Database provider

[bryanwac]

Welcome!

• Yes, I have searched for similar issues on GitHub and found none.

What did you do?

Even with the DATABASE_ENABLED setted to FALSE:

# Permanent data storage
DATABASE_ENABLED=false
DATABASE_PROVIDER=postgresql
DATABASE_CONNECTION_URI= postgresql://postgres:root@localhost:5432/evolution?schema=public
DATABASE_CONNECTION_DB_PREFIX_NAME=evolution

When I run the evolution container, it tries to instance the postgree DB even when its not needed.

My full config for docker:

`# Server URL - Set your application url
SERVER_URL=url

Cors - * for all or set separate by commas - ex.: 'yourdomain1.com, yourdomain2.com'

CORS_ORIGIN=*
CORS_METHODS=POST,GET,PUT,DELETE
CORS_CREDENTIALS=true

Determine the logs to be displayed

LOG_LEVEL=ERROR,WARN,DEBUG,INFO,LOG,VERBOSE,DARK,WEBHOOKS
LOG_COLOR=true

Log Baileys - "fatal" | "error" | "warn" | "info" | "debug" | "trace"

LOG_BAILEYS=error

Determine how long the instance should be deleted from memory in case of no connection.

Default time: 5 minutes

If you don't even want an expiration, enter the value false

DEL_INSTANCE=false

Temporary data storage

STORE_MESSAGES=true
STORE_MESSAGE_UP=true
STORE_CONTACTS=true

CLEAN_STORE_MESSAGE_UP=true
CLEAN_STORE_CONTACTS=true
CLEAN_STORE_CHATS=true

RABBITMQ_ENABLED=false
RABBITMQ_URI=amqp://guest:guest@rabbitmq:5672

Global Webhook Settings

Each instance's Webhook URL and events will be requested at the time it is created

Define a global webhook that will listen for enabled events from all instances

WEBHOOK_GLOBAL_URL=''
WEBHOOK_GLOBAL_ENABLED=false

With this option activated, you work with a url per webhook event, respecting the global url and the

name of each event
WEBHOOK_GLOBAL_WEBHOOK_BY_EVENTS=false

Set the events you want to hear

WEBHOOK_EVENTS_APPLICATION_STARTUP=false
WEBHOOK_EVENTS_QRCODE_UPDATED=true
WEBHOOK_EVENTS_MESSAGES_SET=true
WEBHOOK_EVENTS_MESSAGES_UPSERT=true
WEBHOOK_EVENTS_MESSAGES_UPDATE=true

Set qrcode display limit

QRCODE_LIMIT=30
QRCODE_COLOR=#198754

Defines an authentication type for the api

We recommend using the apikey because it will allow you to use a custom token,

if you use jwt, a random token will be generated and may be expired and you will have to generate a

new token

jwt or 'apikey'

AUTHENTICATION_TYPE=apikey

Define a global apikey to access all instances.

OBS: This key must be inserted in the request header to create an instance.

AUTHENTICATION_API_KEY=url
AUTHENTICATION_EXPOSE_IN_FETCH_INSTANCES=true

Set the secret key to encrypt and decrypt your token and its expiration time

seconds - 3600s ===1h | zero (0) - never expires

AUTHENTICATION_JWT_EXPIRIN_IN=0

AUTHENTICATION_JWT_SECRET='L=0YWt]b2w[WF>#>:&E`'

For others with the same problem:

Stop using: atendai/evolution-api:latest
Start using: atendai/evolution-api:v1.8.2

So your docker wont pull the latest version every update, and will keep it on LTS version

Ps: This will make ur api stop throwing the error Database provider invalid too, cz this version do not expect a DATABASE_PROVIDER on docker env
