Create an application.conf for the Tiny Editors Services

Create a configuration file to define the settings for the Tiny Editors Services.

  1. Using a text editor, create a new file named application.conf under the following directory:

    Path Operating System
    /opt/ephox/application.conf On Unix or Linux
    C:\opt\ephox\application.conf On Windows: where C is the boot drive for your system.

    Note

    Use a plain text editor to avoid inserting invalid formatting or symbols into application.conf. Do not use a rich text editor such as Microsoft Word for editing configuration files.

  2. Add the ephox.allowed-origins.origins setting.

    Attention

    The ephox.allowed-origins.origins setting is required. It must list all in-use names ( "protocol://host:port" ) for the HCL Connections™ server to allow the Tiny Editors to access the services without returning Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) errors.

    ephox {
  allowed-origins {
    origins = [
      "http://connections.example.com",
      "https://connections.example.com",

      "http://connections.example.com:9081",
      "https://connections.example.com:9444"
    ]
  }
}

  3. Add the ephox.link-checking.enabled and ephox.embed.enabled settings, along with any other application.conf settings required for link checking and media embedding.

  4. Save the configuration to application.conf.

  5. If the services have been deployed, stop and restart TinyEditorsServices to apply the configuration changes.
