Before this commit, when passed a malformed credentials.json the application
crashed with a stack dump. Now we catch the error and fail in a controlled way
(like already done for settings.json).
Example of exception we no longer throw:
MALFORMEDJSON
^

It's just synctactic sugar, but it is always better than executing string
concatenations in one's mind.
Do not do this with files in src/static, because we want to keep IE 11
compatibility.
skinName must be a single string (no directory separators in it) pointing to an
existing directory under /src/static/skins.
In case these conditions are not met, its value is rewritten to "no-skin".
Also, the value of skinName if sent to the client via clientVars for allowing
its use it in the browser.
This should look to consistent locations when looking for relative paths,
without depending on current working directory.
For absolute paths, nothing changes.
This is the location that is choosen by default when Etherpad starts with no
settings.json file.
It was different than the one contained into setting.json.template.
* Add scroll when it edits a line out of viewport
By default, when there is an edition of a line, which is out of the
viewport, Etherpad scrolls the minimum necessary to make this line
visible. This makes that the line stays either on the top or the bottom
of the viewport. With this commit, we add a setting to make possible to
scroll to a position x% pixels from the viewport. Besides of that, we
add a setting to make an animation of this scroll.
If nothing is changed on settings.json the Etherpad default behavior is
kept
On some erros that display a modal with "Force reconnect" button, allow
Etherpad to automatically reload pad after a few seconds. Amount of
seconds is defined on settings.json.
Still need to create tests for this feature, and implement i18n.
Currently pressing ENTER on a line that ends with ':', '[', '(' or '{'
automaticaly indents the new line with 4 spaces. The variable added by
this commit to settings.json allow an Etherpad instance to not have this
behavior.
before this path, one could only supply a relative path like:
--settings ../relative/path/settings.js
now one can also use it with absolute paths like:
--settings /abs/path/settings.json
