workspace
A Tailpipe workspace is a "profile" that allows you to define options for running Tailpipe.
Tailpipe workspaces allow you to define multiple named configurations and easily switch between them using the --workspace argument or TAILPIPE_WORKSPACE environment variable.

Arguments
| Argument | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| log_level | off | Set the logging output level |
| memory_max_mb | 1024 | Set a memory soft limit for the tailpipe process. Set to 0 to disable the memory limit. This can also be set via the TAILPIPE_MEMORY_MAX_MB environment variable. |
| update_check | true | Enable or disable automatic update checking. |
Workspaces are defined using the workspace block in one or more Tailpipe config files. Tailpipe will load ALL configuration files (*.tpc) from every directory in the configuration search path, with decreasing precedence. The set of workspaces is the union of all workspaces defined in these directories.
The workspace named default is special; If a workspace named default exists, it will be used whenever the --workspace argument is not passed to Tailpipe. Creating a default workspace in ~/.tailpipe/config/workspaces.tpc provides a way to set all defaults.
Note that the HCL argument names are the same as the equivalent CLI argument names, except using an underscore in place of a dash:
| Workspace Argument | Environment Variable | Argument |
|---|---|---|
| log_level | TAILPIPE_LOG_LEVEL | |
| memory_max_mb | TAILPIPE_MEMORY_MAX_MB | |
| update_check | TAILPIPE_UPDATE_CHECK |
