+++ title = "Configuration" weight = 4 +++

The default configuration will be enough to get Gutenberg running locally but not more than that. It follows the philosophy of only paying for what you need: almost everything is turned off by default.

To change the config, edit the config.toml file. If you are not familiar with TOML, have a look at the TOML Spec to learn about it.

Only one variable - base_url - is mandatory, everything else is optional. You can find all variables used by Gutenberg config as well as their default values below:

# Base URL of the site, the only required config argument
base_url = "mywebsite.com"

# Used in RSS by default
title = ""
description = ""
# the default language, used in RSS and coming i18n
default_language = "en"

# Theme name to use
theme = ""

# Highlight all code blocks found
highlight_code = false

# Which theme to use for the code highlighting.
# See below for list of accepted values
highlight_theme = "base16-ocean-dark"

# Whether to generate a RSS feed automatically
generate_rss = false

# The number of articles to include in the RSS feed
rss_limit = 20

# The taxonomies to be rendered for that site and their configuration
# Example:
#     taxonomies = [
#       {name: "tags", rss: true}, # each tag will have its own RSS feed
#       {name: "categories", paginate_by: 5},  # 5 terms per page
#     ]
#
taxonomies = []

# Whether to compile the Sass files found in the `sass` directory
compile_sass = false

# Whether to build a search index out of the pages and section
# content for the `default_language`
build_search_index = false

# A list of glob patterns specifying asset files to ignore when
# processing the content directory.
# Defaults to none, which means all asset files are copied over to the public folder.
# Example:
#     ignored_content = ["*.{graphml,xlsx}", "temp.*"]
ignored_content = []

# Optional translation object. The key if present should be a language code
[translations]

# You can put any kind of data in there and it
# will be accessible in all templates
[extra]
