Configuration

Open_Recall uses port 8742 by default to avoid conflicts with other applications. You can change this in two ways:

  1. Set the OPEN_RECALL_PORT environment variable:

    # Windows
    set OPEN_RECALL_PORT=9000
    
    # Linux/macOS
    export OPEN_RECALL_PORT=9000
    
  2. Edit the config.json file in the application directory:

    {
      "app": {
        "port": 9000,
        "host": "localhost",
        "debug": false
      }
    }
    

Other configuration options:

  • OPEN_RECALL_HOST: Change the host interface (default: localhost)
  • OPEN_RECALL_DEBUG: Enable debug mode (set to "true")
