Useful Environment Variables

Plume relies on some environment variables for some configuration options. You can either set them before starting the app with cargo run or write them in a .env file to have automatically loaded.

Here are the variables that Plume uses:

  • BASE_URL: the domain name, or IP and port on which Plume is listening. It is used in all federation-related code.
  • DATABASE_URL: the URL of the PostgreSQL database, used by Plume (postgres://plume:plume@localhost/plume by default with PostgreSQL, plume.db with SQlite).
  • USE_HTTPS: if it is 0, federation and medias will be using HTTP by default (1 by default).
  • ROCKET_ADDRESS: the adress on which Plume should listen (0.0.0.0 by default).
  • ROCKET_PORT: the port on which Plume should listen (7878 by default)
  • ROCKET_SECRET_KEY: key used to sign private cookies and for CSRF protection. If it is not set, it will be regenerated everytime you restart Plume, meaning that all your users will get disconnected. You can generate one with openssl rand -base64 32.

Diesel

Diesel, the tool we use to run migrations may be configured with the DATABASE_URL which should contain the URL of the PostgreSQL database. Otherwise, you can specify --database-url YOUR-URL everytime you run a diesel command.
