2 Server configuration

kske edited this page 2020-10-20 17:37:14 +02:00

Envoy Server offers a static configuration that can be manipulated in two different ways:

1. By modifying the server.properties file inside the Envoy Server JAR file
2. By passing command line arguments to Envoy Server on startup

The server.properties file specifies defaults for all configuration values. When a value is missing, an error message will be displayed and the server won't start.

Each configuration value has a name and an abbreviation, both of which can be used interchangeably. At the moment, the following configuration values are offered:

Name	Shorthand	Description	Default Value
homeDirectory	home	Where the server stores all of its data	~/.envoy
fileLevelBarrier	fb	The logger level for the log file	OFF
consoleLevelBarrier	cb	The logger level for the console logger	FINER
enter-to-stop	dev-stop	Whether the server can be stopped by pressing the return key on the command line	true
issueCreationURL	i-url	The url where issues should be reported to. Leave empty to disable sending issue proposals.	The issue page on git.kske.dev
issueAuthToken	i-token	The token used to authenticate to the git server storing the issues. Shouldn't be changed manually.	(redacted)
userMadeLabel	l-um	The ID of the "user made" label	272
bugLabel	l-b	The ID of the "bug" label	117
featureLabel	l-f	The ID of the "feature" label	119
enableIssueReporting	e-ir	Whether to enable issue reporting	true
enableGroups	e-g	Whether to enable groups	true
enableAttachments	e-a	Whether to enable attachments	true
authTokenExpiration	tok-exp	The amount of days after which the authentication token expires	90
