IDs

OliveTin actions do not require IDs to be specified in the config.yaml, as most users of OliveTin start off with the Web Interface. However, if you want to use OliveTin actions via the API, then you will need to set your action IDs manually.

OliveTin will automatically generate a new ID for actions every time it starts up, for actions that don’t have an id: property set. 
actions:
  - title: Start the reactor
    id: start_reactor
    shell: /bin/startReactor.sh
