Qizx Studio can be started:
From a graphic environment
From the command line: it supports a few option switches similar to the command-line too qizx. Here are the main ones:
-group
path
, -g
path
Specifies the location of a group of XML Libraries - or the address of a remote server.
Local Library group on disk: the path points to the root directory of the Group.
Server: the path is an HTTP URL like http://somehost:8080/qizx/api.
A default installation of a Qizx Server would end with "/qizx/api" which corresponds to the Qizx REST API connector. But this path - of course the host and the port too - depend on the configuration of the server. See the Server installation documentation for more details.
username:password
Used when connecting to a Qizx server that requires authentication. Since the password may appear on the command-line, this is not recommended for the best security. You may want to use the following switch -auth:
secret-file
Specify login credentials read from a file for better security. If authentication is required, credentials will be read from this file. The file should contain the following values:
login=admin password=xxxx
Of course the file should be protected from reading by other users.
