This application provides Sugar Network server functionality. Such functionality provided via the Sugar Network [[Platform_Team/Sugar_Network/API|API]].
The configuration occurs based on several sources (sorted by applied order):
* Command-line arguments (configuration names equal to command-line arguments),
* {{Code|/etc/sugar-network/config}} system-wide configuration file,
* {{Code|~/.config/sugar-network/config}} user-wide configuration file.
To get the current configuration, call:
sugar-network-node config
The major configuration options are:
[node]
# path to a directory to place server data
data-root = /var/lib/sugar-network
# hostname to listen for incomming connections and using for publicly visible urls
host = 0.0.0.0
# port number to listen incomming connections
port = 8000
Note that `sugar-network-node` needs OpenSSH-5.6 or later to verify users' credentials. If you don't have such version, enable `--trust-users` to disable any verification:
[node]
# switch off user credentials check; disabling this option will require OpenSSH-5.6 or later
trust-users = True
Assuming that configuration was set properly, use the following commands to manipulate `sugar-network-node` daemon:
sugar-network-node start
sugar-network-node stop
sugar-network-node status
To run application in the foreground instead of switching to daemon mode, call:
sugar-network-node -F start
Optionally (next releases might have WebUI as a separate application), it is possible to run [[Platform_Team/Sugar_Network/Web_UI|Web UI]] client from the same process if the following configuration options were set:
[webui]
# start web application to serve Sugar Network content
webui = True
# hostname to bind
webui-host = 0.0.0.0
# address to listen for Web clients
webui-port = 5000
