You have to create a configuration file in one of the locations mentioned in README.rst by yourself.
Examples can be found here and here.

If you just want to change the filename for twitter images like in #224, the following example does the trick:

{
  "extractor": {
    "twitter": {
      "filename": "{date}_{tweet_id}_{num}.{extension}"
    }
  }
}

Hello ucok66,

gallery-dl.conf is a configuration file and by default is not
present, i.e. if you need to customize gallery-dl behaviour you
can just populate it.
