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 Configuration
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 Windows 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
}
(Note the very slightly different syntax. You can use standard JSON if you wish)
