## Database Configuration
Admin users will need to adjust the InvenTree installation to meet the particular needs of their setup. For example, pointing to the correct database backend, or specifying a list of allowed hosts.
While many InvenTree options can be configured at "run time", there are a number of system configuration parameters which need to be set *before* running InvenTree. Admin users will need to adjust the InvenTree installation to meet the particular needs of their setup. For example, pointing to the correct database backend, or specifying a list of allowed hosts.
InvenTree system settings can be specified in a configuration file, or via environment variables.
InvenTree system settings can be specified either in a configuration file, or via environment variables.
!!! info "Environment Variables"
Settings specified using environment variables take priority
### Configuration File
To support install specific settings, a simple configuration file ``config.yaml`` is provided. This configuration file is loaded by the InvenTree server at runtime. Settings specific to a given install should be adjusted in ``config.yaml``.
The default InvenTree config file is located at `./InvenTree/config.yaml`
However, the config file can be placed elsewhere, and specified with the `INVENTREE_CONFIG_FILE` environment variable.
A short snippet from an example configuration file file is shown below. The entire default configuration file can be found on [GitHub](https://github.com/inventree/InvenTree/blob/master/InvenTree/config_template.yaml)
``` yaml
{% include 'config.yaml' %}
```
Settings specified using environment variables take priority. Values provided in the configuration file are ignored if a matching environment variable is present.
