# Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
The configuration is based on the file
|
||||
[defaults.hjson](https://yerbamate.dev/LemmyNet/lemmy/src/branch/main/config/defaults.hjson).
|
||||
This file also contains documentation for all the available options. To override the defaults, you
|
||||
can copy the options you want to change into your local `config.hjson` file.

The configuration is based on the file [defaults.hjson](https://yerbamate.dev/LemmyNet/lemmy/src/branch/main/config/defaults.hjson). This file also contains documentation for all the available options. To override the defaults, you can copy the options you want to change into your local `config.hjson` file.
|
||||
|
||||
To use a different `config.hjson` location than the current directory, set the environment variable `LEMMY_CONFIG_LOCATION`. Make sure you copy the `defaults.hjson` if you do this, otherwise you will be missing settings.
|
||||
The `defaults.hjson` and `config.hjson` files are located at `config/defaults.hjson` and`config/config.hjson`, respectively. To change these default locations, you can set these two environment variables:
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, you can override any config files with environment variables. These have the same
|
||||
name as the config options, and are prefixed with `LEMMY_`. For example, you can override the
|
||||
`database.password` with `LEMMY_DATABASE__POOL_SIZE=10`.
|
||||
LEMMY_CONFIG_LOCATION # config.hjson
|
||||
LEMMY_CONFIG_DEFAULTS_LOCATION # defaults.hjson
|
||||
|
||||
An additional option `LEMMY_DATABASE_URL` is available, which can be used with a PostgreSQL
|
||||
connection string like `postgres://lemmy:password@lemmy_db:5432/lemmy`, passing all connection
|
||||
details at once.
