How to change Configuration Parameters?

[GregY]

Hi, I'm a Cloudron and Miniflux noob but everything is running well so far. I would like to change the POLLING_FREQUENCY configuration parameter for Miniflux.

I created the /etc/miniflux.conf file and added this single line:

POLLING_FREQUENCY=15

Then I stopped and restarted the Miniflux app. The Polling Frequency is still set to 60. The documentation says that "Environment variables override the values defined in the config file" but I'm not sure of the proper way to set the value either as an Environment variable or in a config file.

I also tried changing the value in the File Manager of the app and adding this:

# Add custom env variables here
POLLING_FREQUENCY=15

Didn't work for me.

Any ideas on how I can (correctly) modify this value? Thanks!

POLLING_FREQUENCY=15

Try export POLLING_FREQUENCY=15 instead and restart the app after that.

I have also pushed an update that renames that file from env to env.sh to make it clearer that it's a shell script and needs export keyword.

That worked. Excellent. Thank you!
