• "name" returns the name of your application, as specified when created (see vf).
  
  
  
• "directory" is the directory where your application resides, i.e. the application home directory (see how_vely_works).
  
  
  
• "trace-directory" is the directory where your application trace files are written (if enabled, see how_vely_works).
  
  
  
• "file-directory" is the directory where Vely file storage system is, i.e. file_storage.
  
  
  
• "db-vendor" is the database vendor name of database given by <database configuration> (as used for example in run-query). You can use it to create database specific conditions. The database vendor name can be compared against predefined string constants VV_MARIADB (for MariaDB database), VV_POSTGRES (for Postgres database) and VV_SQLITE (for SQLite database).
  
  
  
• "path" is the leading path of the URL request that can be used to build web forms and links leading back to your application. It returns the same value as p-path.
  
  
  
• "upload-size" is the maximum allowed size of an uploaded file - this is a number.
