Options

From airgeddon>=9.0 a new options system is available. It is based on bash fallback substitution environment vars. Options can be set in three different ways:

1. From the options hidden file called as .airgeddonrc usually located in the same dir as the main script. For some distros like Pentoo located at /etc/airgeddonrc.

Any variable available on this file can be changed to alter the behavior of the script. Changes on this file will take effect on next launch.

• Examples

Modifying the file with these settings will disable all colorization and the ascii intro animation will be skipped on next launch.

AIRGEDDON_BASIC_COLORS=false
AIRGEDDON_SKIP_INTRO=true

2. Using "on the fly" flags on command line

The changes on the options set on the command line will apply only for that session and they will override the settings on .airgeddonrc file.

• Examples

Setting these flags on the command line, there will be no updates and 5Ghz will be disabled on next launch.

~/airgeddon# AIRGEDDON_AUTO_UPDATE=false AIRGEDDON_5GHZ_ENABLED=false bash airgeddon.sh

3. From the options menu

Any change done from the menu is applied instantly excepting a couple of them (airgeddon will remind you about a reboot of the tool required). No examples required, menus are intuitive.

AIRGEDDON_DEBUG_MODE=false

#Available values: xterm, tmux - Define the needed tool to be used for windows handling - Default value xterm
AIRGEDDON_WINDOWS_HANDLING=xterm

About tmux usage

To run airgeddon on a headless system (without X Window system) this option (AIRGEDDON_WINDOWS_HANDLING) needs to be set to tmux. Then just run airgeddon as normal and tmux will be opened by airgeddon. No need to open tmux first. To navigate tmux windows(tabs) created by airgeddon, press Ctrl+b and then n for next window or p for previous window.

Important notes

These three options AIRGEDDON_FORCE_IPTABLES, AIRGEDDON_DEVELOPMENT_MODEand AIRGEDDON_DEBUG_MODE are special. Because their purpose is a special scenario or development, they are not present on menus to be modified. They can be set only modifying the options hidden file or using command line flags.
