# Configuration Guide

DocuElevate is designed to be highly configurable through environment variables. This guide explains all available configuration options and how to use them effectively.

## Environment Variables

Configuration is primarily done through environment variables specified in a `.env` file.

### Core Settings

| **Variable**           | **Description**                                          | **Example**                    |
|------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------|
| `DATABASE_URL`         | Path/URL to the SQLite database (or other SQL backend). | `sqlite:///./app/database.db`  |
| `REDIS_URL`            | URL for Redis, used by Celery for broker & result store. | `redis://redis:6379/0`         |
| `WORKDIR`              | Working directory for the application.                  | `/workdir`                     |
| `GOTENBERG_URL`        | Gotenberg PDF processing URL.                           | `http://gotenberg:3000`        |
| `EXTERNAL_HOSTNAME`    | The external hostname for the application.             | `docuelevate.example.com`      |
| `ALLOW_FILE_DELETE`    | Enable file deletion in the web interface (`true`/`false`). | `true`                      |

### Batch Processing Settings

Control how the `/processall` endpoint handles large batches of files to prevent overwhelming downstream APIs.

| **Variable**                      | **Description**                                                                                    | **Default** |
|-----------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------|
| `PROCESSALL_THROTTLE_THRESHOLD`   | Number of files above which throttling is applied. Files <= threshold are processed immediately.  | `20`        |
| `PROCESSALL_THROTTLE_DELAY`       | Delay in seconds between each task submission when throttling is active.                          | `3`         |

**Example Usage**: When processing 25 files with default settings:
- Files are staggered: file 0 at 0s, file 1 at 3s, file 2 at 6s, etc.
- Total queue time: (25-1) × 3 = 72 seconds
- Prevents API rate limit issues and ensures smooth processing

### File Upload Size Limits

**Security Feature**: Control file upload sizes to prevent resource exhaustion attacks. See [SECURITY_AUDIT.md](../SECURITY_AUDIT.md#5-file-upload-size-limits) for security details.

| **Variable**              | **Description**                                                                                              | **Default**   |
|---------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------|
| `MAX_UPLOAD_SIZE`         | Maximum file upload size in bytes. Files exceeding this limit are rejected.                                | `1073741824` (1GB) |
| `MAX_SINGLE_FILE_SIZE`    | Optional: Maximum size for a single file chunk in bytes. Files exceeding this are split into smaller parts. | `None` (no splitting) |

**Configuration Examples:**

```bash
# Default: Allow up to 1GB uploads, no splitting
MAX_UPLOAD_SIZE=1073741824

# Conservative: 100MB max, split files over 50MB
MAX_UPLOAD_SIZE=104857600
MAX_SINGLE_FILE_SIZE=52428800

# Large files: 2GB max, split files over 500MB
MAX_UPLOAD_SIZE=2147483648
MAX_SINGLE_FILE_SIZE=524288000
```

**File Splitting Behavior:**
- When `MAX_SINGLE_FILE_SIZE` is configured and a PDF exceeds this size, it is automatically split into smaller chunks
- **IMPORTANT:** Splitting is done at **PAGE BOUNDARIES**, not by byte position
  - Uses PyPDF2 to properly parse PDF structure
  - Each output file is a complete, valid PDF containing whole pages
  - No risk of corrupted or broken PDF files
  - Pages are distributed across output files to stay under size limit
- Each chunk is processed sequentially as a separate task
- Only works for PDF files (images and office documents are converted to PDF first)
- Original file is removed after successful splitting
- Useful for very large PDFs to prevent memory issues during processing

**Use Cases:**
- **Default (1GB, no splitting)**: Suitable for most deployments handling typical documents
- **With splitting**: Recommended for servers with limited memory or when processing very large scanned documents
- **Higher limits**: For environments specifically designed to handle large architectural plans, books, or scanned archives

### IMAP Configuration

DocuElevate can monitor multiple IMAP mailboxes for document attachments. Each mailbox uses a numbered prefix (e.g., `IMAP1_`, `IMAP2_`).

| **Variable**                  | **Description**                                              | **Example**       |
|-------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------|
| `IMAP1_HOST`                  | Hostname for first IMAP server.                             | `mail.example.com`|
| `IMAP1_PORT`                  | Port number (usually `993`).                                | `993`             |
| `IMAP1_USERNAME`              | IMAP login (first mailbox).                                 | `user@example.com`|
| `IMAP1_PASSWORD`              | IMAP password (first mailbox).                              | `*******`         |
| `IMAP1_SSL`                   | Use SSL (`true`/`false`).                                   | `true`            |
| `IMAP1_POLL_INTERVAL_MINUTES` | Frequency in minutes to poll for new mail.                  | `5`               |

### Authentication

| **Variable**            | **Description**                                               |
|-------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------|
| `AUTH_ENABLED`          | Enable or disable authentication (`true`/`false`).           |
| `SESSION_SECRET`        | Secret key used to encrypt sessions and cookies (at least 32 chars). |
| `ADMIN_USERNAME`        | Username for basic authentication (when not using OIDC).     |
| `ADMIN_PASSWORD`        | Password for basic authentication (when not using OIDC).     |
| `AUTHENTIK_CLIENT_ID`   | Client ID for Authentik OAuth2/OIDC authentication.          |
| `AUTHENTIK_CLIENT_SECRET` | Client secret for Authentik OAuth2/OIDC authentication.    |
| `AUTHENTIK_CONFIG_URL`  | Configuration URL for Authentik OpenID Connect.             |
| `OAUTH_PROVIDER_NAME`   | Display name for the OAuth provider button.                  |

### Security Headers

DocuElevate supports HTTP security headers to improve browser-side security. **These headers are disabled by default** since most deployments use a reverse proxy (Traefik, Nginx, etc.) that already adds them. Enable only if deploying directly without a reverse proxy. See [Deployment Guide - Security Headers](DeploymentGuide.md#security-headers) for detailed configuration examples.

### Rate Limiting

DocuElevate implements rate limiting to protect against DoS attacks and API abuse. **Rate limiting is enabled by default** and uses Redis for distributed rate limiting across multiple workers.

#### Master Control

| **Variable**              | **Description**                                                                    | **Default** |
|---------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------|
| `RATE_LIMITING_ENABLED`   | Enable/disable rate limiting middleware. Recommended for production.               | `true`      |

#### Rate Limit Configuration

Rate limits are specified in the format `count/period`, where:
- `count` is the maximum number of requests allowed
- `period` is one of: `second`, `minute`, `hour`, `day`

| **Variable**           | **Description**                                                      | **Default**      | **Applies To**                          |
|------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------|-----------------------------------------|
| `RATE_LIMIT_DEFAULT`   | Default rate limit for all API endpoints                             | `100/minute`     | Most API endpoints                      |
| `RATE_LIMIT_UPLOAD`    | Rate limit for file upload endpoints (prevents resource exhaustion)  | `600/minute`     | `/api/ui-upload` and similar            |
| `RATE_LIMIT_AUTH`      | Stricter rate limit for authentication (prevents brute force)        | `10/minute`      | Login, authentication endpoints         |

**Note**: Processing endpoints (OCR, metadata extraction) use built-in queue throttling via Celery to control processing rates and prevent upstream API overloads. No additional API-level rate limit is configured for processing endpoints.

#### How Rate Limiting Works

1. **Per-User Tracking**: For authenticated requests, limits are enforced per user ID
2. **Per-IP Tracking**: For unauthenticated requests, limits are enforced per IP address
3. **429 Response**: When limit is exceeded, API returns `429 Too Many Requests` with `Retry-After` header
4. **Redis Backend**: Uses Redis for distributed rate limiting (required for multi-worker deployments)
5. **In-Memory Fallback**: Falls back to in-memory storage if Redis is unavailable (not recommended for production)

#### Configuration Example

```bash
# Enable rate limiting (recommended for production)
RATE_LIMITING_ENABLED=true

# Configure Redis for distributed rate limiting
REDIS_URL=redis://redis:6379/0

# Customize rate limits
RATE_LIMIT_DEFAULT=100/minute     # 100 requests per minute per user/IP
RATE_LIMIT_UPLOAD=600/minute      # 600 uploads per minute
RATE_LIMIT_AUTH=10/minute         # 10 auth attempts per minute (brute force protection)
```

#### Recommended Limits by Deployment Size

**Small Deployment (1-10 users)**:
```bash
RATE_LIMIT_DEFAULT=200/minute
RATE_LIMIT_UPLOAD=1200/minute
RATE_LIMIT_AUTH=20/minute
```

**Medium Deployment (10-100 users)**:
```bash
RATE_LIMIT_DEFAULT=100/minute
RATE_LIMIT_UPLOAD=600/minute
RATE_LIMIT_AUTH=10/minute
```

**Large Deployment (100+ users)**:
```bash
RATE_LIMIT_DEFAULT=50/minute
RATE_LIMIT_UPLOAD=300/minute
RATE_LIMIT_AUTH=5/minute
```

#### Disabling Rate Limiting (Development Only)

For development or testing, you can disable rate limiting:

```bash
RATE_LIMITING_ENABLED=false
```

**Warning**: Do not disable rate limiting in production environments.

#### Monitoring Rate Limits

When rate limits are exceeded, check application logs for details:

```
2024-02-10 16:00:00 - Rate limiting by user: testuser
2024-02-10 16:00:01 - Rate limit exceeded: 100 per 1 minute
```

For more information on handling rate-limited responses in API clients, see [API Documentation - Rate Limiting](API.md#rate-limiting).

## Security Headers Configuration

DocuElevate supports HTTP security headers to improve browser-side security. **These headers are disabled by default** since most deployments use a reverse proxy (Traefik, Nginx, etc.) that already adds them. Enable only if deploying directly without a reverse proxy. See [Deployment Guide - Security Headers](DeploymentGuide.md#security-headers) for detailed configuration examples.

#### Master Control

| **Variable**                | **Description**                                                         | **Default** |
|-----------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------|
| `SECURITY_HEADERS_ENABLED`  | Enable/disable security headers middleware. Set to `true` if deploying without reverse proxy. | `false` |

#### Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS)

Forces browsers to use HTTPS for all future requests to this domain. **Only effective over HTTPS.**

| **Variable**                   | **Description**                                              | **Default**                              |
|--------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------|
| `SECURITY_HEADER_HSTS_ENABLED` | Enable HSTS header.                                          | `true`                                   |
| `SECURITY_HEADER_HSTS_VALUE`   | HSTS header value (max-age in seconds, subdomain support).  | `max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains`   |

**Common Values:**
- `max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains` (1 year, recommended for production)
- `max-age=300` (5 minutes, for testing)
- `max-age=63072000; includeSubDomains; preload` (2 years with HSTS preload)

#### Content-Security-Policy (CSP)

Controls which resources browsers are allowed to load. Helps prevent XSS attacks and code injection.

| **Variable**                  | **Description**                                              | **Default**                              |
|-------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------|
| `SECURITY_HEADER_CSP_ENABLED` | Enable CSP header.                                           | `true`                                   |
| `SECURITY_HEADER_CSP_VALUE`   | CSP policy directives.                                       | See below                                |

**Default Policy:**
```
default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; img-src 'self' data: https:; font-src 'self' data:;
```

**Common Customizations:**
```bash
# Stricter CSP (remove 'unsafe-inline', use nonces)
SECURITY_HEADER_CSP_VALUE="default-src 'self'; script-src 'self'; style-src 'self';"

# Allow specific external domains
SECURITY_HEADER_CSP_VALUE="default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' https://cdn.example.com; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline';"
```

**Note:** The default policy includes `'unsafe-inline'` for compatibility with Tailwind CSS and inline JavaScript. For stricter security, use nonces or hashes.

#### X-Frame-Options

Prevents the page from being loaded in frames/iframes. Protects against clickjacking attacks.

| **Variable**                             | **Description**                          | **Default** |
|------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------|-------------|
| `SECURITY_HEADER_X_FRAME_OPTIONS_ENABLED` | Enable X-Frame-Options header.          | `true`      |
| `SECURITY_HEADER_X_FRAME_OPTIONS_VALUE`   | X-Frame-Options header value.           | `DENY`      |

**Valid Values:**
- `DENY` - Page cannot be displayed in a frame (most secure)
- `SAMEORIGIN` - Page can only be displayed in a frame on the same origin
- ~~`ALLOW-FROM uri`~~ - **Deprecated**: Page can only be displayed in a frame on the specified origin. This directive is deprecated in modern browsers; use CSP `frame-ancestors` directive instead.

#### X-Content-Type-Options

Prevents browsers from MIME-sniffing responses away from the declared content-type. Helps prevent XSS attacks.

| **Variable**                                    | **Description**                          | **Default** |
|-------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------|-------------|
| `SECURITY_HEADER_X_CONTENT_TYPE_OPTIONS_ENABLED` | Enable X-Content-Type-Options header.   | `true`      |

**Note:** This header is always set to `nosniff` when enabled (no configuration needed).

#### Configuration Examples

**Reverse Proxy Deployment (Default - Traefik, Nginx):**
```bash
# Headers disabled by default - reverse proxy handles them
# SECURITY_HEADERS_ENABLED=false  # Can be omitted
```

**Direct Deployment (No Reverse Proxy):**
```bash
# Enable all security headers
SECURITY_HEADERS_ENABLED=true
SECURITY_HEADER_HSTS_ENABLED=true
SECURITY_HEADER_CSP_ENABLED=true
SECURITY_HEADER_X_FRAME_OPTIONS_ENABLED=true
SECURITY_HEADER_X_CONTENT_TYPE_OPTIONS_ENABLED=true
```

**Custom Configuration:**
```bash
# Enable headers but customize values
SECURITY_HEADERS_ENABLED=true
SECURITY_HEADER_HSTS_VALUE="max-age=300"  # 5 minutes for testing
SECURITY_HEADER_X_FRAME_OPTIONS_VALUE="SAMEORIGIN"  # Allow same-origin framing
SECURITY_HEADER_CSP_VALUE="default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' https://trusted-cdn.com;"
```

### Paperless NGX

| **Variable**                        | **Description**                                                                                     |
|-------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `PAPERLESS_NGX_API_TOKEN`           | API token for Paperless NGX.                                                                        |
| `PAPERLESS_HOST`                    | Root URL for Paperless NGX (e.g. `https://paperless.example.com`).                                 |
| `PAPERLESS_CUSTOM_FIELD_ABSENDER`   | (Optional, Legacy) Name of the custom field in Paperless-ngx to store the sender ("absender") information. If set, the extracted sender will be automatically set as a custom field after document upload. Example: `Absender` or `Sender` |
| `PAPERLESS_CUSTOM_FIELDS_MAPPING`   | (Optional, Recommended) JSON mapping of extracted metadata fields to Paperless custom field names. This allows you to map multiple fields at once. Format: `{"metadata_field": "CustomFieldName", ...}`. See examples below. |

#### Custom Fields Mapping Examples

**Single Field (Legacy Method)**:
```bash
PAPERLESS_CUSTOM_FIELD_ABSENDER=Absender
```

**Multiple Fields (Recommended Method)**:
```bash
# Map multiple metadata fields to custom fields in Paperless
PAPERLESS_CUSTOM_FIELDS_MAPPING='{"absender": "Sender", "empfaenger": "Recipient", "language": "Language"}'
```

**All Available Metadata Fields**:
DocuElevate extracts the following fields that can be mapped to Paperless custom fields:
- `absender` - Sender/author of the document
- `empfaenger` - Recipient of the document
- `correspondent` - The issuing entity/company (shortened name)
- `document_type` - Type classification (Invoice, Contract, etc.)
- `language` - Document language (ISO 639-1 code, e.g., "de", "en")
- `kommunikationsart` - Communication type (German classification)
- `kommunikationskategorie` - Communication category (German classification)
- `reference_number` - Invoice/order/reference number if found
- `title` - Human-readable document title
- `tags` - List of thematic keywords (array)

**Complete Example**:
```bash
PAPERLESS_CUSTOM_FIELDS_MAPPING='{"absender": "Sender", "empfaenger": "Recipient", "correspondent": "Correspondent", "language": "Language", "reference_number": "ReferenceNumber"}'
```

**Note**: Custom fields must be created in your Paperless-ngx instance before DocuElevate can use them. The field names in the mapping (right side of the JSON) must **exactly** match the names in Paperless (case-sensitive).

## Selective Service Configuration

You can choose which document storage services to use by only including the relevant environment variables. For example, if you only want to use Dropbox, include only the Dropbox variables and omit the Paperless NGX and Nextcloud variables.

## Configuration File Location

The `.env` file should be placed at the root of the project directory. When using Docker Compose, you can reference it with the `env_file` directive in your `docker-compose.yml`.
