Settings File
EllieHub saves user preferences and metadata about bot instances in a file called config.json. This file is often located at:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\EllieHubon Windows./home/username/.config/EllieHubon Linux./Users/username/EllieHubon macOS.
Dependencies will also be stored in the same location.
Default Values
When EllieHub is executed for the first time, it creates a config.json file with the following values:
{
"BotsDirectoryUri": "C:\\Users\\user\\Documents\\EllieHubDebug\\Bots",
"BotsBackupDirectoryUri": "C:\\Users\\user\\Documents\\EllieHubDebug\\Backups",
"LogsDirectoryUri": "C:\\Users\\user\\Documents\\EllieHubDebug\\Logs",
"Theme": 0,
"AutomaticUpdates": true,
"MinimizeToTray": true,
"LogMaxSizeMb": 0.5,
"WindowSize": {
"Width": 885,
"Height": 570
},
"BotEntries": {}
}
Out of these, only AutomaticUpdates is not configurable from the UI. If you don't want EllieHub to update itself, set the value for AutomaticUpdates to false.
The initial values for BotsDirectoryUri, BotsBackupDirectoryUri, and LogsDirectoryUri will vary according to the operating system you're using.
Automatic Updates
By default, EllieHub will attempt to update itself by checking the releases page for the latest version and comparing it to its own version. If you wish to stop this behavior, set the AutomaticUpdates in the config.json file to false.
Additionally, EllieHub will never try to update itself if it has no write permission to the directory it is currently located in.
