# root

*root* simply specifies the root of where to find (zone) files.

The default root is the current working directory of CoreDNS. A relative root path is relative to
the current working directory.

## Syntax

~~~ txt
root PATH
~~~

**PATH** is the directory to set as CoreDNS' root.

## Examples

Serve zone data (when the *file* plugin is used) from `/etc/coredns/zones`:

~~~ corefile
. {
    root /etc/coredns/zones
}
~~~
middleware/root: add it (#330) This PR adds the root middleware that specifies a path where all zone file (the file middleware is the only consumer now) can be found. It works the same as in Caddy. Documentation can be found in the README.md of the middleware. Fixes #307 2016-10-11 20:42:28 +01:00			`# root`
