Note

Parts of this project, including the files in it, may have some information that require you to have an environment file in order to use them. This is only for privacy reasons, and you need to have your own information. See below for you should have in your environment file.

Configuration settings

Let's go over what you need to have in your configuration file. Make sure that you have filled out the required ones (if they have bolded text) so that you can run the server correctly.

• Secure cookie
  • Make sure that the server is running in production mode and that you have a proxy web server that can forward the traffic over and provide a bit of SSL security
  • If you don't have this set in your configuration file, it will be running without a secure cookie session. We recommend that you run the server on your production-based server and not on your development machine
• Domain-based cookie
  • Make sure that you have set the COOKIE_DOMAIN variable to whatever domain you are using to host the server.
  • If you don't have this set in your configuration file, it will only use the localhost domain.
• Session secret
  • Make sure that you have a perfectly generated session secret and that it's set with the COOKIE_SECRET variable in your configuration file.
  • This is a important requirement as we don't provide any secrets to the server. If you don't have this set in your configuration file, the server will fail to start up until you have added the variable with the session secret you've created.
• Cookie name
  • This is not a general requirement that you need to add, but it's only optional if you want to have a different name for your cookie session. To set a name for it, add the COOKIE_NAME variable to your configuration file and you can add anything you want to it.
  • If you don't have this set in your configuration file, it will only use the fallback one and nothing will change with it.
