User Interface

knot allows customization of the user interface, including enabling or disabling Gravatar support (enabled by default) and setting a custom logo.

Configuration Example

Below is an example configuration for customizing the user interface in the knot.toml file:

[server]
public_files_path = "/files/public"

[server.ui]
enable_gravatar = true
logo_invert = true
logo_url = "/public-files/custom-logo.svg"

Explanation of Configuration

1. Static Files

   • The public_files_path option specifies the directory from which knot serves static files.
   • In this example, static files are served from /files/public and will be accessible under the URL /public-files/.

2. Gravatar Support

   • The enable_gravatar option enables or disables Gravatar support for user profiles.
   • Set to true to enable Gravatar (default) or false to disable it.

3. Custom Logo

   • The logo_url option specifies the path to the custom logo file.
   • In this example, the custom logo is set to custom-logo.svg, which should be stored in /files/public/custom-logo.svg.

4. Logo Inversion

   • The logo_invert option, when set to true, inverts the logo colors for the dark theme.
   • This ensures the logo appears correctly in both light and dark modes.
