@section[#:tag "setup-overrides"]{How to override setup values}

The values below can be changed by overriding them in your @racket["pollen.rkt"] source file:

@itemlist[#:style 'ordered

@item{Within this file, @seclink["submodules" #:doc '(lib "scribblings/guide/guide.scrbl")]{create a submodule} called @racket[setup].}

@item{Within this submodule, use @racket[define] to make a variable with the same name as the one in @racket[pollen/setup], but without the @racket[setup:] prefix.}

@item{Assign it whatever value you like.}

@item{Repeat as needed.}

@item{(Don't forget to @racket[provide] the variables from within your @racket[setup] submodule.)}

 ]

When Pollen runs, these definitions will supersede those in @racketmodname[pollen/setup].

For instance, suppose you wanted the main export of every Pollen source file to be called @racket[van-halen] rather than @racket[doc], the extension of Pollen markup files to be @racket[.rock] rather than @racket[.pm], and the command character to be @litchar{🎸} instead of @litchar{◊}. Your @racket["pollen.rkt"] would look like this:

@fileblock["pollen.rkt" 
@codeblock{
#lang racket/base

;; ... the usual definitions and tag functions ...

(module setup racket/base
  (provide (all-defined-out))
  (define main-export 'van-halen)
  (define markup-source-ext 'rock)
  (define command-char #\🎸))
}]

Of course, you can restore the defaults simply by removing these defined values from @racket["pollen.rkt"].

Every @racket[(setup:_name)] function will resolve the current value of that variable: it will return the value from the @racket[setup] submodule (if @racket[_name] was defined there), otherwise it will return the default value (which is directly available from @racket[setup:default-]@racket[_name]). For instance, @racket[setup:default-command-char] will always be @litchar{◊}, but in the example above, @racket[(setup:command-char)] would return @litchar{🎸}.

Default separators used in decoding. The first two are initialized to @racket["\n"]; the third to @racket["\n\n"].


@defoverridable[render-cache-active boolean?]{Whether the render cache, which speeds up interactive sessions by reusing rendered versions of Pollen output files, is active. Default is active (@racket[#t]).}

@defoverridable[unpublished-path? (path? . -> . boolean?)]{Predicate that determines whether a path is omitted from @secref{raco_pollen_publish} operations. If the predicate is @racket[#t], then the path is omitted. The default, therefore, is @racket[#f].}
