-Configure an instance
-=====================
-
-While creating an instance, a configuration file is generated in::
-
- $ (CW_REGISTRY) / <instance> / <configuration name>.conf
-
-For example::
-
- /etc/cubicweb.d/JPL/all-in-one.conf
-
-It is a simple text file format INI. In the following description,
-each option name is prefixed with its own section and followed by its
-default value if necessary, e.g. "`<section>.<option>` [value]."
-
-
-Configuring the Web server
---------------------------
-:`web.auth-model` [cookie]:
- authentication mode, cookie or http
-:`web.realm`:
- realm of the application in http authentication mode
-:`web.http-session-time` [0]:
- period of inactivity of an HTTP session before it closes automatically.
- Duration in seconds, 0 meaning no expiration (or more exactly at the

-
-:`main.anonymous-user`, `main.anonymous-password`:
- login and password to use to connect to the RQL server with
- HTTP anonymous connection. EUser account should exist.
-
-:`main.base-url`:

-
-Https configuration
-```````````````````
-It is possible to make a site accessible for anonymous http connections
-and https for authenticated users. This requires to
-use apache (for example) for redirection and the variable `main.https-url`
-of configuration file.
-
-:Example:
-
- For an apache redirection of a site accessible via `http://localhost/demo`
- and `https://localhost/demo` and actually running on port 8080, it
- takes to the http:::
-
- RewriteCond %(REQUEST_URI) ^/demo
- RewriteRule ^/demo$ /demo/
- RewriteRule ^/demo/(.*) http://127.0.0.1:8080/$1 [L,P]
-
- and for the https:::
-
- RewriteCond %(REQUEST_URI) ^/ demo
- RewriteRule ^/demo$/demo/
- RewriteRule ^/demo/(.*) http://127.0.0.1:8080/https/$1 [L,P]
-
-
- and we will file in the all-in-one.conf of the instance:::
-
- base-url = http://localhost/demo
- https-url = `https://localhost/demo`
-
