| WHOOGLE_TOR_SERVICE | Enable/disable the Tor service on startup. Default on -- use '0' to disable. |
| WHOOGLE_TOR_USE_PASS | Use password authentication for tor control port. |
| WHOOGLE_TOR_CONF | The absolute path to the config file containing the password for the tor control port. Default: ./misc/tor/control.conf WHOOGLE_TOR_PASS must be 1 for this to work.|
| WHOOGLE_SHOW_FAVICONS | Show/hide favicons next to search result URLs. Default on. |
| WHOOGLE_UPDATE_CHECK | Enable/disable the automatic daily check for new versions of Whoogle. Default on. |
### Config Environment Variables
These environment variables allow setting default config values, but can be overwritten manually by using the home page config menu. These allow a shortcut for destroying/rebuilding an instance to the same config state every time.
NOTE: Do not include "http(s)://" when defining your redirect.
### Custom Bangs
You can create your own custom bangs. By default, bangs are stored in
`app/static/bangs`. See [`00-whoogle.json`](https://github.com/benbusby/whoogle-search/blob/main/app/static/bangs/00-whoogle.json)
for an example. These are parsed in alphabetical order with later files
overriding bangs set in earlier files, with the exception that DDG bangs
(downloaded to `app/static/bangs/bangs.json`) are always parsed first. Thus,
any custom bangs will always override the DDG ones.
### Prevent Downtime (Heroku only)
Part of the deal with Heroku's free tier is that you're allocated 550 hours/month (meaning it can't stay active 24/7), and the app is temporarily shut down after 30 minutes of inactivity. Once it becomes inactive, any Whoogle searches will still work, but it'll take an extra 10-15 seconds for the app to come back online before displaying the result, which can be frustrating if you're in a hurry.
