1 # Configuration Cheat Sheet
2
3 This is a cheat sheet for Pleroma configuration file, any setting possible to configure should be listed here.
4
5 For OTP installations the configuration is typically stored in `/etc/pleroma/config.exs`.
6
7 For from source installations Pleroma configuration works by first importing the base config `config/config.exs`, then overriding it by the environment config `config/$MIX_ENV.exs` and then overriding it by user config `config/$MIX_ENV.secret.exs`. In from source installations you should always make the changes to the user config and NEVER to the base config to avoid breakages and merge conflicts. So for production you change/add configuration to `config/prod.secret.exs`.
8
9 To add configuration to your config file, you can copy it from the base config. The latest version of it can be viewed [here](https://git.pleroma.social/pleroma/pleroma/blob/develop/config/config.exs). You can also use this file if you don't know how an option is supposed to be formatted.

363
364
365 ### :rate_limit
366
367 !!! note
368 If your instance is behind a reverse proxy ensure [`Pleroma.Plugs.RemoteIp`](#pleroma-plugs-remoteip) is enabled (it is enabled by default).
369
370 A keyword list of rate limiters where a key is a limiter name and value is the limiter configuration. The basic configuration is a tuple where:
371
372 * The first element: `scale` (Integer). The time scale in milliseconds.
373 * The second element: `limit` (Integer). How many requests to limit in the time scale provided.
374
375 It is also possible to have different limits for unauthenticated and authenticated users: the keyword value must be a list of two tuples where the first one is a config for unauthenticated users and the second one is for authenticated.
376
377 For example:
378
379 ```elixir
380 config :pleroma, :rate_limit,
381 authentication: {60_000, 15},
382 search: [{1000, 10}, {1000, 30}]
383 ```
384
385 Means that:
386
387 1. In 60 seconds, 15 authentication attempts can be performed from the same IP address.
388 2. In 1 second, 10 search requests can be performed from the same IP adress by unauthenticated users, while authenticated users can perform 30 search requests per second.
389
390 Supported rate limiters:
391
392 * `:search` - Account/Status search.
393 * `:timeline` - Timeline requests (each timeline has it's own limiter).
394 * `:app_account_creation` - Account registration from the API.

410 * `:activity_pub` - activity pub routes (except question activities). Defaults to `nil` (no expiration).
411 * `:activity_pub_question` - activity pub routes (question activities). Defaults to `30_000` (30 seconds).
412
413 ## HTTP client
414
415 ### :http
416
417 * `proxy_url`: an upstream proxy to fetch posts and/or media with, (default: `nil`)
418 * `send_user_agent`: should we include a user agent with HTTP requests? (default: `true`)
419 * `user_agent`: what user agent should we use? (default: `:default`), must be string or `:default`
420 * `adapter`: array of adapter options
421
422 ### :hackney_pools
423
424 Advanced. Tweaks Hackney (http client) connections pools.
425
426 There's three pools used:
427
428 * `:federation` for the federation jobs.
429 You may want this pool max_connections to be at least equal to the number of federator jobs + retry queue jobs.
430 * `:media` for rich media, media proxy
431 * `:upload` for uploaded media (if using a remote uploader and `proxy_remote: true`)
432
433 For each pool, the options are:
434
435 * `max_connections` - how much connections a pool can hold
436 * `timeout` - retention duration for connections
437
438
439 ### :connections_pool
440
441 *For `gun` adapter*
442
443 Advanced settings for connections pool. Pool with opened connections. These connections can be reused in worker pools.
444
445 For big instances it's recommended to increase `config :pleroma, :connections_pool, max_connections: 500` up to 500-1000.
446 It will increase memory usage, but federation would work faster.
447
448 * `:checkin_timeout` - timeout to checkin connection from pool. Default: 250ms.
449 * `:max_connections` - maximum number of connections in the pool. Default: 250 connections.
450 * `:retry` - number of retries, while `gun` will try to reconnect if connection goes down. Default: 1.
451 * `:retry_timeout` - time between retries when `gun` will try to reconnect in milliseconds. Default: 1000ms.
452 * `:await_up_timeout` - timeout while `gun` will wait until connection is up. Default: 5000ms.
453
454 ### :pools
455
456 *For `gun` adapter*
457
458 Advanced settings for workers pools.
459
460 There are four pools used:
461
462 * `:federation` for the federation jobs.
463 You may want this pool max_connections to be at least equal to the number of federator jobs + retry queue jobs.
464 * `:media` for rich media, media proxy
465 * `:upload` for uploaded media (if using a remote uploader and `proxy_remote: true`)
466 * `:default` for other requests
467
468 For each pool, the options are:
469
470 * `:size` - how much workers the pool can hold
471 * `:timeout` - timeout while `gun` will wait for response
472 * `:max_overflow` - additional workers if pool is under load
473
474
475 ## Captcha
476
477 ### Pleroma.Captcha
478
479 * `enabled`: Whether the captcha should be shown on registration.

486
487 A built-in captcha provider. Enabled by default.
488
489 #### Pleroma.Captcha.Kocaptcha
490
491 Kocaptcha is a very simple captcha service with a single API endpoint,
492 the source code is here: https://github.com/koto-bank/kocaptcha. The default endpoint
493 `https://captcha.kotobank.ch` is hosted by the developer.
494
495 * `endpoint`: the Kocaptcha endpoint to use.
496

498
499 ### Pleroma.Upload
500 * `uploader`: Which one of the [uploaders](#uploaders) to use.
501 * `filters`: List of [upload filters](#upload-filters) to use.
502 * `link_name`: When enabled Pleroma will add a `name` parameter to the url of the upload, for example `https://instance.tld/media/corndog.png?name=corndog.png`. This is needed to provide the correct filename in Content-Disposition headers when using filters like `Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Dedupe`
503 * `base_url`: The base URL to access a user-uploaded file. Useful when you want to proxy the media files via another host.
504 * `proxy_remote`: If you're using a remote uploader, Pleroma will proxy media requests instead of redirecting to it.
505 * `proxy_opts`: Proxy options, see `Pleroma.ReverseProxy` documentation.
506 * `filename_display_max_length`: Set max length of a filename to display. 0 = no limit. Default: 30.

518 * `public_endpoint`: S3 endpoint that the user finally accesses(ex. "https://s3.dualstack.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com")
519 * `truncated_namespace`: If you use S3 compatible service such as Digital Ocean Spaces or CDN, set folder name or "" etc.
520 For example, when using CDN to S3 virtual host format, set "".
521 At this time, write CNAME to CDN in public_endpoint.
522 * `streaming_enabled`: Enable streaming uploads, when enabled the file will be sent to the server in chunks as it's being read. This may be unsupported by some providers, try disabling this if you have upload problems.
523
524
525 ### Upload filters
526
527 #### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Mogrify
528
529 * `args`: List of actions for the `mogrify` command like `"strip"` or `["strip", "auto-orient", {"implode", "1"}]`.

533 No specific configuration.
534
535 #### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.AnonymizeFilename
536
537 This filter replaces the filename (not the path) of an upload. For complete obfuscation, add
538 `Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Dedupe` before AnonymizeFilename.
539
540 * `text`: Text to replace filenames in links. If empty, `{random}.extension` will be used. You can get the original filename extension by using `{extension}`, for example `custom-file-name.{extension}`.

553 enabled: true,
554 adapter: Swoosh.Adapters.Sendgrid,
555 api_key: "YOUR_API_KEY"
556 ```
557
558 An example for SMTP adapter:

592
593 ## Background jobs
594
595 ### Oban
596
597 [Oban](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban) asynchronous job processor configuration.
598
599 Configuration options described in [Oban readme](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban#usage):
600
601 * `repo` - app's Ecto repo (`Pleroma.Repo`)
602 * `verbose` - logs verbosity
603 * `prune` - non-retryable jobs [pruning settings](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban#pruning) (`:disabled` / `{:maxlen, value}` / `{:maxage, value}`)
604 * `queues` - job queues (see below)
605 * `crontab` - periodic jobs, see [`Oban.Cron`](#obancron)
606
607 Pleroma has the following queues:
608
609 * `activity_expiration` - Activity expiration
610 * `federator_outgoing` - Outgoing federation
611 * `federator_incoming` - Incoming federation
612 * `mailer` - Email sender, see [`Pleroma.Emails.Mailer`](#pleromaemailsmailer)
613 * `transmogrifier` - Transmogrifier
614 * `web_push` - Web push notifications
615 * `scheduled_activities` - Scheduled activities, see [`Pleroma.ScheduledActivity`](#pleromascheduledactivity)
616
617 #### Oban.Cron
618
619 Pleroma has these periodic job workers:
620
621 `Pleroma.Workers.Cron.ClearOauthTokenWorker` - a job worker to cleanup expired oauth tokens.
622
623 Example:
624
625 ```elixir
626 config :pleroma, Oban,
627 repo: Pleroma.Repo,
628 verbose: false,
629 prune: {:maxlen, 1500},
630 queues: [
631 federator_incoming: 50,
632 federator_outgoing: 50
633 ],
634 crontab: [
635 {"0 0 * * *", Pleroma.Workers.Cron.ClearOauthTokenWorker}
636 ]
637 ```
638
639 This config contains two queues: `federator_incoming` and `federator_outgoing`. Both have the number of max concurrent jobs set to `50`.
640
641 #### Migrating `pleroma_job_queue` settings
642
643 `config :pleroma_job_queue, :queues` is replaced by `config :pleroma, Oban, :queues` and uses the same format (keys are queues' names, values are max concurrent jobs numbers).
644
645 ### :workers
646
647 Includes custom worker options not interpretable directly by `Oban`.
648
649 * `retries` — keyword lists where keys are `Oban` queues (see above) and values are numbers of max attempts for failed jobs.
650
651 Example:
652
653 ```elixir
654 config :pleroma, :workers,
655 retries: [
656 federator_incoming: 5,
657 federator_outgoing: 5
658 ]
659 ```
660
661 #### Migrating `Pleroma.Web.Federator.RetryQueue` settings
662
663 * `max_retries` is replaced with `config :pleroma, :workers, retries: [federator_outgoing: 5]`
664 * `enabled: false` corresponds to `config :pleroma, :workers, retries: [federator_outgoing: 1]`
665 * deprecated options: `max_jobs`, `initial_timeout`
666
667 ## :web_push_encryption, :vapid_details
668
669 Web Push Notifications configuration. You can use the mix task `mix web_push.gen.keypair` to generate it.
670
671 * ``subject``: a mailto link for the administrative contact. It’s best if this email is not a personal email address, but rather a group email so that if a person leaves an organization, is unavailable for an extended period, or otherwise can’t respond, someone else on the list can.
672 * ``public_key``: VAPID public key
673 * ``private_key``: VAPID private key
674
675 ## :logger
676 * `backends`: `:console` is used to send logs to stdout, `{ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}` to log to syslog, and `Quack.Logger` to log to Slack
677
678 An example to enable ONLY ExSyslogger (f/ex in ``prod.secret.exs``) with info and debug suppressed:
679 ```elixir
680 config :logger,
681 backends: [{ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}]
682
683 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
684 level: :warn
685 ```
686
687 Another example, keeping console output and adding the pid to syslog output:
688 ```elixir
689 config :logger,
690 backends: [:console, {ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}]
691
692 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
693 level: :warn,
694 option: [:pid, :ndelay]
695 ```
696
697 See: [logger’s documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/logger/Logger.html) and [ex_syslogger’s documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/ex_syslogger/)
698
699 An example of logging info to local syslog, but warn to a Slack channel:
700 ```elixir
701 config :logger,
702 backends: [ {ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}, Quack.Logger ],
703 level: :info
704
705 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
706 level: :info,
707 ident: "pleroma",
708 format: "$metadata[$level] $message"
709
710 config :quack,
711 level: :warn,
712 meta: [:all],
713 webhook_url: "https://hooks.slack.com/services/YOUR-API-KEY-HERE"
714 ```
715
716 See the [Quack Github](https://github.com/azohra/quack) for more details
717
718
719
720 ## Database options
721
722 ### RUM indexing for full text search
723
724 !!! warning
725 It is recommended to use PostgreSQL v11 or newer. We have seen some minor issues with lower PostgreSQL versions.
726
727 * `rum_enabled`: If RUM indexes should be used. Defaults to `false`.
728
729 RUM indexes are an alternative indexing scheme that is not included in PostgreSQL by default. While they may eventually be mainlined, for now they have to be installed as a PostgreSQL extension from https://github.com/postgrespro/rum.
730
731 Their advantage over the standard GIN indexes is that they allow efficient ordering of search results by timestamp, which makes search queries a lot faster on larger servers, by one or two orders of magnitude. They take up around 3 times as much space as GIN indexes.
732
733 To enable them, both the `rum_enabled` flag has to be set and the following special migration has to be run:
734
735 `mix ecto.migrate --migrations-path priv/repo/optional_migrations/rum_indexing/`
736
737 This will probably take a long time.
738
739 ## Alternative client protocols
740
741 ### BBS / SSH access
742
743 To enable simple command line interface accessible over ssh, add a setting like this to your configuration file:
744
745 ```exs
746 app_dir = File.cwd!
747 priv_dir = Path.join([app_dir, "priv/ssh_keys"])
748
749 config :esshd,
750 enabled: true,
751 priv_dir: priv_dir,
752 handler: "Pleroma.BBS.Handler",
753 port: 10_022,
754 password_authenticator: "Pleroma.BBS.Authenticator"
755 ```
756
757 Feel free to adjust the priv_dir and port number. Then you will have to create the key for the keys (in the example `priv/ssh_keys`) and create the host keys with `ssh-keygen -m PEM -N "" -b 2048 -t rsa -f ssh_host_rsa_key`. After restarting, you should be able to connect to your Pleroma instance with `ssh username@server -p $PORT`
758
759 ### :gopher
760 * `enabled`: Enables the gopher interface
761 * `ip`: IP address to bind to
762 * `port`: Port to bind to
763 * `dstport`: Port advertised in urls (optional, defaults to `port`)
764
765
766 ## Authentication
767
768 ### :admin_token
769
770 Allows to set a token that can be used to authenticate with the admin api without using an actual user by giving it as the `admin_token` parameter or `x-admin-token` HTTP header. Example:
771
772 ```elixir
773 config :pleroma, :admin_token, "somerandomtoken"
774 ```
775
776 You can then do
777
778 ```shell
779 curl "http://localhost:4000/api/pleroma/admin/users/invites?admin_token=somerandomtoken"
780 ```
781
782 or
783
784 ```shell
785 curl -H "X-Admin-Token: somerandomtoken" "http://localhost:4000/api/pleroma/admin/users/invites"
786 ```
787
788 ### :auth
789
790 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.PleromaAuthenticator`: default database authenticator.
791 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.LDAPAuthenticator`: LDAP authentication.
792
793 Authentication / authorization settings.
794
795 * `auth_template`: authentication form template. By default it's `show.html` which corresponds to `lib/pleroma/web/templates/o_auth/o_auth/show.html.eex`.
796 * `oauth_consumer_template`: OAuth consumer mode authentication form template. By default it's `consumer.html` which corresponds to `lib/pleroma/web/templates/o_auth/o_auth/consumer.html.eex`.
797 * `oauth_consumer_strategies`: the list of enabled OAuth consumer strategies; by default it's set by `OAUTH_CONSUMER_STRATEGIES` environment variable. Each entry in this space-delimited string should be of format `<strategy>` or `<strategy>:<dependency>` (e.g. `twitter` or `keycloak:ueberauth_keycloak_strategy` in case dependency is named differently than `ueberauth_<strategy>`).
798
799 ### Pleroma.Web.Auth.Authenticator
800
801 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.PleromaAuthenticator`: default database authenticator.
802 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.LDAPAuthenticator`: LDAP authentication.
803
804 ### :ldap
805
806 Use LDAP for user authentication. When a user logs in to the Pleroma
807 instance, the name and password will be verified by trying to authenticate
808 (bind) to an LDAP server. If a user exists in the LDAP directory but there
809 is no account with the same name yet on the Pleroma instance then a new
810 Pleroma account will be created with the same name as the LDAP user name.
811
812 * `enabled`: enables LDAP authentication
813 * `host`: LDAP server hostname
814 * `port`: LDAP port, e.g. 389 or 636
815 * `ssl`: true to use SSL, usually implies the port 636
816 * `sslopts`: additional SSL options
817 * `tls`: true to start TLS, usually implies the port 389
818 * `tlsopts`: additional TLS options
819 * `base`: LDAP base, e.g. "dc=example,dc=com"
820 * `uid`: LDAP attribute name to authenticate the user, e.g. when "cn", the filter will be "cn=username,base"
821
822 ### OAuth consumer mode
823
824 OAuth consumer mode allows sign in / sign up via external OAuth providers (e.g. Twitter, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, etc.).
825 Implementation is based on Ueberauth; see the list of [available strategies](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth/wiki/List-of-Strategies).
826
827 !!! note
828 Each strategy is shipped as a separate dependency; in order to get the strategies, run `OAUTH_CONSUMER_STRATEGIES="..." mix deps.get`, e.g. `OAUTH_CONSUMER_STRATEGIES="twitter facebook google microsoft" mix deps.get`. The server should also be started with `OAUTH_CONSUMER_STRATEGIES="..." mix phx.server` in case you enable any strategies.
829
830 !!! note
831 Each strategy requires separate setup (on external provider side and Pleroma side). Below are the guidelines on setting up most popular strategies.
832
833 !!! note
834 Make sure that `"SameSite=Lax"` is set in `extra_cookie_attrs` when you have this feature enabled. OAuth consumer mode will not work with `"SameSite=Strict"`
835
836 * For Twitter, [register an app](https://developer.twitter.com/en/apps), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/twitter/callback
837
838 * For Facebook, [register an app](https://developers.facebook.com/apps), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/facebook/callback, enable Facebook Login service at https://developers.facebook.com/apps/<app_id>/fb-login/settings/
839
840 * For Google, [register an app](https://console.developers.google.com), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/google/callback
841
842 * For Microsoft, [register an app](https://portal.azure.com), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/microsoft/callback
843
844 Once the app is configured on external OAuth provider side, add app's credentials and strategy-specific settings (if any — e.g. see Microsoft below) to `config/prod.secret.exs`,
845 per strategy's documentation (e.g. [ueberauth_twitter](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth_twitter)). Example config basing on environment variables:
846
847 ```elixir
848 # Twitter
849 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Twitter.OAuth,
850 consumer_key: System.get_env("TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY"),
851 consumer_secret: System.get_env("TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET")
852
853 # Facebook
854 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Facebook.OAuth,
855 client_id: System.get_env("FACEBOOK_APP_ID"),
856 client_secret: System.get_env("FACEBOOK_APP_SECRET"),
857 redirect_uri: System.get_env("FACEBOOK_REDIRECT_URI")
858

867 client_id: System.get_env("MICROSOFT_CLIENT_ID"),
868 client_secret: System.get_env("MICROSOFT_CLIENT_SECRET")
869
870 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
871 providers: [
872 microsoft: {Ueberauth.Strategy.Microsoft, [callback_params: []]}
873 ]
874
875 # Keycloak
876 # Note: make sure to add `keycloak:ueberauth_keycloak_strategy` entry to `OAUTH_CONSUMER_STRATEGIES` environment variable
877 keycloak_url = "https://publicly-reachable-keycloak-instance.org:8080"
878
879 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Keycloak.OAuth,
880 client_id: System.get_env("KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_ID"),
881 client_secret: System.get_env("KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_SECRET"),
882 site: keycloak_url,
883 authorize_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/auth",
884 token_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/token",
885 userinfo_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/userinfo",
886 token_method: :post
887
888 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
889 providers: [
890 keycloak: {Ueberauth.Strategy.Keycloak, [uid_field: :email]}
891 ]
892 ```
893
894 ### OAuth 2.0 provider - :oauth2
895
896 Configure OAuth 2 provider capabilities:
897
898 * `token_expires_in` - The lifetime in seconds of the access token.
899 * `issue_new_refresh_token` - Keeps old refresh token or generate new refresh token when to obtain an access token.

916 * `strip_prefix: true` - Strip the scheme prefix.
917 * `extra: false` - link urls with rarely used schemes (magnet, ipfs, irc, etc.).
918
919 Example:
920
921 ```elixir
922 config :auto_linker,
923 opts: [
924 scheme: true,
925 extra: true,
926 class: false,
