h5. Sections

The files are divided in sections. The beginning of a section is marked by a keyword indicating its title, surrounded by square brackets. Below is a detailed description of the different sections and their contents:

{anchor:config_basic}

h6. Section {{basic}}

* {{repository}}: absolute path to the working folder. If not specified, a {{Repository}} directory in the user's home will be used.
* {{export}}: absolute path to the export folder for operations. If not specified, exported files will be placed at the user's home folder.
* {{legacy}}: activates Openacast Matterhonr 1.2 and 1.3 compatibility, excluding the namespace field on the xml files from the mediapackages. (True\|False)
* {{stopdialog}}: Enable/Disable a dialog requesting confirmation to stop the recording. Defaults to True. *(True\|False)*
* {{quit}}: Shows or hides the quit button. *(True\|False)*

Example:

{anchor:config_screen}

h6. Section {{screen}}


{anchor:config_ingest}

h6. Section {{ingest}}

* {{active}}: Enables the connection to a Opencast-Matterhorn server *(True\|False)*.
* {{manua}}l: {{manual}}: Configure the method to automatically ingest the manual recordings. The possible options are: disable the automatic ingestion (none), ingest immediately after the recording (immediately) or ingest nightly all the recordings of the previous day (nightly). Defaults to 'none'. *(none\|immediately\|nightly)*
* {{scheduled}}: Configure the method to automatically ingest the scheduled recordings. The possible options are: disable the automatic ingestion (none), ingest immediately after the recording (immediately) or ingest nightly all the recordings of the previous day (nightly). Defaults to 'none'. *(none\|immediately\|nightly)*
* {{host}}: Matterhorn server URL.
* {{username}}: Name of the Galicaster unit. Defaults to the host name as defined in the OS, prepended by "GC-" if it is a Galicaster Class or "GCMobile-" if it is a Galicaster Mobile.
* {{password}}: Password for the account used to operate the Matterhorn REST endpoints service.
* {{hostname}}: Custom denomination of the galicaster unit. By default it's obtained from de operative system.
* {{workflow}}: name of the workflow used to ingest the recordings.
* {{workflow-parameters}}: pairs of parameter and value (parameter:value) to be parsed on the Matterhorn workflow, separated by semicolon.
* {{workflow-parameters}}: pairs of parameter and value (parameter:value) to be parsed on the Matterhorn workflow. If more than one parameter is required separate them with a semicolon and encase the whole string in single quotes.

Example:
password = CHANGE_ME
workflow = full
workflow-parameters = 'trimHold:true;captionHold:false;archiveOp:true'
