Overview

1Gateway supports two different methods to configure system parameters depending on your set up:

• Application properties – Used when running 1Gateway (on Windows or Unix). You can create or edit the application.properties file located in the root folder of your installation.

• Environment variables – Used when running 1Gateway in Docker. The application properties file inside the container cannot be edited, all configuration is instead provided as environment variables in the Docker Compose file.

note

Both methods configure the same settings — these are two different ways of passing them into 1Gateway, depending on your set up.

warning

When using Docker Compose, it’s important to remember where you installed it, since locating the files later can be tricky.
