umap/docs/settings.md

Configuration

uMap runs with Django, so any Django setting should work, if you know what you are doing.

The Django settings reference is here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.2/ref/settings/

Here are a few relevant settings for uMap.

Usage

Those settings should either:

• be in /etc/umap/umap.conf, which uMap will try to load by default
• be in a random place on your server, which is then reference with the UMAP_SETTINGS env var
• be declared as env vars directly, for simple ones (string/boolean/list)

ALLOWED_HOSTS

The hosts that uMap expects. ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['umap.mydomain.org']

Can be set through env var too: ALLOWED_HOSTS=umap.mydomain.org,u.mydomain.org

DEBUG

Set it to True for easier debugging in case of error.

EMAIL_BACKEND

Must be configured if you want uMap to send emails to anonymous users.

See Emails for more details.

ENABLE_ACCOUNT_LOGIN

Do you want users to be able to create an account directly on your uMap instance (instead of only using OAuth).

Can be set through env var: ENABLE_ACCOUNT_LOGIN=1

FROM_EMAIL

See EMAIL_BACKEND.

LANGUAGE_CODE

Set it to the default language you want. LANGUAGE_CODE = "it"

LEAFLET_LONGITUDE, LEAFLET_LATITUDE, LEAFLET_ZOOM

Default longitude, latitude and zoom for the map

MEDIA_ROOT

Where uMap should store your datalayers and icons, must be consistent with your Nginx configuration.

See Django documentation for MEDIA_ROOT

SECRET_KEY

Must be defined to something unique and secret.

Running uMap / Django with a known SECRET_KEY defeats many of Django’s security protections, and can lead to privilege escalation and remote code execution vulnerabilities.

See Django documentation for SECRET_KEY

SITE_URL

The final URL of you instance, including the protocol:

SITE_URL=http://umap.org

SHORT_SITE_URL

If you have a short domain for sharing links.

The name of the site, to be used in header and HTML title.

STATIC_ROOT

Where uMap should store static files (CSS, JS…), must be consistent with your Nginx configuration.

See Django documentation for STATIC_ROOT

USE_I18N

Default is True. Set it to False if you don't want uMap to localize the app.

USER_AUTOCOMPLETE_FIELDS

USER_DISPLAY_NAME

Advanced setting for controling which user fields will be used for displaying their name on the application, depending on which fields you collect with your OAuth configuration. For example: USER_DISPLAY_NAME = "{username}"

USER_URL_FIELD

Which field to be used in URL for user. Must be a unique field.

Eg.: USER_URL_FIELD = "pk"

UMAP_ALLOW_ANONYMOUS

Can be set through env var: UMAP_ALLOW_ANONYMOUS=1
