 This plugin provides the following configuration options.
 
-## Data Directory
-The `data_dir` option specifies the directory where data files are stored. By default, this is set to `data`.
+## Data Sources
+The `sources` option is a dictionary that defines the data sources to be used.
+Each key-value pair represents a source name and its corresponding directory path.
+
+A source can reference directories or files.
+If a directory is specified, all files in the directory and its subdirectories will be loaded.
+
+By default, a single data source named `data` is defined with the directory path `data`.
