comitup.conf - Comitup configuration file format
The comitup.conf file configures the wifi management
service comitup(8). It is located in the /etc/ directory.
- •
- ap_name: By default, comitup will create a hotspot named
comitup-<nnn>, publish an avahi-daemon(8) host entry for
comitup-<nnn>, and establish an mdns identity for
comitup-<nnn>.local. Setting this parameter will change the
comitup string with one of the users choosing. If the configuration
variable contains an <nnn> string, with one to 4
“n’s”, it will be replaced with a persistent, random
number. Similarly, the string <hostname> is replaced with the
computer’s hostname.
- •
- ap_password: If this parameter is defined in the configuration
file, then the comitup hotspot will require that any connection to the
hotspot be authenticated, using this password.
- •
- web_service: This defines a user web service to be controlled by
comitup. This service will be disabled in the HOTSPOT state
in preference of the comitup web service, and will be enabled in the
CONNECTED state. This should be the name of the systemd web
service, such as apache2.service or nginx.service. This
defaults to a null string, meaning no service is controlled.
- •
- service_name: This defines the mdns service name advertised by
comitup. This defaults to “workstation”, and will be
advertised as "_workstation._tcp".
- •
- enable_appliance_mode: By default, comitup will use multiple wifi
interfaces, if available, to connect to the local hotspot and to the
internet simultaneously. Setting this to something other than
“true” will limit comitup to the first wifi interface.
- •
- external_callback:
The path to an external script that is called on comitup state
changes. It will include a single argument, either `HOTSPOT', `CONNECTING',
or `CONNECTED'. The script will run as the owning user and group.
- •
- primary_wifi_device;
Override the default choice for the primary WiFi device to
use.
