## Configuration file
If you run Go-NEB with a `CONFIG_FILE` environment variable, it will load that file and use it for services, clients, etc. There is a [sample configuration file](config.sample.yaml) which explains all the options. In most cases, these are *direct mappings* to the corresponding HTTP API.
# API
The API is documented in sections using godoc. The sections consists of:
- An HTTP API (the path and method to use)
- A "JSON request body" (the JSON that is inside the HTTP request body)
- "Configuration" information (any additional information that is specific to what you're creating)
To form the complete API, you need to combine the HTTP API with the JSON request body, and the "Configuration" information (which is always under a JSON key called `Config`). In addition, most APIs have a `Type` which determines which piece of code to load. To find out what the right type is for the thing you're creating, check the constants defined in godoc.
## Configuring Clients
Go-NEB needs to connect as a matrix user to receive messages. Go-NEB can listen for messages as multiple matrix users. The users are configured using an HTTP API and the config is stored in the database.
