This PR updates the Windows installer to support passing Libki client configuration via command-line parameters. Previously these values could only be entered manually via the GUI. This change allows for silent/headless installation, useful for automated deployment tools.

Available Command-Line Parameters:

  • /scheme=
  • /host=
  • /port=
  • /location=
  • /nodename=
  • /runonly= (Run only for this user)
  • /stoponly= (Run for all users but this)
  • /password=
  • /startupmode=
    • normal (Default)
    • shell
    • none
  • /rebootaction=
    • reboot (Default)
    • logout
    • none

Example Usage:

Libki_Client_Installer.exe /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /scheme="https" /host="10.0.0.50" /port="443" /location="Adult Computers" /nodename="Kiosk-05" /runonly="public-user" /startupmode="normal" /rebootaction="reboot" /password="hunter2"

Note:
If omitting '/VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES' the installer will not run in headless mode but will pre-populate the field values in the GUI.
