Team) -//===== Current Version: ===================================== -//= 20140616 -//===== Description: ========================================= -//= Global configurations found in conf/global/ -//============================================================ - -- What are global configurations? - -Global configurations are configurations that can be shared between servers, -but can also be set independently in each server. - -- How do they work? - -They work by using an include system that is available with libconfig: - - "A configuration file may "include" the contents of another file using an - include directive. This directive has the effect of inlining the contents of - the named file at the point of inclusion. - - An include directive must appear on its own line in the input. It has the - form: - - @include "filename" - - Any backslashes or double quotes in the filename must be escaped as '\\' and - '\"', respectively." - From libconfig's documentation - -So each file that is included is actually inside each one of the main -configuration files and thus a change in the first will be a change in the -latter. -Note: the @include directive is read by the server executable, so any path -should be from were it is and NOT from where the main configuration file is! - -- How do I stop using global configurations? - -To stop using global configurations is very simple, all you have to do is copy -the contents that are inside the global configuration file and put them -_exactly_ where the include directive were in the main configuration file. - -E.g. - Find in any file: - @include "conf/global/sql_connection.conf" - Replace it with: - sql_connection: { - // [INTER] You can specify the codepage to use in your mySQL tables here. - // (Note that this feature requires MySQL 4.1+) - //default_codepage: "" - - // [LOGIN] Is `userid` in account_db case sensitive? - //case_sensitive: false - - // For IPs, ideally under linux, you want to use localhost instead of 127.0.0.1 - // Under windows, you want to use 127.0.0.1. If you see a message like - // "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)" - // and you have localhost, switch it to 127.0.0.1 - db_hostname: "127.0.0.1" - db_port: 3306 - db_username: "ragnarok" - db_password: "ragnarok" - db_database: "ragnarok" - //codepage:"" - } - If the main configuration file belongs to the map server, for instance, you - don't need to include default_codepage and case_sensitive. |
