Self-hosting and Document Settings (language, currency, storage)

Hello,

We will soon have a self-hosted Grist instance and I have questions regarding the settings that can be seen when going to the “Settings” view of a document.

  • Regarding language and currency, is there a default setting available to have French and the euro selected by default for all created documents? I did find a PR with some information (Add GRIST_DEFAULT_LOCALE env var by yohanboniface · Pull Request #257 · gristlabs/grist-core · GitHub), but when I create a document on an instance with GRIST_DEFAULT_LOCALE = fr-FR, it still has English and the dollar as settings. And this is the case whether it’s from a browser that “sends” an Accept-Language: en-US or fr-FR in its request header.

  • Still in the settings, we can see the attachment storage mode, internal or external. Is there a way to have a default setting set to “external”?

  • And finally, can these settings be modified by anyone who has access to the document, and how can we limit this access?

Also on the same subject see my comment in this PR : Add GRIST_DEFAULT_LOCALE env var by yohanboniface · Pull Request #257 · gristlabs/grist-core · GitHub

Thank you

G.
