<p>The Community Solid Server is designed to be flexible
such that people can easily run different configurations.
This is useful for customizing the server with plugins,
testing applications in different setups,
or developing new parts for the server
without needing to change its base code.</p>
<p>An easy way to customize the server is
by passing parameters to the server command.
These parameters give you direct access
to some commonly used settings:</p>
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>parameter name</th>
<th>default value</th>
<th>description</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td><code>--port, -p</code></td>
<td><code>3000</code></td>
<td>The TCP port on which the server should listen.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>--baseUrl, -b</code></td>
<td><code>http://localhost:$PORT/</code></td>
<td>The base URL used internally to generate URLs. Change this if your server does not run on <code>http://localhost:$PORT/</code>.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>--socket</code></td>
<td></td>
<td>The Unix Domain Socket on which the server should listen. <code>--baseUrl</code> must be set if this option is provided</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>--loggingLevel, -l</code></td>
<td><code>info</code></td>
<td>The detail level of logging; useful for debugging problems. Use <code>debug</code> for full information.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>--config, -c</code></td>
<td><code>@css:config/default.json</code></td>
<td>The configuration(s) for the server. The default only stores data in memory; to persist to your filesystem, use <code>@css:config/file.json</code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>--rootFilePath, -f</code></td>
<td><code>./</code></td>
<td>Root folder where the server stores data, when using a file-based configuration.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>--sparqlEndpoint, -s</code></td>
<td></td>
<td>URL of the SPARQL endpoint, when using a quadstore-based configuration.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>--showStackTrace, -t</code></td>
<td>false</td>
<td>Enables detailed logging on error output.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>--podConfigJson</code></td>
<td><code>./pod-config.json</code></td>
<td>Path to the file that keeps track of dynamic Pod configurations. Only relevant when using <code>@css:config/dynamic.json</code>.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>--seededPodConfigJson</code></td>
<td></td>
<td>Path to the file that keeps track of seeded Pod configurations.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>--mainModulePath, -m</code></td>
<td></td>
<td>Path from where Components.js will start its lookup when initializing configurations.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>--workers, -w</code></td>
<td><code>1</code></td>
<td>Run in multithreaded mode using workers. Special values are <code>-1</code> (scale to <code>num_cores-1</code>), <code>0</code> (scale to <code>num_cores</code>) and 1 (singlethreaded).</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>Parameters can also be passed through environment variables.</p>
<p>They are prefixed with <code>CSS_</code> and converted from <code>camelCase</code> to <code>CAMEL_CASE</code></p>
<blockquote>
<p>eg. <code>--showStackTrace</code> =&gt; <code>CSS_SHOW_STACK_TRACE</code></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Command-line arguments will always override environment variables.</p>
