# Configuration Guide DocuNova 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. | `docunova.example.com` | ### IMAP Configuration DocuNova can monitor multiple IMAP mailboxes for document attachments.

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`.
