This document describes the variables that are supported in the config/overleaf.rc
file.
This file consists of variable definitions in the form NAME=value
. Lines beginning with #
are treated as comments.
Sets the value of the --project-name
flag supplied to docker-compose
.
This is useful when running multiple instances of Overleaf on one host, as each instance can have a different project name.
- Default: overleaf
Sets the path to the directory that will be mounted into the main sharelatex
container, and used to store compile data. This can be either a full path (beginning with a /
), or relative to the base directory of the toolkit.
- Default: data/sharelatex
Sets the host port that the container will bind to. For example, if this is set to 8099
, then the web interface will be available on http://localhost:8099
.
- Default: 80
When set to true
, tells the toolkit to use the Server Pro image (quay.io/sharelatex/sharelatex-pro
), rather than the default Community Edition image (sharelatex/sharelatex
).
- Default: false
When set to true
, tells the toolkit to use the "Sibling Containers" technique
for compiling projects in separate sandboxes, using a separate docker container for
each project. See (the legacy documentation on Sandboxed Compiles)[https://github.com/sharelatex/sharelatex/wiki/Server-Pro:-sandboxed-compiles] for more information.
Requires SERVER_PRO=true
- Default: false
Sets the path to the docker socket on the host machine (the machine running the toolkit code). When SIBLING_CONTAINERS_ENABLED
is true
, the socket will be mounted into the container, to allow the compiler service to spawn new docker containers on the host.
Requires SIBLING_CONTAINERS_ENABLED=true
- Default: /var/run/docker.sock
When set to true
, tells the toolkit to create a MongoDB container, to host the database.
When set to false
, this container will not be created, and the system will use the MongoDB database specified by MONGO_URL
instead.
- Default: true
Specifies the MongoDB connection URL to use when MONGO_ENABLED
is false
- Default: not set
Sets the path to the directory that will be mounted into the mongo
container, and used to store the MongoDB database. This can be either a full path (beginning with a /
), or relative to the base directory of the toolkit. This option only affects the local mongo
container that is created when MONGO_ENABLED
is true
.
- Default: data/mongo
When set to true
, tells the toolkit to create a Redis container, to host the redis database.
When set to false
, this container will not be created, and the system will use the Redis database specified by REDIS_HOST
and REDIS_PORT
instead.
- Default: true
Specifies the Redis host to use when REDIS_ENABLED
is false
- Default: not set
Specifies the Redis port to use when REDIS_ENABLED
is false
- Default: not set
Sets the path to the directory that will be mounted into the redis
container, and used to store the Redis database. This can be either a full path (beginning with a /
), or relative to the base directory of the toolkit. This option only affects the local redis
container that is created when REDIS_ENABLED
is true
.
- Default: data/redis
