The username to use when connecting to the Read the Docs API. Used for hitting the API while building the docs.

USE_SUBDOMAIN

Default: False

Whether to use subdomains in URLs on the site, or the Django-served content. When used in production, this should be True, as Nginx will serve this content. During development and other possible deployments, this might be False.

PRODUCTION_DOMAIN

Default: localhost:8000

This is the domain that gets linked to throughout the site when used in production. It depends on USE_SUBDOMAIN, otherwise it isn’t used.

MULTIPLE_APP_SERVERS

Default: None

This is a list of application servers that built documentation is copied to. This allows you to run an independent build server, and then have it rsync your built documentation across multiple front end documentation/app servers.

DEFAULT_PRIVACY_LEVEL

Default: public

What privacy projects default to having. Generally set to public. Also acts as a proxy setting for blocking certain historically insecure options, like serving generated artifacts directly from the media server.

INDEX_ONLY_LATEST

Default: None

In search, only index the latest version of a Project.

DOCUMENT_PYQUERY_PATH

Default: None

The Pyquery path to an HTML element that is the root of your document. This is used for making sure we are only searching the main content of a document.

USE_PIP_INSTALL

Default: None

Whether to use pip install . or python setup.py install when installing packages into the Virtualenv. Default is to use python setup.py install.

PUBLIC_DOMAIN

Default: None

A special domain for serving public documentation. If set, public docs will be linked here instead of the PRODUCTION_DOMAIN.

PUBLIC_DOMAIN_USES_HTTPS

Default: False

If True and PUBLIC_DOMAIN is set, that domain will default to serving public documentation over HTTPS. By default, documentation is served over HTTP.

ALLOW_ADMIN

Default: None

Whether to include django.contrib.admin in the URL’s.
