Hi!
To wrap up this forum topic, since it became quite old, here is a quick summary:
TLDR: For the appearance page to work, the file
manager_config.jsonsimply needs to exist in
the ‘deployment’ mapping of your OpenRemote instance. From there, it should be configurable on the appearance page. If not, please report the bug. (in a separate topic)
For deployments:
Add a manager_config.json file to the deployment folder of your docker instance.
File location of this depends on how it is deployed, but is often located in
- a relative path (
<location of docker-compose.yml file>/deployment) - or in a separate docker volume
deployment_data.
For developers using IDE:
By default, we include a manager_config.json file in the code repo under /deployment/manager/app.
However, since we serve this file using our web server, the path should be referenced as an environment variable when running npm run serve. See the developer guide here:
Be aware! Custom projects have a different relative path.
Hopefully this will help your journey. If not, feel free to open a new topic.
