-Configuration Using Config file
-===
-
-You can choose to configure CodiMD with either a config file or with
-[environment variables](configuration-env-vars.md). The config file is processed
-in [`lib/config/index.js`](../lib/config/index.js) - so this is the first
-place to look if anything is missing not obvious from this document. The
-default values are defined in [`lib/config/default.js`](../lib/config/default.js),
-in case you wonder if you even need to override it.
-
-Environment variables take precedence over configurations from the config files.
-To get started, it is a good idea to take the `config.json.example` and copy it
-to `config.json` before filling in your own details.

-these are rarely used for various reasons.
-
-| variables | example values | description |
-| --------- | ------ | ----------- |
-| `defaultNotePath` | `./public/default.md` | default note file path<sup>1</sup>, empty notes will be created with this template. |
-| `dhParamPath` | `./cert/dhparam.pem` | SSL dhparam path<sup>1</sup> (only need when you set `useSSL`) |
-| `sslCAPath` | `['./cert/COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt']` | SSL ca chain<sup>1</sup> (only need when you set `useSSL`) |
-| `sslCertPath` | `./cert/codimd_io.crt` | SSL cert path<sup>1</sup> (only need when you set `useSSL`) |
-| `sslKeyPath` | `./cert/client.key` | SSL key path<sup>1</sup> (only need when you set `useSSL`) |
-| `tmpPath` | `./tmp/` | temp directory path<sup>1</sup> |
-| `docsPath` | `./public/docs` | docs directory path<sup>1</sup> |
-| `viewPath` | `./public/views` | template directory path<sup>1</sup> |

-| --------- | ------ | ----------- |
-| `domain` | `localhost` | domain name |

-| `port` | `80` | port to listen on |
-| `path` | `/var/run/codimd.sock` | path to UNIX domain socket to listen on (if specified, `host` and `port` are ignored) |
-| `protocolUseSSL` | `true` or `false` | set to use SSL protocol for resources path (only applied when domain is set) |
-| `useSSL` | `true` or `false` | set to use SSL server (if `true`, will auto turn on `protocolUseSSL`) |
-| `urlAddPort` | `true` or `false` | set to add port on callback URL (ports `80` or `443` won't be applied) (only applied when domain is set) |
-| `allowOrigin` | `['localhost']` | domain name whitelist |

-## CSP and HSTS
-
-| variables | example values | description |
-| --------- | ------ | ----------- |
-| `hsts` | `{"enable": true, "maxAgeSeconds": 31536000, "includeSubdomains": true, "preload": true}` | [HSTS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Strict_Transport_Security) options to use with HTTPS (default is the example value, max age is a year) |
-| `csp` | `{"enable": true, "directives": {"scriptSrc": "trustworthy-scripts.example.com"}, "upgradeInsecureRequests": "auto", "addDefaults": true}` | Configures [Content Security Policy](https://helmetjs.github.io/docs/csp/). Directives are passed to Helmet - see [their documentation](https://helmetjs.github.io/docs/csp/) for more information on the format. Some defaults are added to the configured values so that the application doesn't break. To disable this behaviour, set `addDefaults` to `false`. Further, if `usecdn` is on, some CDN locations are allowed too. By default (`auto`), insecure (HTTP) requests are upgraded to HTTPS via CSP if `useSSL` is on. To change this behaviour, set `upgradeInsecureRequests` to either `true` or `false`. |

-## Privacy and External Requests
-
-| variables | example values | description |
-| --------- | ------ | ----------- |
-| `allowGravatar` | `true` or `false` | set to `false` to disable [Libravatar](https://www.libravatar.org/) as profile picture source on your instance. Libravatar is a federated open-source alternative to Gravatar. |

-| `allowFreeURL` | `true` or `false` | Set to allow new note creation by accessing a nonexistent note URL. This is the behavior familiar from [Etherpad](https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite). |
-| `defaultPermission` | `freely`, `editable`, `limited`, `locked`, `protected` or `private` | Set notes default permission (only applied on signed-in users). |
-| `sessionName` | `connect.sid` | Cookie session name. |
-| `sessionLife` | `14 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000` (14 days) | Cookie session life time in milliseconds. |
