Configure
=========
Review the `.env.example <https://github.com/invoiceninja/invoiceninja/blob/master/.env.example>`_ file to see additional settings.
Recurring invoices and reminder emails
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Create a cron to call the ``ninja:send-invoices`` and ``ninja:send-reminders`` Artisan commands **once daily**.
.. code-block:: shell
0 8 * * * /usr/local/bin/php /path/to/ninja/artisan ninja:send-invoices
0 8 * * * /usr/local/bin/php /path/to/ninja/artisan ninja:send-reminders
Email Queues
""""""""""""
When sending an email in the app the default behavior is to wait for the response, you can use queues to improve the perceived performance. To enable the feature add ``QUEUE_DRIVER=database`` or ``QUEUE_DRIVER=redis`` to the .env file.
.. Note:: You can process the jobs by running ``php artisan queue:listen`` or ``php artisan queue:work --daemon``.
Postmark bounce and open notifications
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Include the following two setting in the .env file, the rest of the email settings can be commented out.
.. code-block:: shell
POSTMARK_API_TOKEN=
MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS=
In your Postmark account settings make sure Open tracking is enabled and enter the following values under Settings > Outbound.
- Bounce webhook: https://invoices.example.com/hook/email_bounced
- Open webhook: https://invoices.example.com/hook/email_opened
Social/One-Click Login
""""""""""""""""""""""
Create an application in either Google, Facebook, GitHub or LinkedIn and then set the client id, secret and redirect URL in the .env file. For example:
.. code-block:: shell
GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=
GOOGLE_OAUTH_REDIRECT=http://ninja.dev/auth/google
PhantomJS
"""""""""
We use phantomjscloud.com to attach PDFs to emails sent by background processes. Check for the following line in the .env file to enable this feature or sign up to increase your daily limit.
.. code-block:: shell
PHANTOMJS_CLOUD_KEY='a-demo-key-with-low-quota-per-ip-address'
You can install PhantomJS to generate the PDF locally, to enable it add ``PHANTOMJS_BIN_PATH=/usr/local/bin/phantomjs``.
.. TIP:: To determine the path you can run ``which phantomjs`` from the command line.
If you require contacts to enter a password to see their invoice you'll need to set a value for PHANTOMJS_SECRET.
Custom Fonts
""""""""""""
Follow these steps to add custom ttf fonts: ie, Google fonts
- Create a new folder in ``public/fonts/invoice-fonts/`` and copy over the ttf files
- Run ``grunt dump_dir``
- Add the font to ``database/seeds/FontsSeeder.php``
- Run ``php artisan db:seed --class=FontsSeeder``
- Clear the cache by adding ``?clear_cache=true`` to the end of the URL
Google Map
""""""""""
You need to create a Google Maps API key for the Javascript, Geocoding and Embed APIs and then add ``GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY=your_key`` to the .env file.
Using a Proxy
"""""""""""""
If you need to set a list of trusted proxies you can add a TRUSTED_PROXIES value in the .env file. ie,
.. code-block:: shell
TRUSTED_PROXIES='10.0.0.0/8,172.16.0.0/12,192.168.0.0/16'
Stay logged in
""""""""""""""
By default the app clears the session when the browser is closed and automatically logs the user out after 8 hours.
This can be modified by setting ``REMEMBER_ME_ENABLED`` and ``AUTO_LOGOUT_SECONDS`` in the .env file.
Customizations
""""""""""""""
Our `developer guide <https://www.invoiceninja.com/knowledgebase/developer-guide/>`_ has more details about our applications codebase.
You can add currencies and date/time formats by adding records to their respective tables in the database. This data is cached, to clear it load any page with ``?clear_cache=true`` added to the end of the URL.
The JavaScript and CSS files are compiled to built files, you can recompile them by running bower install and then ``gulp``.
