Reads a user list from file. 1 User per row of the and with the format username;directory;password. directory and password are optional, if none are defined for a user it will use the default values on settings (i.e. defaultdir and defaultpassword). If the used authentication type doesn't use directory or password these can be omitted.

Definition with default values:

"loginSettings": {
  "type": "fromfile",
  "settings": {
    "filename": "./myusers.txt",
    "directory": "defaultdir",
    "password": "defaultpassword"
  }
}

Definition without default values:

"loginSettings": {
  "type": "fromfile",
  "settings": {
    "filename": "./myusers.txt"
  }
}

This is a valid format of a file.

testuser1
testuser2;myspecialdirectory
testuser3;;somepassword
testuser4;specialdir;anotherpassword
testuser5;;A;d;v;a;n;c;e;d;;P;a;s;s;w;o;r;d;

testuser1 will get default directory and password, testuser3 and testuser5 will get default directory.
