Feature flags

Feature flags allow users to modify parameters that affect the behavior of the whole framework. Choosing the right combination of flags for an indexer project can improve performance, reduce RAM consumption, or enable useful features.

Project config

Flags related to the project are set in the advanced section of the config (most likely in dipdup.yaml).

flagdescription
early_realtimeEstablish realtime connection and start collecting messages while sync is in progress (faster, but consumes more RAM).
postpone_jobsDo not start job scheduler until all indexes reach the realtime state.
skip_version_checkDisable warning about running unstable or out-of-date DipDup version.
unsafe_sqliteDisable journaling and data integrity checks. Use only for testing.

Environment variables

DipDup uses multiple environment variables internally. They read once on process start and usually do not change during runtime. You can access them in the dipdup.env module to perform additional checks or modify the behavior of your project.
