| MOTD Configuration |
| ================== |
| |
| Reloading Messages |
| ------------------ |
| |
| To reload the current messages displayed to clients, simply reload the plugin: |
| |
| ``` |
| ssh -p 29418 localhost gerrit plugin reload motd |
| ``` |
| |
| File `motd.config` |
| ------------------ |
| |
| The file `$site_path/etc/motd.config` is a Git-style config file that contains |
| the messages and subnet-based messages to be displayed to users. It contains |
| an optional global message, and optional sections for subnet-specific messages. |
| |
| Subnet-based configurations should replace the `SUBNET` portion with the |
| appropriate subnet in CIDR-style notation. |
| |
| Optionally, the parameter `${user}` will be substituted into any message as |
| the user's username. If user is unauthenticated, the substitution will not |
| be performed. |
| |
| gerrit.motd |
| : Message to be displayed to all users, regardless of their IP. |
| |
| subnet.SUBNET.motd |
| : Message to be displayed to users with an IP in range of `SUBNET`. |
