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")
