/sample is called "sample-config.toml" and can be found here (in the repo), or in a similar location after installation:
** https://github.com/mozilla-services/heka/blob/dev/testsupport/sample-config.toml
* Note: The following, older, sample config file is out-of-date and not suitable for testing, so should be skipped:
** https://github.com/mozilla-services/heka/blob/dev/examples/example.toml
* Beyond the sample config file, many additions can be made to the options, input, output, and filters section for specific testing.
