Comment on Hister: a private search engine

How do i use environment variables to make a indexer? I couldn’t get it to work
i.e. the part with directories hister.org/…/indexing-local-files-with-hister
indexer: directories: - path: ~/Documents filetypes: ['md', 'txt'] - path: ~/code/projects filetypes: ['txt'] excludes: [, 'secret/*', '*key'] - path: ~/notes patterns: ['*.org', 'doc_*', 'README']

Repeatable config options are not supported from env vars. In this case you have to mount a config file to your container. But, if you want to track local files from docker, you have to mount those files/directories anyway. I suggest to use the standalone binary release if you’d like to track local files, it is way more convenient.
