What is the environment variable for JWT secret ?

[ludetie]

Hello @Cod-e-Codes

I wanted to know what the environment variable is for the JWT secret, if it exists.
I see in the web admin panel :

I think this is the default one.
How to change it ?

Hey @ludetie
The environment variable for the JWT secret is: MARCHAT_JWT_SECRET

If not set, marchat uses the default value marchat-default-secret-change-in-production.

To set it before starting the server:

export MARCHAT_JWT_SECRET="$(openssl rand -base64 32)"

After restarting the server, the admin panel and admin web UI should display the masked secret.

Side note: the metrics tab is broken in the latest release, but building from source or waiting for the next release will fix it.
