Backend configuration
Configuring Comentario server
Comentario backend (server) has two sets of parameters.
- Static configuration, which can only be set or changed at server start-up. These parameters can be configured using command-line options or environment variables.
- Dynamic items, which can be changed at runtime and apply immediately.
The static, or start-up, configuration of Comentario server can be set using command-line options or environment variables. Both methods are equivalent, with command-line options taking precedence.
Comentario stores its sensitive data in a YAML file called secrets. The secrets file is a part of static backend configuration.
The dynamic, or runtime, configuration of Comentario server can be set in the Administration UI.
