The default configuration should suffice for most cases, but if you want to change the configuration, you can do so by adding a configuration section handler to the web.config file:


<configSections>
  <section name="Brail" type="Brail.BrailConfigurationSection, Brail" />
</configSections>

Here is the default configuration for Brail:


<Brail
    debug="false"
    saveToDisk="false"
    saveDirectory="Brail_Generated_Code"
    batch="true"
    commonScriptsDirectory="CommonScripts">

    <reference assembly="My.Assembly.Name"/>
</Brail>

Option:		Default Value:	Possible values:
Debug	Generate debug or retail code	false	true - generate debug code false - generate retial code
saveToDisk	Save the generated assemblies to disk - useful if you want to know what is going on behind the scenes.	false	true - save assemblies to disk false - use entirely in memory
saveDirectory	The directory to save the generated assemblies to. The path can be relative or absolute, if relative, the default ASP.Net bin path will be used. If the directory does not exist, it will be created.	"Brail_Generated_Code"	Any valid path
batch	Batch compilation, compile all the scripts in one folder to a single assembly. This does not work recursively.	true	true - all scripts in a folder will be compiled to a single assembly false - each script will be compiled to its own assembly
commonScriptsDirectory	The directory where all the common scripts are. This can be a relative or absolute path, if relative, the Views directory of the application will be used as the base. If the directory does not exist, it will not be created.	"CommonScripts"	Any valid path
reference element, assembly attribute	This tells Brails that all your scripts should reference the specified assembly(ies), this allows strong typing in the views and avoid the cost of reflection.	none	The assembly attribute must contains a valid assembly name that is reachable to the application by using Assembly.Load() (usually this means that it's located on the bin directory of the application.
