FAQPage Schema
How do I read NetAlertX configuration settings at runtime?▼

Use the get_setting_value function to retrieve configuration values dynamically. This allows your application to make runtime decisions based on stored settings without restarting or editing files manually.

What's the best way to manage NetAlertX configuration across multiple environments?▼

Apply environment-specific overrides using APP_CONF_OVERRIDE to standardize deployment behavior across development, staging, and production without duplicating configuration files.

How do I register default configuration settings in NetAlertX?▼

Use the ccd() function in server/initialise.py to add defaults with descriptions. This centralizes configuration documentation and ensures consistent values when settings are not explicitly overridden.

Can I manage plugin configuration through config.json manifests?▼

Yes, this Skill enables plugin configuration management via config.json manifests, allowing you to control plugin behavior declaratively alongside other NetAlertX settings.

Why should I automate configuration instead of editing files manually?▼

Automating configuration reduces misconfigurations, speeds deployments, and enables consistent settings across environments. Manual editing introduces human error and makes auditing changes difficult.
