Summary

Self-hosted instances had no documentation for the chart library's environment variables, and none for reading the library from a private mirror. This adds:

  • New page self-host/enterprise-features/chart-library: prerequisites (license, chart-type-registry flag), enabling the library, the variable reference, a "Using a private mirror" section (mirror the published tree, LIGHTDASH_CHART_REGISTRY_URL, LIGHTDASH_CHART_REGISTRY_ALLOW_PRIVATE_HOSTS, LIGHTDASH_CHART_REGISTRY_AUTHORIZATION_HEADER, internal CA via NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS, content-type rewriting by proxies), turning the library off, troubleshooting.
  • Snippet snippets/self-host/chart-library-env.mdx with the five LIGHTDASH_CHART_REGISTRY_* variables, included on the new page and in a new "Chart library" section of the environment variables reference (after "Data apps runtime").
  • Enterprise features index gains a "Chart library" entry; docs.json lists the page after data apps; the user-facing chart library page's self-hosted note links to it.

Checks

validate:docs, audit:internal-links (with mint 4.2.917) and the component baseline audit all pass locally on the changed files.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Add a self-host page for the chart library: enabling the
chart-type-registry flag, the registry environment variables, and reading
the library from a private mirror on a restricted network (private hosts,
authorization header, internal CA, content-type rewriting). Share the
variable table with the environment variables reference through a
snippet, list the page in the enterprise features index and navigation,
and link to it from the user-facing chart library page.
