###  fixconfig

Python's `json` library retains the order of data in a JSON file, which meant settings sent to the web page would be in the right order. Go's `encoding/json` and maps do not retain order, so this script opens the json file, and for each section, adds an "order" list which tells the web page in which order to display settings. 

Specify the input and output files with `-i` and `-o` respectively.

### jsontostruct

Generates a go struct from `config-base.json`. I wrote this because i was annoyed with the `ini` library, but i've since realised mapping the ini values onto it is painful.
attempt at using a config struct instead of the ini library Added script to convert config-base.json into a go struct, so that access to config values and metadata could be unified and simpler. It probably won't see any actual use though as mapping the ini into it is painful. 2020-08-15 21:07:48 +00:00			`### fixconfig`
Display settings with hacky solution to retain order Python utility included to convert config-base.json into a new version which includes lists that define the order settings should be displayed. admin.js edited to recognize this. 2020-07-31 15:09:30 +00:00
