Configuration Overview

ZəkaHouse uses environment variables as its primary configuration method. When you run zeka-learnhouse setup, the CLI generates a .env file with all the necessary variables based on your choices.

Configuration Methods

ZəkaHouse supports two configuration methods:

Environment variables (via .env file) — the primary and recommended method
Configuration file (config.yaml) — an alternative for advanced users

If both are present, environment variables always take precedence over values defined in config.yaml.

Editing Configuration

You can modify most configuration interactively using the CLI:

zeka-learnhouse env

Alternatively, edit the .env file directly and restart services:

zeka-learnhouse stop && zeka-learnhouse start
