Configuration

All settings are stored in :file:`settings.py` (as is usual for Django).

Note

After changing any of these settings, you need to restart Weblate - both WSGI and Celery processes.

In case it is run as mod_wsgi, you need to restart Apache to reload the configuration.

.. seealso::

    Please also check :doc:`Django's documentation <django:ref/settings>` for
    parameters configuring Django itself.

.. setting:: AKISMET_API_KEY

AKISMET_API_KEY

Weblate can use Akismet to check incoming anonymous suggestions for spam. Visit akismet.com to purchase an API key and associate it with a site.

.. setting:: ANONYMOUS_USER_NAME

ANONYMOUS_USER_NAME

Username of users that are not signed in.

.. seealso::

    :ref:`access-control`

.. setting:: AUDITLOG_EXPIRY

AUDITLOG_EXPIRY

.. versionadded:: 3.6

How many days Weblate should keep audit logs, which contain info about account activity.

Defaults to 180 days.

.. setting:: AUTH_LOCK_ATTEMPTS

AUTH_LOCK_ATTEMPTS

.. versionadded:: 2.14

Maximum number of failed authentication attempts before rate limiting is applied.

This is currently applied in the following locations:

  • Sign in. Deletes the account password, preventing the user from signing in without requesting a new password.
  • Password reset. Prevents new e-mails from being sent, avoiding spamming users with too many password reset attempts.

Defaults to 10.

.. seealso::

    :ref:`rate-limit`

.. setting:: AUTO_UPDATE

AUTO_UPDATE

.. versionadded:: 3.2

.. versionchanged:: 3.11

   The original on/off option was changed to differentiate which strings are accepted.

Updates all repositories on a daily basis.

Hint

Useful if you are not using :ref:`hooks` to update Weblate repositories automatically.

Note

On/off options exist in addition to string selection for backward compatibility.

Options are:

"none"
No daily updates.
"remote" also False
Only update remotes.
"full" also True
Update remotes and merge working copy.

Note

This requires that :ref:`celery` is working, and will take effect after it is restarted.

.. setting:: AVATAR_URL_PREFIX

AVATAR_URL_PREFIX

Prefix for constructing avatar URLs as: ${AVATAR_URL_PREFIX}/avatar/${MAIL_HASH}?${PARAMS}. The following services are known to work:

Gravatar (default), as per https://gravatar.com/
AVATAR_URL_PREFIX = 'https://www.gravatar.com/'
Libravatar, as per https://www.libravatar.org/
AVATAR_URL_PREFIX = 'https://www.libravatar.org/'
.. seealso::

   :ref:`production-cache-avatar`,
   :setting:`ENABLE_AVATARS`,
   :ref:`avatars`

.. setting:: AUTH_TOKEN_VALID

AUTH_TOKEN_VALID

.. versionadded:: 2.14

AUTH_PASSWORD_DAYS

.. versionadded:: 2.15

How many days will Weblate reject reusing previously used password for an user.

The checking is based on the audit log, :setting:`AUDITLOG_EXPIRY` needs to be at least same as this.

Note

Password changes made prior to Weblate 2.15 will not be accounted for in this policy.

Defaults to 180 days.

.. setting:: AUTOFIX_LIST

AUTOFIX_LIST

List of automatic fixes to apply when saving a string.

Note

Provide a fully-qualified path to the Python class that implementing the autofixer interface.

Available fixes:

weblate.trans.autofixes.whitespace.SameBookendingWhitespace
Matches whitespace at the start and end of the string to the source.
weblate.trans.autofixes.chars.ReplaceTrailingDotsWithEllipsis
Replaces trailing dots (...) if the source string has a corresponding ellipsis (…).
weblate.trans.autofixes.chars.RemoveZeroSpace
Removes zero-width space characters if the source does not contain any.
weblate.trans.autofixes.chars.RemoveControlChars
Removes control characters if the source does not contain any.

  • never

Note

Increasing the frequency is not recommended when Weblate contains thousands of components.

.. setting:: BASIC_LANGUAGES

BASIC_LANGUAGES

.. versionadded:: 4.4

List of languages to offer users for starting new translation. When not specified built-in list is used which includes all commonly used languages, but without country specific variants.

This only limits non privileged users to add unwanted languages. The project admins are still presented with full selection of languages defined in Weblate.

.. setting:: CSP_IMG_SRC
.. setting:: CSP_CONNECT_SRC
.. setting:: CSP_STYLE_SRC
.. setting:: CSP_FONT_SRC

    `Content Security Policy (CSP) <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CSP>`_

.. setting:: CHECK_LIST

CHECK_LIST

List of quality checks to perform on a translation.

Note

Provide a fully-qualified path to the Python class implementing the check interface.

Adjust the list of checks to include ones relevant to you.

All built-in :ref:`checks` are turned on by default, from where you can change these settings. By default they are commented out in :ref:`sample-configuration` so that default values are used. New checks then carried out for each new Weblate version.

You can turn off all checks:

CHECK_LIST = ()

You can turn on only a few:

CHECK_LIST = (
    "weblate.checks.chars.BeginNewlineCheck",
    "weblate.checks.chars.EndNewlineCheck",
    "weblate.checks.chars.MaxLengthCheck",
)

Note

Changing this setting only affects newly changed translations, existing checks will still be stored in the database. To also apply changes to the stored translations, run :djadmin:`updatechecks`.

.. seealso::

   :ref:`checks`, :ref:`custom-checks`

.. setting:: COMMENT_CLEANUP_DAYS

COMMENT_CLEANUP_DAYS

.. versionadded:: 3.6

Delete comments after a given number of days. Defaults to None, meaning no deletion at all.

.. setting:: CONTACT_FORM

CONTACT_FORM

.. versionadded:: 4.6

Configures how e-mail from the contact form is being sent. Choose a configuration that matches your mail server configuration.

"reply-to"
The sender is used in as :mailheader:`Reply-To`, this is the default behaviour.
"from"
The sender is used in as :mailheader:`From`. Your mail server needs to allow sending such e-mails.
.. setting:: DATA_DIR

DATA_DIR

The folder Weblate stores all data in. It contains links to VCS repositories, a fulltext index and various configuration files for external tools.

The following subdirectories usually exist:

:file:`home`
Home directory used for invoking scripts.
:file:`ssh`
SSH keys and configuration.
:file:`static`

Default location for static Django files, specified by :setting:`django:STATIC_ROOT`. See :ref:`static-files`.

The Docker container uses a separate volume for this, see :ref:`docker-volume`.

:file:`media`
Default location for Django media files, specified by :setting:`django:MEDIA_ROOT`. Contains uploaded screenshots, see :ref:`screenshots`.
:file:`vcs`
Version control repositories for translations.
:file:`backups`

:file:`celery`
Celery scheduler data, see :ref:`celery`.
:file:`fonts`:
User-uploaded fonts, see :ref:`fonts`.
:file:`cache`

Various caches, can be placed elsewhere using :setting:`CACHE_DIR`.

The Docker container uses a separate volume for this, see :ref:`docker-volume`.

Note

This directory has to be writable by Weblate. Running it as uWSGI means the www-data user should have write access to it.

The easiest way to achieve this is to make the user the owner of the directory:

sudo chown www-data:www-data -R $DATA_DIR

Defaults to /home/weblate/data, but it is expected to be configured.

Note

This is turned on by default.

.. setting:: HIDE_VERSION

HIDE_VERSION

.. versionadded:: 4.3.1

Hides version information from unauthenticated users. This also makes all documentation links point to latest version instead of the documentation matching currently installed version.

Hiding version is recommended security practice in some corporations, but it doesn't prevent attacker to figure out version by probing the behavior.

Note

This is turned off by default.

.. setting:: INTERLEDGER_PAYMENT_POINTERS

INTERLEDGER_PAYMENT_POINTERS

.. versionadded:: 4.12.1

Indicates whether Weblate is running behind a reverse proxy.

If set to True, Weblate gets IP address from a header defined by :setting:`IP_PROXY_HEADER`.

Warning

Ensure you are actually using a reverse proxy and that it sets this header, otherwise users will be able to fake the IP address.

Note

This is not on by default.

.. seealso::

    :ref:`reverse-proxy`,
    :ref:`rate-limit`,
    :setting:`IP_PROXY_HEADER`,

.. setting:: REGISTRATION_ALLOW_BACKENDS

REGISTRATION_ALLOW_BACKENDS

.. versionadded:: 4.1

List of authentication backends to allow registration from. This only limits new registrations, users can still authenticate and add authentication using all configured authentication backends.

It is recommended to keep :setting:`REGISTRATION_OPEN` enabled while limiting registration backends, otherwise users will be able to register, but Weblate will not show links to register in the user interface.

Example:

REGISTRATION_ALLOW_BACKENDS = ["azuread-oauth2", "azuread-tenant-oauth2"]

Hint

The backend names match names used in URL for authentication.

.. seealso::

    :setting:`REGISTRATION_OPEN`,
    :doc:`auth`

.. setting:: REGISTRATION_CAPTCHA

REGISTRATION_CAPTCHA

A value of either True or False indicating whether registration of new accounts is protected by CAPTCHA. This setting is optional, and a default of True will be assumed if it is not supplied.

If turned on, a CAPTCHA is added to all pages where a users enters their e-mail address:

  • New account registration.
  • Password recovery.
  • Adding e-mail to an account.
  • Contact form for users that are not signed in.
.. setting:: REGISTRATION_EMAIL_MATCH

REGISTRATION_EMAIL_MATCH

.. versionadded:: 2.17

Allows you to filter which e-mail addresses can register.

Defaults to .*, which allows any e-mail address to be registered.

You can use it to restrict registration to a single e-mail domain:

REGISTRATION_EMAIL_MATCH = r"^.*@weblate\.org$"
.. setting:: REGISTRATION_OPEN

REGISTRATION_OPEN

Whether registration of new accounts is currently permitted. This optional setting can remain the default True, or changed to False.

This setting affects built-in authentication by e-mail address or through the Python Social Auth (you can whitelist certain back-ends using :setting:`REGISTRATION_ALLOW_BACKENDS`).

Note

If using third-party authentication methods such as :ref:`ldap-auth`, it just hides the registration form, but new users might still be able to sign in and create accounts.

.. seealso::

    :setting:`REGISTRATION_ALLOW_BACKENDS`,
    :setting:`REGISTRATION_EMAIL_MATCH`,
    :doc:`auth`

.. setting:: REPOSITORY_ALERT_THRESHOLD

.. versionadded:: 4.0.2

Threshold for triggering an alert for outdated repositories, or ones that contain too many changes. Defaults to 25.

.. seealso::

   :ref:`alerts`

.. setting:: REQUIRE_LOGIN

REQUIRE_LOGIN

.. versionadded:: 4.1

This enables :setting:`LOGIN_REQUIRED_URLS` and configures REST framework to require authentication for all API endpoints.

Note

This is implemented in the :ref:`sample-configuration`. For Docker, use :envvar:`WEBLATE_REQUIRE_LOGIN`.

.. setting:: SENTRY_DSN

SENTRY_DSN

.. versionadded:: 3.9

Sentry DSN to use for :ref:`collecting-errors`.

.. seealso::

   `Django integration for Sentry <https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/python/guides/django/>`_

.. setting:: SESSION_COOKIE_AGE_AUTHENTICATED

SESSION_COOKIE_AGE_AUTHENTICATED

.. versionadded:: 4.3

Set session expiry for authenticated users. This complements :setting:`django:SESSION_COOKIE_AGE` which is used for unauthenticated users.

.. seealso::

    :setting:`django:SESSION_COOKIE_AGE`

.. setting:: SIMPLIFY_LANGUAGES

SIMPLIFY_LANGUAGES

Use simple language codes for default language/country combinations. For example an fr_FR translation will use the fr language code. This is usually the desired behavior, as it simplifies listing languages for these default combinations.

Turn this off if you want to different translations for each variant.

.. setting:: SITE_DOMAIN

SITE_DOMAIN

Configures site domain. This is necessary to produce correct absolute links in many scopes (for example activation e-mails, notifications or RSS feeds).

In case Weblate is running on non-standard port, include it here as well.

Examples:

# Production site with domain name
SITE_DOMAIN = "weblate.example.com"

# Local development with IP address and port
SITE_DOMAIN = "127.0.0.1:8000"

Note

This setting should only contain the domain name. For configuring protocol, (enabling and enforcing HTTPS) use :setting:`ENABLE_HTTPS` and for changing URL, use :setting:`URL_PREFIX`.

Hint

On a Docker container, the site domain is configured through :envvar:`WEBLATE_ALLOWED_HOSTS`.

.. seealso::

   :ref:`production-site`,
   :ref:`production-hosts`,
   :ref:`production-ssl`
   :envvar:`WEBLATE_SITE_DOMAIN`,
   :setting:`ENABLE_HTTPS`

.. setting:: SITE_TITLE

SITE_TITLE

Site title to be used for the website and sent e-mails.

.. setting:: SPECIAL_CHARS

SPECIAL_CHARS

Additional characters to include in the visual keyboard, :ref:`visual-keyboard`.

The default value is:

SPECIAL_CHARS = ("\t", "\n", "\u00a0", "…")
.. setting:: SINGLE_PROJECT

SINGLE_PROJECT

.. versionadded:: 3.8

Redirects users directly to a project or component instead of showing the dashboard. You can either set it to True and in this case it only works in case there is actually only single project in Weblate. Alternatively set the project slug, and it will redirect unconditionally to this project.

.. versionchanged:: 3.11

   The setting now also accepts a project slug, to force displaying that
   single project.

Example:

SINGLE_PROJECT = "test"
.. setting:: SSH_EXTRA_ARGS

SSH_EXTRA_ARGS

.. versionadded:: 4.9

Allows to add custom parameters when Weblate is invoking SSH. This is useful when connecting to servers using legacy encryption or other non-standard features.

For example when SSH connection in Weblate fails with Unable to negotiate with legacyhost: no matching key exchange method found. Their offer: diffie-hellman-group1-sha1, you can enable that using:

SSH_EXTRA_ARGS = "-oKexAlgorithms=+diffie-hellman-group1-sha1"

Hint

The string is evaluated by shell, so make sure to quote any whitespace and special characters.

.. seealso::

   `OpenSSH Legacy Options <https://www.openssh.com/legacy.html>`_

.. setting:: STATUS_URL

STATUS_URL

The URL where your Weblate instance reports its status.

.. setting:: SUGGESTION_CLEANUP_DAYS

SUGGESTION_CLEANUP_DAYS

.. versionadded:: 3.2.1

Automatically deletes suggestions after a given number of days. Defaults to None, meaning no deletions.

.. setting:: UPDATE_LANGUAGES

UPDATE_LANGUAGES

.. versionadded:: 4.3.2

Controls whether languages database should be updated when running database migration and is enabled by default. This setting has no effect on invocation of :djadmin:`setuplang`.

Warning

The languages display might become inconsistent with this. Weblate language definitions extend over time and it will not display language code for the defined languages.

.. seealso::

    :ref:`included-languages`

.. setting:: URL_PREFIX

URL_PREFIX

This setting allows you to run Weblate under some path (otherwise it relies on being run from the webserver root).

Note

To use this setting, you also need to configure your server to strip this prefix. For example with WSGI, this can be achieved by setting WSGIScriptAlias.

Hint

The prefix should start with a /.

Example:

URL_PREFIX = "/translations"

Note

This setting does not work with Django's built-in server, you would have to adjust :file:`urls.py` to contain this prefix.

.. setting:: VCS_API_DELAY

VCS_API_DELAY

.. versionadded:: 4.15.1

Configures minimal delay in seconds between third-party API calls in :ref:`vcs-github`, :ref:`vcs-gitlab`, :ref:`vcs-gitea`, and :ref:`vcs-pagure`.

This rate-limits API calls from Weblate to these services to avoid overloading them.

If you are being limited by secondary rate limiter at GitHub, increasing this might help.

The default value is 10.

.. setting:: VCS_BACKENDS

VCS_BACKENDS

Configuration of available VCS backends.

Note

Weblate tries to use all supported back-ends you have the tools for.

Hint

You can limit choices or add custom VCS back-ends by using this.

VCS_BACKENDS = ("weblate.vcs.git.GitRepository",)
.. seealso::

   :ref:`vcs`

.. setting:: VCS_CLONE_DEPTH

VCS_CLONE_DEPTH

.. versionadded:: 3.10.2

Configures how deep cloning of repositories Weblate should do.

Note

Currently this is only supported in :ref:`vcs-git`. By default Weblate does shallow clones of the repositories to make cloning faster and save disk space. Depending on your usage (for example when using custom :ref:`addons`), you might want to increase the depth or turn off shallow clones completely by setting this to 0.

Hint

In case you get fatal: protocol error: expected old/new/ref, got 'shallow <commit hash>' error when pushing from Weblate, turn off shallow clones completely by setting:

VCS_CLONE_DEPTH = 0
.. setting:: WEBLATE_ADDONS

WEBLATE_ADDONS

List of add-ons available for use. To use them, they have to be enabled for a given translation component. By default this includes all built-in add-ons, when extending the list you will probably want to keep existing ones enabled, for example:

WEBLATE_ADDONS = (
    # Built-in add-ons
    "weblate.addons.gettext.GenerateMoAddon",
    "weblate.addons.gettext.UpdateLinguasAddon",
    "weblate.addons.gettext.UpdateConfigureAddon",
    "weblate.addons.gettext.MsgmergeAddon",
    "weblate.addons.gettext.GettextCustomizeAddon",
    "weblate.addons.gettext.GettextAuthorComments",
    "weblate.addons.cleanup.CleanupAddon",
    "weblate.addons.consistency.LangaugeConsistencyAddon",
    "weblate.addons.discovery.DiscoveryAddon",
    "weblate.addons.flags.SourceEditAddon",
    "weblate.addons.flags.TargetEditAddon",
    "weblate.addons.flags.SameEditAddon",
    "weblate.addons.flags.BulkEditAddon",
    "weblate.addons.generate.GenerateFileAddon",
    "weblate.addons.json.JSONCustomizeAddon",
    "weblate.addons.xml.XMLCustomizeAddon",
    "weblate.addons.properties.PropertiesSortAddon",
    "weblate.addons.git.GitSquashAddon",
    "weblate.addons.removal.RemoveComments",
    "weblate.addons.removal.RemoveSuggestions",
    "weblate.addons.resx.ResxUpdateAddon",
    "weblate.addons.autotranslate.AutoTranslateAddon",
    "weblate.addons.yaml.YAMLCustomizeAddon",
    "weblate.addons.cdn.CDNJSAddon",
    # Add-on you want to include
    "weblate.addons.example.ExampleAddon",
)

Note

Removing the add-on from the list does not uninstall it from the components. Weblate will crash in that case. Please uninstall add-on from all components prior to removing it from this list.

    :ref:`addons`,
    :setting:`DEFAULT_ADDONS`

.. setting:: WEBLATE_EXPORTERS

The Weblate GPG keyring is searched for a matching key (:file:`home/.gnupg` under :setting:`DATA_DIR`). If not found, a key is generated, please check :ref:`gpg-sign` for more details.

.. seealso::

    :ref:`gpg-sign`

.. setting:: WEBSITE_REQUIRED

WEBSITE_REQUIRED

Defines whether :ref:`project-web` has to be specified when creating a project. Turned on by default as that suits public server setups.
