## Set Port
Use the `-p` command to set the port. Will default to 3000 if not set
```shell
mstream -p 5050
```
## SSL
All you need to do is set the cert and key file and mStream will do the rest
```shell
mstream -c /path/to/cert.pem -k /path/to/key.pem
```
## User System
mStream can have a single user and guest. If the user is not set mStream will disable to the user system and anyone will be able to access the server
```shell
# Set User
mstream -u [username] -x [password]
# Set user and guest
mstream -u [username] -x [password] -G [guest name] -X [guest password]
```
#### secret
You can set your login secret key with the `-s` command
```
mstream -s /path/to/secret/file
```
If not set mStream will generate a random string to use as the secret key on boot. If rebooted, the secret key will be regenerated and any previous keys will no longer work
## Database Options
You can either use mStream's default database [or tap into BeetsDB.](https://github.com/beetbox/beets)
#### Beets DB
```shell
mstream -D beets -d /path/to/beets.db
```
When using Beets, mStream is put into a read only mode. mStream will not be able to write to any tables that are managed by Beets. Playlist functionality is not affected by this since playlists are stored in a separate table.
#### Built In DB
mStream can read metadata and write it's own database. By default mStream will create a database in the folder it's launched in called 'mstreamdb.lite'. You can manually set the database file with:
```shell
mstream -d /path/to/mstream.db
```
## Automatically setup port forwarding
mStream can try to automatically setup port forwarding via upnp. Use the '-t' command to try to setup port forwarding.
```
mstream -t
```
Please note that not all routers will allow this. Some routers may close this port after a period of time.
You can get around this by having mStream retry this on a regular interval
```
mstream -t -r [time in milliseconds]
mstream -t -r 100000
```
