Configuring

Decidim is a Ruby on Rails library, and as such we try to follow their conventions. Please read Configuring Rails Applications.

Just as a reminder, these files are important:

  • config/database.yml

  • config/secrets.yml

Although most of these settings you can change them through Environment Variables.

You also have more settings in:

  • Decidim initializer file.

  • System panel.
