match-alias.conf documentation #318

Closed brancomat closed 9 months ago

brancomat commented 10 months ago

Unless I'm missing something, the documentation for the match-alias.conf file is hard to find.

There's something in arki/matcher/parser.h

    /**
     * Read the system Matcher alias database.
     *
     * The file given in the environment variable ARKI_ALIASES is tried.
     * Else, $(sysconfdir)/arkimet/match-alias.conf is tried.
     * Else, nothing is loaded.
     */

But it will be nice if this information would show up by searching match-alias.conf in https://arpa-simc.github.io/arkimet/, along with fact that if the alias definitions differs between client and server it results in a RunTime Error (see #238)

Let me know if it contains the information you need or if there is some aspect that still needs documenting
