How do I host Chibisafe on different port?

I want to migrate from lolisafe to
[chibisafe](https://github.com/chibisafe/chibisafe) , but I can't find
any option to change the default port it uses, which is problematic as
I already have a wordpress server using port 8000. I tried changing
the port in a few of the files, but that seemed too hacky and didn't
work anyway. In lolisafe you have your config.js and you can change
your port to whatever you want, here, not so much. Did anyone here
face the same issue and have a solution? I'm using yarn, so no docker.

First of all, ew with the names.

You have a few options. It may be configurable. Have you tried reading
the config file?

Second, if using docker. Just change the part that mentions port.

    ports:
      - 24424:8000

First parameter.

Lastly, you could edit the code.

Either way. These kinds of things are ment to run behind a reverse
proxy like caddy, nginx or cloudflare argo.

If you use the standard docker image it runs on port 24424. Shouldn’t
be a problem after all.

That's my biggest problem, there is no config file. I found about 3
instances where the port was set in code, but it seems I will have to
go through everything. Welp.

I don't wanna use docker though.

Why? Would solve your problem instantly.

I don't like docker containers and I don''t want to have to install
docker.io for a single container.

Then learn IPtables and redirect any port to any other port on your
OS.
