Settings

Settings are configured (for now) by editing abaddon.ini
This listing is organized by section.
For example, memory_db would be set by adding memory_db = true under the line [discord]

discord

• memory_db (true or false, default false) - if true, Discord data will be kept in memory as opposed to on disk
• token (string) - Discord token used to login, this can be set from the menu
• prefetch (true or false, default false) - if true, new messages will cause the avatar and image attachments to be automatically downloaded

http

• user_agent (string) - sets the user-agent to use in HTTP requests to the Discord API (not including media/images)
• concurrent (int, default 10) - how many images can be concurrently retrieved

gui

• member_list_discriminator (true or false, default true) - show user discriminators in the member list
• emojis (true or false, default true) - resolve unicode and custom emojis to images. this needs to be false to allow GTK to render emojis by itself
• css (string) - path to the main CSS file
• animations (true or false, default true) - use animated images where available (e.g. server icons, emojis, avatars). false means static images will be used

misc
