Can MinimServer be configured by configuration file?

[Ernst]

I use mscript <configfile> for that. The nice thing is that you can put comments in your configfile/configscript. The beginning of my config look like this:

Code:

# Directory for performances we would sell if they were on CDs
prop excludePattern=Attic

# indexTags set which tags are listed as an index by the controlpoint
# albums and tracks are automatically listed. Order is important
prop indexTags={Genre,Composer,NEW=1,Conductor,Musician,Artist}

# any tag that is used should be listed in itemTags. Otherwise they're not
# read from the sound files.
prop itemTags={Album,DisplayAlbum,AlbumArtist,Work,Title,Tracknumber,Opus,

Minimserver saves its configuration, so you do not need to specify the properties at every program start. But having such a configuration script is useful for documenting your choices and restoring everything to the previous, working, configuration when experimenting.
