Configuration

Configuration files in ENiGMA½ are simple UTF-8 encoded HJSON files. HJSON is just like JSON but simplified and much more resilient to human error.

System Configuraiton

The main system configuration file, config.hjson both overrides defaults and provides additional configuration such as message areas. The default path is ~/.config/enigma-bbs/config.hjson though you can override this with the --config parameter when invoking main.js. Values found in core/config.js may be overridden by simply providing the object members you wish replace.

Windows note: ~ resolves to *C:\Users\YOURLOGINNAME* on modern installations, e.g. C:\Users\NuSkooler\.config\enigma-bbs\config.hjson

oputil.js

Please see oputil.js config for configuration generation options.

Example: System Name

core/config.js provides the default system name as follows:

general : {
  boardName : 'Another Fine ENiGMA½ System'
}

To override this for your own board, in config.hjson:

general: {
  boardName: Super Fancy BBS
}

Specific Areas of Interest

Archivers

External archivers can be configured for various tasks such as EchoMail bundle handling.

TODO: Document further inc. Members & defaults

Example:

archivers: {'
  zip: {
    // byte signature in HEX of ZIP archives
    sig: "504b0304"
    // offset of sig
	offset: 0
	compressCmd: "7za"
	compressArgs: [ "a", "-tzip", "{archivePath}", "{fileList}" ]
	decompressCmd: "7za"
	decompressArgs: [ "e", "-o{extractPath}", "{archivePath}" ]
  }
}

A Sample Configuration

Below is a sample config.hjson illustrating various (but certainly not all!) elements that can be configured / tweaked.

This is for illustration purposes! Do not cut & paste this configuration!

	general: {
		boardName: A Sample BBS
	}

	defaults: {
		theme: super-fancy-theme
	}

		}
	}

	scannerTossers: {
