How to configure

BlueGenes supports the many methods of specifying configuration keys provided by Yogthos' config. The configuration keys listed above can be specified in uppercase or lowercase, and with dashes, underscores or periods as separators.

Configuration via config.edn files

Copy and paste config/defaults/config.edn to config/dev/config.edn or config/prod/config.edn and tweak it to match your preferences. The correct config file will be used depending on if you start BlueGenes intended for development or for production. Note that config/defaults/config.edn will be used when you build an uberjar or docker image, unless you use lein with-profile prod uberjar to bundle config/prod/config.edn instead.

Analytics (optional)

For now, the only supported statistics service is Google analytics. If you wish to use this service, configure your domain and then add your Google Analytics ID using the GOOGLE_ANALYTICS key listed above.
