## Configuration

### Java heap size

You can set any Java related option using the `JAVAOPTIONS` environment
variable.

    docker run --rm -it -p 8010:8010 -e JAVAOPTIONS="-Xmx382M" docker.io/chn2guevara/languagetool

### HTTPServerConfig

Any environment variable prefixed with `LT_` is interpreted as an
[HTTPServerConfig] option.

    docker run --rm -it -p 8010:8010 -p 9301:9301 \
      -e LT_prometheusMonitoring=true \
      docker.io/chn2guevara/languagetool
    [...]

    curl -s localhost:9301 | grep -v '^\s*$\|^\s*\#'
    languagetool_check_matches_total{language="en",mode="ALL",} 1.0
    languagetool_threadpool_queue_size{pool="lt-server-thread",} 0.0
    [...]

### n-gram dataset support

To support [ngrams] you need an additional volume or directory mounted to the
`/ngrams` directory.

    docker run ... -v /foo:/ngrams ...

### Automatic download

This image can take care of the initial download of any ngram supported
language as well as updates. Mount a directory or volume to `/ngrams` and use
the `NGRAM_LANGUAGES` environment variable to pass a comma separated string
with languages:

    docker run ... -v /path/to/ngrams:/ngrams -e NGRAM_LANGUAGES="en,es" ...

### Manual download

Download and unzip any language with the commands:

    mkdir ngrams
    wget https://languagetool.org/download/ngram-data/ngrams-en-YYYYMMDD.zip
    (cd ngrams && unzip ../ngrams-en-YYYYMMDD.zip)
    rm -f ngrams-en-YYYYMMDD.zip

It's important that the directory structure ends up looking like:

    ngrams/
     en/
      ...
     es/
      ...
