You can find an example bitcoin.conf file in [share/examples/bitcoin.conf](../share/examples/bitcoin.conf). An example configuration file can be generated by [contrib/devtools/gen-bitcoin-conf.sh](../contrib/devtools/gen-bitcoin-conf.sh).
Run this script after compiling to generate an up-to-date configuration file.
The output is placed under `share/examples/bitcoin.conf`.
To use the generated configuration file, copy the example file into your data directory and edit it there, like so:
```
# example copy command for linux user
cp share/examples/bitcoin.conf ~/.bitcoin
```
