Many Graphistry investigation configurations can be set through environment variables (your data/config/custom.env), in your config/pivot-db/config/config.json, or in the admin panel.
These control aspects including:
- Connector auth and defaults: Splunk, Neo4j, ...
- Layouts
- Ontology: See main custom ontology docs
- Custom pivots: See main custom pivot docs
- Prepopulated investigation steps
After editing, restart your server, or at least pivot.
For broader configuration information, see the main configuration docs. Create custom investigation templates directly from within the UI.
Set log level to debug:
Via .env:
GRAPHISTRY_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUGVia data/pivot-db/config/config.json:
{
"log": {
"level": "DEBUG"
}
}After setting these, restart your server:
- Full:
[email protected] : /var/graphistry $ docker-compose stop && docker-compose up -d - Pivot:
[email protected] : /var/graphistry $ docker-compose stop nginx pivot && docker-compose up -d
The schema specifies how to configure each setting as either an environment variable in data/config/custom.env (ex: "env": "PIVOT_INTERNAL_IP_ACCEPTLIST") or as JSON in data/pivot-db/config/config.json following the schema's hierarchy + type "format" (ex: `{"layouts": {"network": { "ipInternalAcceptList": [ "ip1", "ip2"] } }
