A few configuration questions #466

Closed xlconcepts closed 10 months ago

xlconcepts commented 1 year ago

The first question is am I able to pre-configure the information that goes into the generated PDF ? Secondly how would I go about modifying a few of the things in the GUI, I am fairly new to Linux, however I have a good grasp on how things work. I have Clear Linux installed along with nwipe and its dependencies and it works just fine.

Thank you for the help.

Yes, you will be able to pre-configure organisation details and operator info. Initially these can be set by editing some entries in /etc/nwipe.conf. I'm currently working on the code that enables that functionality. I may add the option to edit the logo if there is any interest in being able to do that. All other fields are as they are. If you wanted to add/remove other fields you would have to delve into the code.

Did you have something specific in mind that you wanted to change in the PDF?

Yes, you will be able to pre-configure organisation details and operator info.

And of course customer details. That will have to be done via the GUI, although if anybody has some thoughts on this then please let me know.

Thank you for the replies, I appreciate it and the work that goes into nwipe. Ill take a look into nwipe.conf, a logo options would be great, however not necessary. thank you again, looking forward to futures releases.
