Silgy configuration parameters

At startup, Silgy engine looks for silgy.conf in $SILGYDIR/bin directory. If not found, it tries current directory. If still not found, it sets the default values.

Example silgy.conf:

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# between 0...4 (most detailed)
logLevel=4
logToStdout=0
logCombined=0

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ports
httpPort=80
httpsPort=443

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# HTTPS
certFile=/etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem
certChainFile=/etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/chain.pem
keyFile=/etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# database connection details
#dbHost=                # not required if local
#dbPort=                # not required if local
dbName=mydatabase
dbUser=mysqluser
dbPassword=mysqlpassword

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# IP blacklist
blockedIPList=/home/ec2-user/web/bin/blacklist.txt

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# setting this to 1 will add _t to the log file name
# slightly different behaviour with https redirections
test=0

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Custom params
myParam1=someValue
myParam2=someOtherValue

Parameters are case sensitive.
