Custom settings

You can change the default settings by creating a settings.json file in runtipi/state/settings.json. This file makes your changes persist across restarts. Example file:

{ "dnsIp": "9.9.9.9", "domain": "mydomain.com" }

Be sure that the content is a valid JSON format. You can easily check for validity in an online tool like JSONLint
