Application Options for Civilizer

"app-options.properties" file ( which is located under the Private Home Directory ) contains application options to control various application behaviors.

civilizer.db_file_prefix

• A path to your database file.
• The default value : database/civilizer
• So the database file will be automatically created to "[path to your Private Home Directory]/database/civilizer.h2.db" by default.
• Examples:
• db/cvz ➡️ [path to your Private Home Directory]/db/cvz.h2.db
• ~/personal-data/cvz ➡️ [path to Your Home Directory]/personal-data/cvz.h2.db
• /opt/my-files/cvz ➡️/opt/my-files/cvz.h2.db
• [For Windows Users!!!]
  • Use / (slash) instead of \ (back slash). If you insist on using back slash, use \\ (double back slashes). A single \ won't work.
  • C:/personal-data/cvz ➡️ C:\personal-data\cvz.h2.db
  • ~/personal-data/cvz ➡️ (Mostly) C:\Users\[Your User Name]\personal-data\cvz.h2.db
  • Also, note that if you want to use non-English path, you might want to save app-options.properties file in UTF-8 encoding. (Use 'Save as' menu of Notepad.exe)
• It's OK that you copy this database file to other machines or a cloud file system for backups or sharing it with your other devices.
• Note that Civilizer only communicates to a single database file after it starts running.
• So managing multiple different database files will become tricky (and not so recommended).
• To switch to another database file, you need to switch this option to point to that location and restart Civilizer.

civilizer.file_box_home

• A path to File Box storage.
• The default value : files
• So the File Box directory will be automatically created to "[path to your Private Home Directory]/files" by default.

civilizer.items_per_page

• The maximum number of Fragments that a single page of a single Panel can present.
• The default value : 10.
• Increasing this value will retrieve more Fragments at a time, but your browser will consume more memory to render and manage them.

civilizer.locale

• Specifies your locale parameter.
• This option is yet to be supported.
