The config Module

Geniwrapper Configuration Info + +This module holds configuration parameters for geniwrapper. There are two +main pieces of information that are used: the database connection and +the PLCAPI connection

get_default_dbinfo() [#]: +
Geniwrapper uses a MYSQL database to store records. This database may be +co-located with the PLC database, or it may be a separate database. The +following parameters define the connection to the database. + +Note that Geniwrapper does not access any of the PLC databases directly via +a mysql connection; All PLC databases are accessed via PLCAPI.
+
get_pl_auth() [#]: +
Geniwrapper uses a PLCAPI connection to perform operations on the registry, +such as creating and deleting slices. This connection requires an account +on the PLC server with full administrator access. + +The Url parameter controls whether the connection uses PLCAPI directly (i.e. +Geniwrapper is located on the same machine as PLC), or uses a XMLRPC connection +to the PLC machine. If you wish to use the API directly, then remove the Url +field from the dictionary.
