Configuration
The configuration is based on the file
defaults.hjson.
This file also contains documentation for all the available options. To override the defaults, you
can copy the options you want to change into your local config.hjson
file.
Additionally, you can override any config files with environment variables. These have the same
name as the config options, and are prefixed with LEMMY_
. For example, you can override the
database.password
with LEMMY__DATABASE__POOL_SIZE=10
.
An additional option LEMMY_DATABASE_URL
is available, which can be used with a PostgreSQL
connection string like postgres://lemmy:password@lemmy_db:5432/lemmy
, passing all connection
details at once.
If the Docker container is not used, manually create the database specified above by running the following commands:
cd server
./db-init.sh
