.config.json

The .config.json file stores basic configuration.

You can find a sample of it in docs/samples/config.json. You should copy that file into the vmss root as .config.json.

For guidance, here's how a config file might look like:

{
	"database":{
		"type": "mysql",
		"host": "localhost",
		"user": "superdev",
		"password": "123456",
		"database": "vmss",
		"charset": "utf8"
	},
	"env": "dev",
	"hash": "3",
	"privateKeyAlgorithm": "argon2id",
	"randomStringLength": 16,
	"uploadFolder": "uploads/",
	"autoExpireNoncesAfter": -1,
	"urlbase": "http://vmss.local",
	"queueKey": "6U3cy8dHLzLiEM",
	"allowedTypes": ["webm", "mkv", "avi", "wmv", "mov", "mp4", "m4v", "mpg", "mp2", "mpeg", "mpv", "m2v", "m4v"],
	"showWelcome": true,
	"convertActions": ["convert/mp4/1080p", "convert/mp4/720p", "convert/mp4/480p", "convert/mp4/360p", "convert/webm/1080p", "convert/webm/720p", "convert/webm/480p", "convert/webm/360p"]
}

Parsing

vmss parses .config.json with json_decode.
