How can I add a config.yml file on a Docker installation?

Hi,

I have Vikunja setup in docker containers using compose. I now need to edit the config.yml to add OpenID with Authentik. But I can’t find how to access this config.yml file.

Where is it stored ? How can I have it somewhere and make it persistent ? I read Config options | Vikunja but Vikunja doesn’t seem to be catching the config.yml.

Does someone have an idea ?

Any answer is welcome. Have a great day

You’ll need to save the config file on the host and mount the config into the api container at /etc/vikunja/config.yml.

It works perfectly now, thanks ! I don’t know why the other locations like .config didn’t work but this one do.
