# Configuration Guide
|
||||
|
||||
This guide will help you configure ALwrity with your API keys, settings, and preferences to get the most out of your AI-powered content creation platform.
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
ALwrity requires configuration of several components to function optimally:
|
||||
|
||||
- **AI Service API Keys**: Core AI capabilities
|
||||
- **Research & SEO Services**: Enhanced content research
|
||||
- **Authentication**: User management and security
|
||||
- **Database**: Data storage and management
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Backend Configuration
|
||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
#### Core AI Services (Required)
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
DATABASE_URL=sqlite:///./alwrity.db
|
||||
```

||||
|
||||
**Benefits**:

|
||||
- Concurrent access
|
||||
- Advanced features
|
||||
|
||||
### Database Initialization
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Initialize database with default data
|
||||
python scripts/init_alpha_subscription_tiers.py
|
||||
|
||||
# Or manually initialize
|
||||
python -c "from services.database import initialize_database; initialize_database()"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
### Secret Key Generation
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Generate a secure secret key
|
||||
python -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_urlsafe(32))"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Environment Security
|
||||
|
||||
**Best Practices**:
|
||||
- Never commit `.env` files to version control
|
||||
- Use different keys for development and production
|
||||
- Rotate API keys regularly
|
||||
- Monitor API usage and costs
|
||||
|
||||
### CORS Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
The backend automatically configures CORS for development. For production, update the CORS settings in `backend/app.py`:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
app.add_middleware(
|
||||
CORSMiddleware,
|
||||
allow_origins=["https://your-domain.com"], # Production domain
|
||||
allow_credentials=True,
|
||||
allow_methods=["*"],
|
||||
allow_headers=["*"],
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
### Backend Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
```env
|
||||
# Worker processes (for production)
|
||||
WORKERS=4
|
||||
|
||||
# Request timeout
|
||||
REQUEST_TIMEOUT=30
|
||||
|
||||
# Database connection pool
|
||||
DB_POOL_SIZE=10
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Frontend Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
```env
|
||||
# Enable production optimizations
|
||||
NODE_ENV=production
|
||||
|
||||
# Bundle analyzer
|
||||
ANALYZE_BUNDLE=true
|
||||
|
||||
# Source maps (disable for production)
|
||||
GENERATE_SOURCEMAP=false
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Monitoring & Logging
|
||||
|
||||
### Logging Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
```env
|
||||

|
||||
LOG_FILE=logs/alwrity.log
|
||||
|
||||
# Enable request logging
|
||||
ENABLE_REQUEST_LOGGING=true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Health Checks
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Backend health check
|
||||
curl http://localhost:8000/health
|
||||
|
||||
# Database health check
|
||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration Validation
|
||||
|
||||
### Test Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Test backend configuration
|
||||
