# Environment Variables

There are only two _optional_ environment variables to configure if
you wish to configure them at all.

* `CLIPS_DIR` : default = `/media/clips`

This is the root directory for all clips that you intend on serving; it will have a structure similar to this example one.

```
vids
├── funny
│   └── another-clip.mp4
├── life
└── serious
    └── clip.mkv
```


* `THUMBS_DIR`: default = `/media/thumbnails`

This is the root directory for all clips that you intend on serving; it will have a structure similar to this example one.

```
thumbs
├── funny
│   ├── category-thumbnail.jpg
│   └── clip.mkv.jpg
├── life
│   └── category-thumbnail.jpg
└── serious
    ├── category-thumbnail.jpg
    └── clip.mkv.jpg
```
