26 h2(#configure). Update config.yml
28 Edit @config.yml@ to set the keys below. The full set of configuration options are in the "Workbench section of config.yml":{{site.baseurl}}/admin/config.html
33 ExternalURL: <span class="userinput">"https://workbench.ClusterID.example.com"</span>
35 SecretKeyBase: <span class="userinput">aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa</span>
37 AutoAdminFirstUser: true
41 This application needs a secret token. Generate a new secret:
44 <pre><code>~$ <span class="userinput">ruby -e 'puts rand(2**400).to_s(36)'</span>
45 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
49 Then put that value in the @Workbench.SecretKeyBase@ field.
51 You probably want to enable @Users.AutoAdminFirstUser@ . The first user to log in when no other admin user exists will automatically be made an admin.
53 h2(#update-nginx). Update nginx configuration
55 Use a text editor to create a new file @/etc/nginx/conf.d/arvados-workbench.conf@ with the following configuration. Options that need attention are marked in <span class="userinput">red</span>.
60 server_name workbench.<span class="userinput">ClusterID.example.com</span>;
61 return 301 https://workbench.<span class="userinput">ClusterID.example.com</span>$request_uri;
