Advanced configuration

Customize CodeGate's behavior

The CodeGate container runs with defaults that work with supported LLM providers using typical settings. To customize CodeGate's application settings like provider endpoints and logging level, you can add extra configuration parameters to the container as environment variables:

docker run --name codegate -d -p 8989:8989 -p 9090:9090 \
  [-e KEY=VALUE ...] \
  --mount type=volume,src=codegate_volume,dst=/app/codegate_volume \
  --restart unless-stopped ghcr.io/stacklok/codegate
