larsks/nipapd repository overview

⁠Configuration

Most configuration variables are provided via environment variables.

• LISTEN_ADDRESS: address on which nipapd should listen [0.0.0.0]
• LISTEN_PORT: port on which nipapd should listen [1337]
• SYSLOG: true / false enable syslog? [false]
• DB_HOST: host where database is running
• DB_PORT: port of database [5432]
• DB_NAME: name of database
• DB_USERNAME: username to authenticate to database
• DB_PASSWORD: password to authenticate to database
• DB_SSLMODE: require ssl? [disable]
• NIPAP_USERNAME: name of account to create
• NIPAP_PASSWORD: password of account to create

Some values have a default, indicated in square brackets, the rest you need to fill in. If you are linking to a container running postgres, just enter the name of the container as DB_HOST and use the credentials with which you started that container.

NIPAP_USERNAME and NIPAP_PASSWORD are used to create a new account in the local auth database of nipapd so that you can later authenticate towards nipapd. It is only possible to add a single account. If you wish to add more accounts you should administrate the database outside and share it with the container via a volume.
