Configuration Overview

Glance uses:

• A main config file (dynacat.yml)

• Modular page YAML files (qb.yml, seerr.yml, etc.)

• A custom CSS file to change the background and add transparency to widgets (assets/global.yml)

---

Environment Variables

This configuration relies heavily on environment variables to keep the setup flexible and portable.

Required: BASE_HOST

At minimum, you must define:

BASE_HOST

This is used throughout the config to dynamically generate service URLs:

https://jelly.${BASE_HOST}/

https://qb.${BASE_HOST}/

https://seerr.${BASE_HOST}/

https://rad.${BASE_HOST}/

...

Additional Environment Variables

Several widgets require authentication or API credentials.

Examples from the main config:

username: ${AG_USER}

password: ${AG_PASSWORD}

And the custom widgets:

• qb.yml

• seerr.yml

may require variables such as:

• API keys

• Service URLs

• Usernames/passwords

• Tokens

Important

⚠️ Always check the individual YAML files (qb.yml, seerr.yml, etc.) to see which environment variables are required.
