[feature] Environment variables reference list

[larsnystrom]

Hi,

Thank you for Soketi, it looks great.

I'm struggling to find a list of all available environment variables for soketi. As an example, I'm trying to change the port soketi listens on by default. I think it listens to 127.0.0.1:6001 inside a docker container, which makes it impossible to connect to from outside the container. This is probably pretty easy to solve if I can just find the correct environment var to change. But the general problem here is that I don't know which knobs there are to tweak.

Thank you for your time.

I agree, there should be some reference list for all the configurable variables.

For your use case, it's simply PORT and you should change the -p Docker argument.

Hi,
I was looking for the same thing and found them here after some digging and studying :
https://github.com/soketi/soketi/blob/master/src/cli/cli.ts

You will have to prefix them with SOKETI_ like following in your .env file:

SOKETI_APP_MANAGER_DRIVER=appManagerDriver
SOKETI_CACHE_DRIVER='cacheDriver'
SOKETI_DEFAULT_APP_ID=sdf456ert89654

And I believe that the format follows a normal .env file.

Hope that I'm not mistaken and that helps. But still, an official list would be better.

I am struggling to understand in general how to set the environment variables correctly on Ubuntu 22.04 here https://docs.soketi.app/getting-started/environment-variables and here https://docs.soketi.app/app-management/sql-drivers/mysql

I am trying to set the MySQL environment variables on my system but I feel it keeps ignoring the settings. Or at least I don't see anything in the logs. Soketi does start successfully and I can reach the websocket ports but how I do I know it reads the environment variables I set?

I also tried to create an env file but this is also poorly documented so I don't understand what goes in the file and where it is saved. Can somebody please explain step by step how to make the settings work that are described in the documentation, especially when SQL drivers are required.

See my example I tried to set in the system variables:
