@ -5,56 +5,141 @@ You can choose to configure CodiMD with either a
[config file](configuration-config-file.md) or with environment variables.
Environment variables are processed in
[`lib/config/environment.js`](lib/config/environment.js) - so this is the first
place to look if anything is missing not obvious from this document.
place to look if anything is missing not obvious from this document. The
default values are defined in [`lib/config/default.js`](lib/config/default.js),
in case you wonder if you even need to override it.
Environment variables take precedence over configurations from the config files.
They generally start with `CMD_` for our own options, but we also list
node-specific options you can configure this way.
