Configuration

PDNS Manager has a configuration file in backend/config/ConfigUser.php. All options can be changed here. PDNS Manager uses for defaults for all options, if no overriding is done in ConfigUser.php. The following page describes which options can be used, each of them adds an entry to the config dictionary.

DB Options

return [
    ...
    'db' => [
        'host' => 'localhost',
        'user' => 'user',
        'password' => 'password',
        'dbname' => 'pdnsmanager',
        'port' => 3306
    ]
    ...
];

This should be self explanatory. It stores the credentials for the database. It is required to be present. It is the only required config entry.

Logging

return [
    ...
    'logging' => [
        'level' => 'info',
        'path' => ''
    ]
    ...
];

This configures how PDNS Manager logs events.

If path is an empty string the messages end up in the PHP error log. Otherwise the string describes the path to the logfile, make sure the webserver has permissions on this file and that it is not served publicly, as it may contain sensitive data.

level sets the lowest level for which events are recorded in the log. Possible values are in ascending order debug, info, notice, warning, error, critical.

Session storage

return [
    ...
    'sessionstorage' => [
        'plugin' => 'apcu',
        'timeout' => 3600,
        'config' => null
    ]
    ...
];

This configures how sessions are handeled in PDNS Manager. For details see Session Storage.

Authentication

return [
    ...
    'authentication' => [
        'native' => [
            'plugin' => 'native',
            'prefix' => 'default',
            'config' => null
        ]
    ]
    ...
];

This configures how PDNS Manager authenticates users. For details see Authentication.

Remote API Timestampwindow

return [
    ...
    'remote' => [
        'timestampWindow' => 15
    ]
    ...
];

This configures options for the remote API. Currently the only field is timestampWindow, which configures how much the timestamp in the signature of the post API may differ from the system time, while still being valid.

Trusted Proxys

return [
    ...
    'proxys' => ['10.0.0.1']
    ...
];

This array should contain the ip addresses of proxys before the server which serves PDNS Manager. They are allowed to set X-Forwarded-For headers.
