# Configuration
Configure MedAssist with environment variables in `.env`. Start from `.env.example`.
## General
| Variable | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|-------------|
| `PUID` | `1000` | User ID for container file permissions |
| `PGID` | `1000` | Group ID for container file permissions |
| `PORT` | `3000` | Backend API port |
| `CORS_ORIGINS` | `http://localhost:4174` | Allowed origins for CORS in the Docker Compose quickstart; local Vite development commonly uses `http://localhost:5173` or `http://localhost:4173` |
| `TZ` | `Europe/Berlin` | Server default timezone for scheduled reminders |
| `PUBLIC_APP_URL` | — | Public base URL for notification action and share links. Strongly recommended for any deployment used from another device; do not point this to `localhost` or an internal Docker hostname. Local Vite development also allows this hostname automatically. |
| `LOG_LEVEL` | `info` | Log level: `debug`, `info`, `warn`, `error`, or `silent` |
| `RATE_LIMIT_MAX` | `100` | Maximum requests per minute per IP |
| `OPENAPI_DOCS_ENABLED` | `auto` | Explicitly enable or disable `/docs` and `/docs/json` |
API docs behavior:
- If `OPENAPI_DOCS_ENABLED` is unset, docs are enabled outside production and disabled in production.
- `OPENAPI_DOCS_ENABLED=true` enables `/docs` and `/docs/json`.
- `OPENAPI_DOCS_ENABLED=false` disables the docs only.
`CORS_ORIGINS` note:
- The `.env.example` file is optimized for the Docker Compose quickstart, where the frontend runs on `http://localhost:4174`.
- Local frontend development uses the Vite dev server instead, so the backend schema defaults cover `http://localhost:5173` and `http://localhost:4173`.
- If you use a custom hostname or reverse proxy, include that origin in `CORS_ORIGINS`.
## Authentication
| Variable | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|-------------|
| `AUTH_ENABLED` | `false` | Enable user authentication |
| `REGISTRATION_ENABLED` | `false` | Allow new user registrations |
| `FORM_LOGIN_ENABLED` | `true` | Enable username/password login |
| `JWT_SECRET` | — | Access token signing key; required when auth is enabled |
| `REFRESH_SECRET` | — | Refresh token signing key; required when auth is enabled |
| `COOKIE_SECRET` | — | Cookie signing key; required when auth is enabled |
| `ACCESS_TOKEN_TTL_MINUTES` | `15` | Access token lifetime |
| `REFRESH_TOKEN_TTL_DAYS` | `7` | Refresh token lifetime |
Generate secrets with `openssl rand -hex 32`.
## API Keys
When `AUTH_ENABLED=true`, authenticated users can create API keys and call protected endpoints with:
```text
Authorization: Bearer ma_...
```
Available scopes:
- `read`: read-only access (`GET`, `HEAD`, `OPTIONS`)
- `write`: read and write access
Notes:
- The token is shown only once after creation.
- Creating a new key deactivates previously active keys for the same user.
- API keys are stored hashed in the database.
API reference:
- Interactive docs: `/docs`
- OpenAPI JSON: `/docs/json`
- Key management endpoints:
- `GET /auth/api-keys`
- `POST /auth/api-keys`
- `DELETE /auth/api-keys/:id`
## OIDC / SSO
| Variable | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|-------------|
| `OIDC_ENABLED` | `false` | Enable OIDC authentication |
| `OIDC_ISSUER_URL` | — | OIDC provider URL |
| `OIDC_CLIENT_ID` | — | OIDC client ID |
| `OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET` | — | OIDC client secret |
| `OIDC_REDIRECT_URI` | — | OIDC callback URL |
| `OIDC_SCOPES` | `openid profile email` | Requested scopes |
| `OIDC_USERNAME_CLAIM` | `preferred_username` | Username claim |
| `OIDC_AUTO_CREATE_USERS` | `true` | Auto-create users on first SSO login |
| `OIDC_PROVIDER_NAME` | `SSO` | Login button label |
## Email (SMTP)
| Variable | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|-------------|
| `SMTP_HOST` | — | SMTP server hostname |
| `SMTP_PORT` | `587` | SMTP server port |
| `SMTP_USER` | — | SMTP username |
| `SMTP_PASS` | — | SMTP password |
| `SMTP_TOKEN` | — | OAuth2 or app token; takes precedence over `SMTP_PASS` |
| `SMTP_FROM` | — | Sender email address |
| `SMTP_SECURE` | `false` | Use TLS |
## Reminders
| Variable | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|-------------|
| `REMINDER_DAYS_BEFORE` | `7` | Days before stock runs out to send reminder |
| `REMINDER_HOUR` | `6` | Hour to send daily reminders (24h format) |
| `REMINDER_MINUTES_BEFORE` | `15` | Minutes before intake to send reminder |
| `EXPIRY_WARNING_DAYS` | `30` | Days before expiry warning |
Reminder timing uses IANA timezones. `TZ` is the server default. Users can override it in Settings.
These values are runtime defaults. User-specific settings can override reminder behavior after first save.
## Push Notifications
Push notification setup, provider support, and URL examples are documented in [PUSH_NOTIFICATIONS.md](PUSH_NOTIFICATIONS.md).
Recommended provider: `ntfy`, especially for intake reminders with direct actions.
Notification action and share links should use `PUBLIC_APP_URL` as their reachable base URL. For self-hosted setups, this should normally be your externally reachable HTTPS address, for example `https://med.example.com`.
If `PUBLIC_APP_URL` is missing in a remote deployment, reminder links can still be generated from local origins that are unreachable from phones or external browsers.
## Default User Settings
Default values for newly created users are documented in [DEFAULT_USER_SETTINGS.md](DEFAULT_USER_SETTINGS.md).
