• By default go2rtc will search config file go2rtc.yaml in current work directory
• go2rtc support multiple config files:
  • go2rtc -c config1.yaml -c config2.yaml -c config3.yaml
• go2rtc support inline config as multiple formats from command line:
  • YAML: go2rtc -c '{log: {format: text}}'
  • JSON: go2rtc -c '{"log":{"format":"text"}}'
  • key=value: go2rtc -c log.format=text
• Every next config will overwrite previous (but only defined params)

go2rtc -config "{log: {format: text}}" -config /config/go2rtc.yaml -config "{rtsp: {listen: ''}}" -config /usr/local/go2rtc/go2rtc.yaml

or simple version

go2rtc -c log.format=text -c /config/go2rtc.yaml -c rtsp.listen='' -c /usr/local/go2rtc/go2rtc.yaml

Environment variables

Also go2rtc support templates for using environment variables in any part of config:

streams:
  camera1: rtsp://rtsp:${CAMERA_PASSWORD}@192.168.1.123/av_stream/ch0

rtsp:
  username: ${RTSP_USER:admin}   # "admin" if env "RTSP_USER" not set
  password: ${RTSP_PASS:secret}  # "secret" if env "RTSP_PASS" not set

Editors like GoLand and VS Code supports autocomplete and syntax validation.
