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.

369
370 ### :rate_limit
371
372 !!! note
373 If your instance is behind a reverse proxy ensure [`Pleroma.Plugs.RemoteIp`](#pleroma-plugs-remoteip) is enabled (it is enabled by default).
374
375 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:
376
377 * The first element: `scale` (Integer). The time scale in milliseconds.
378 * The second element: `limit` (Integer). How many requests to limit in the time scale provided.
379
380 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.
381
382 For example:
383
384 ```elixir
385 config :pleroma, :rate_limit,

388 ```
389
390 Means that:
391
392 1. In 60 seconds, 15 authentication attempts can be performed from the same IP address.
393 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.
394
395 Supported rate limiters:
396
397 * `:search` - Account/Status search.

415 * `:activity_pub` - activity pub routes (except question activities). Defaults to `nil` (no expiration).
416 * `:activity_pub_question` - activity pub routes (question activities). Defaults to `30_000` (30 seconds).
417
418 ## HTTP client
419
420 ### :http
421
422 * `proxy_url`: an upstream proxy to fetch posts and/or media with, (default: `nil`)
423 * `send_user_agent`: should we include a user agent with HTTP requests? (default: `true`)
424 * `user_agent`: what user agent should we use? (default: `:default`), must be string or `:default`
425 * `adapter`: array of adapter options
426
427 ### :hackney_pools
428
429 Advanced. Tweaks Hackney (http client) connections pools.
430
431 There's three pools used:
432
433 * `:federation` for the federation jobs.
434 You may want this pool max_connections to be at least equal to the number of federator jobs + retry queue jobs.
435 * `:media` for rich media, media proxy
436 * `:upload` for uploaded media (if using a remote uploader and `proxy_remote: true`)
437
438 For each pool, the options are:
439
440 * `max_connections` - how much connections a pool can hold
441 * `timeout` - retention duration for connections
442
443
444 ### :connections_pool
445
446 *For `gun` adapter*
447
448 Advanced settings for connections pool. Pool with opened connections. These connections can be reused in worker pools.
449
450 For big instances it's recommended to increase `config :pleroma, :connections_pool, max_connections: 500` up to 500-1000.
451 It will increase memory usage, but federation would work faster.
452
453 * `:checkin_timeout` - timeout to checkin connection from pool. Default: 250ms.
454 * `:max_connections` - maximum number of connections in the pool. Default: 250 connections.
455 * `:retry` - number of retries, while `gun` will try to reconnect if connection goes down. Default: 1.
456 * `:retry_timeout` - time between retries when `gun` will try to reconnect in milliseconds. Default: 1000ms.
457 * `:await_up_timeout` - timeout while `gun` will wait until connection is up. Default: 5000ms.
458
459 ### :pools
460
461 *For `gun` adapter*
462
463 Advanced settings for workers pools.
464
465 There are four pools used:
466
467 * `:federation` for the federation jobs.
468 You may want this pool max_connections to be at least equal to the number of federator jobs + retry queue jobs.
469 * `:media` for rich media, media proxy
470 * `:upload` for uploaded media (if using a remote uploader and `proxy_remote: true`)
471 * `:default` for other requests
472
473 For each pool, the options are:
474
475 * `:size` - how much workers the pool can hold
476 * `:timeout` - timeout while `gun` will wait for response
477 * `:max_overflow` - additional workers if pool is under load
478
479
480 ## Captcha
481
482 ### Pleroma.Captcha
483
484 * `enabled`: Whether the captcha should be shown on registration.

491
492 A built-in captcha provider. Enabled by default.
493
494 #### Pleroma.Captcha.Kocaptcha
495
496 Kocaptcha is a very simple captcha service with a single API endpoint,
497 the source code is here: https://github.com/koto-bank/kocaptcha. The default endpoint
498 `https://captcha.kotobank.ch` is hosted by the developer.
499
500 * `endpoint`: the Kocaptcha endpoint to use.
501

503
504 ### Pleroma.Upload
505 * `uploader`: Which one of the [uploaders](#uploaders) to use.
506 * `filters`: List of [upload filters](#upload-filters) to use.
507 * `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`
508 * `base_url`: The base URL to access a user-uploaded file. Useful when you want to proxy the media files via another host.
509 * `proxy_remote`: If you're using a remote uploader, Pleroma will proxy media requests instead of redirecting to it.
510 * `proxy_opts`: Proxy options, see `Pleroma.ReverseProxy` documentation.
511 * `filename_display_max_length`: Set max length of a filename to display. 0 = no limit. Default: 30.
512

523 * `public_endpoint`: S3 endpoint that the user finally accesses(ex. "https://s3.dualstack.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com")
524 * `truncated_namespace`: If you use S3 compatible service such as Digital Ocean Spaces or CDN, set folder name or "" etc.
525 For example, when using CDN to S3 virtual host format, set "".
526 At this time, write CNAME to CDN in public_endpoint.
527 * `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.
528
529
530 ### Upload filters
531
532 #### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Mogrify
533
534 * `args`: List of actions for the `mogrify` command like `"strip"` or `["strip", "auto-orient", {"implode", "1"}]`.

538 No specific configuration.
539
540 #### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.AnonymizeFilename
541
542 This filter replaces the filename (not the path) of an upload. For complete obfuscation, add
543 `Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Dedupe` before AnonymizeFilename.
544
545 * `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}`.

558 enabled: true,
559 adapter: Swoosh.Adapters.Sendgrid,
560 api_key: "YOUR_API_KEY"
561 ```
562
563 An example for SMTP adapter:

597
598 ## Background jobs
599
600 ### Oban
601
602 [Oban](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban) asynchronous job processor configuration.
603
604 Configuration options described in [Oban readme](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban#usage):
605
606 * `repo` - app's Ecto repo (`Pleroma.Repo`)
607 * `verbose` - logs verbosity
608 * `prune` - non-retryable jobs [pruning settings](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban#pruning) (`:disabled` / `{:maxlen, value}` / `{:maxage, value}`)
609 * `queues` - job queues (see below)
610 * `crontab` - periodic jobs, see [`Oban.Cron`](#obancron)
611
612 Pleroma has the following queues:
613
614 * `activity_expiration` - Activity expiration
615 * `federator_outgoing` - Outgoing federation
616 * `federator_incoming` - Incoming federation
617 * `mailer` - Email sender, see [`Pleroma.Emails.Mailer`](#pleromaemailsmailer)
618 * `transmogrifier` - Transmogrifier
619 * `web_push` - Web push notifications
620 * `scheduled_activities` - Scheduled activities, see [`Pleroma.ScheduledActivity`](#pleromascheduledactivity)
621
622 #### Oban.Cron
623
624 Pleroma has these periodic job workers:
625
626 `Pleroma.Workers.Cron.ClearOauthTokenWorker` - a job worker to cleanup expired oauth tokens.
627
628 Example:
629
630 ```elixir
631 config :pleroma, Oban,
632 repo: Pleroma.Repo,
633 verbose: false,
634 prune: {:maxlen, 1500},
635 queues: [
636 federator_incoming: 50,
637 federator_outgoing: 50
638 ],
639 crontab: [
640 {"0 0 * * *", Pleroma.Workers.Cron.ClearOauthTokenWorker}
641 ]
642 ```
643
644 This config contains two queues: `federator_incoming` and `federator_outgoing`. Both have the number of max concurrent jobs set to `50`.
645
646 #### Migrating `pleroma_job_queue` settings
647
648 `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).
649
650 ### :workers
651
652 Includes custom worker options not interpretable directly by `Oban`.
653
654 * `retries` — keyword lists where keys are `Oban` queues (see above) and values are numbers of max attempts for failed jobs.
655
656 Example:
657
658 ```elixir
659 config :pleroma, :workers,
660 retries: [
661 federator_incoming: 5,
662 federator_outgoing: 5
663 ]
664 ```
665
666 #### Migrating `Pleroma.Web.Federator.RetryQueue` settings
667
668 * `max_retries` is replaced with `config :pleroma, :workers, retries: [federator_outgoing: 5]`
669 * `enabled: false` corresponds to `config :pleroma, :workers, retries: [federator_outgoing: 1]`
670 * deprecated options: `max_jobs`, `initial_timeout`
671
672 ## :web_push_encryption, :vapid_details
673
674 Web Push Notifications configuration. You can use the mix task `mix web_push.gen.keypair` to generate it.
675
676 * ``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.
677 * ``public_key``: VAPID public key
678 * ``private_key``: VAPID private key
679
680 ## :logger
681 * `backends`: `:console` is used to send logs to stdout, `{ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}` to log to syslog, and `Quack.Logger` to log to Slack
682
683 An example to enable ONLY ExSyslogger (f/ex in ``prod.secret.exs``) with info and debug suppressed:
684 ```elixir
685 config :logger,
686 backends: [{ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}]
687
688 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
689 level: :warn
690 ```
691
692 Another example, keeping console output and adding the pid to syslog output:
693 ```elixir
694 config :logger,
695 backends: [:console, {ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}]
696
697 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
698 level: :warn,
699 option: [:pid, :ndelay]
700 ```
701
702 See: [logger’s documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/logger/Logger.html) and [ex_syslogger’s documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/ex_syslogger/)
703
704 An example of logging info to local syslog, but warn to a Slack channel:
705 ```elixir
706 config :logger,
707 backends: [ {ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}, Quack.Logger ],
708 level: :info
709
710 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
711 level: :info,
712 ident: "pleroma",
713 format: "$metadata[$level] $message"
714
715 config :quack,
716 level: :warn,
717 meta: [:all],
718 webhook_url: "https://hooks.slack.com/services/YOUR-API-KEY-HERE"
719 ```
720
721 See the [Quack Github](https://github.com/azohra/quack) for more details
722
723
724
725 ## Database options
726
727 ### RUM indexing for full text search
728
729 !!! warning
730 It is recommended to use PostgreSQL v11 or newer. We have seen some minor issues with lower PostgreSQL versions.
731
732 * `rum_enabled`: If RUM indexes should be used. Defaults to `false`.
733
734 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.
735
736 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.
737
738 To enable them, both the `rum_enabled` flag has to be set and the following special migration has to be run:
739
740 `mix ecto.migrate --migrations-path priv/repo/optional_migrations/rum_indexing/`
741
742 This will probably take a long time.
743
744 ## Alternative client protocols
745
746 ### BBS / SSH access
747
748 To enable simple command line interface accessible over ssh, add a setting like this to your configuration file:
749
750 ```exs
751 app_dir = File.cwd!
752 priv_dir = Path.join([app_dir, "priv/ssh_keys"])
753
754 config :esshd,
755 enabled: true,
756 priv_dir: priv_dir,
757 handler: "Pleroma.BBS.Handler",
758 port: 10_022,
759 password_authenticator: "Pleroma.BBS.Authenticator"
760 ```
761
762 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`
763
764 ### :gopher
765 * `enabled`: Enables the gopher interface
766 * `ip`: IP address to bind to
767 * `port`: Port to bind to
768 * `dstport`: Port advertised in urls (optional, defaults to `port`)
769
770
771 ## Authentication
772
773 ### :admin_token
774
775 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:
776
777 ```elixir
778 config :pleroma, :admin_token, "somerandomtoken"
779 ```
780
781 You can then do
782
783 ```shell
784 curl "http://localhost:4000/api/pleroma/admin/users/invites?admin_token=somerandomtoken"
785 ```
786
787 or
788
789 ```shell
790 curl -H "X-Admin-Token: somerandomtoken" "http://localhost:4000/api/pleroma/admin/users/invites"
791 ```
792
793 ### :auth
794
795 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.PleromaAuthenticator`: default database authenticator.
796 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.LDAPAuthenticator`: LDAP authentication.
797
798 Authentication / authorization settings.
799
800 * `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`.
801 * `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`.
802 * `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>`).
803
804 ### Pleroma.Web.Auth.Authenticator
805
806 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.PleromaAuthenticator`: default database authenticator.
807 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.LDAPAuthenticator`: LDAP authentication.
808
809 ### :ldap
810
811 Use LDAP for user authentication. When a user logs in to the Pleroma
812 instance, the name and password will be verified by trying to authenticate
813 (bind) to an LDAP server. If a user exists in the LDAP directory but there
814 is no account with the same name yet on the Pleroma instance then a new
815 Pleroma account will be created with the same name as the LDAP user name.
816
817 * `enabled`: enables LDAP authentication
818 * `host`: LDAP server hostname
819 * `port`: LDAP port, e.g. 389 or 636
820 * `ssl`: true to use SSL, usually implies the port 636
821 * `sslopts`: additional SSL options
822 * `tls`: true to start TLS, usually implies the port 389
823 * `tlsopts`: additional TLS options
824 * `base`: LDAP base, e.g. "dc=example,dc=com"
825 * `uid`: LDAP attribute name to authenticate the user, e.g. when "cn", the filter will be "cn=username,base"
826
827 ### OAuth consumer mode
828
829 OAuth consumer mode allows sign in / sign up via external OAuth providers (e.g. Twitter, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, etc.).
830 Implementation is based on Ueberauth; see the list of [available strategies](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth/wiki/List-of-Strategies).
831
832 !!! note
833 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.
834
835 !!! note
836 Each strategy requires separate setup (on external provider side and Pleroma side). Below are the guidelines on setting up most popular strategies.
837
838 !!! note
839 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"`
840
841 * For Twitter, [register an app](https://developer.twitter.com/en/apps), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/twitter/callback
842
843 * 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/
844
845 * For Google, [register an app](https://console.developers.google.com), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/google/callback
846
847 * For Microsoft, [register an app](https://portal.azure.com), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/microsoft/callback
848
849 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`,
850 per strategy's documentation (e.g. [ueberauth_twitter](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth_twitter)). Example config basing on environment variables:
851
852 ```elixir
853 # Twitter
854 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Twitter.OAuth,
855 consumer_key: System.get_env("TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY"),
856 consumer_secret: System.get_env("TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET")
857
858 # Facebook
859 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Facebook.OAuth,
860 client_id: System.get_env("FACEBOOK_APP_ID"),
861 client_secret: System.get_env("FACEBOOK_APP_SECRET"),
862 redirect_uri: System.get_env("FACEBOOK_REDIRECT_URI")
863

867 client_secret: System.get_env("GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET"),
868 redirect_uri: System.get_env("GOOGLE_REDIRECT_URI")
869
870 # Microsoft
871 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Microsoft.OAuth,
872 client_id: System.get_env("MICROSOFT_CLIENT_ID"),
873 client_secret: System.get_env("MICROSOFT_CLIENT_SECRET")
874
875 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
876 providers: [
877 microsoft: {Ueberauth.Strategy.Microsoft, [callback_params: []]}
878 ]
879
880 # Keycloak
881 # Note: make sure to add `keycloak:ueberauth_keycloak_strategy` entry to `OAUTH_CONSUMER_STRATEGIES` environment variable
882 keycloak_url = "https://publicly-reachable-keycloak-instance.org:8080"
883
884 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Keycloak.OAuth,
885 client_id: System.get_env("KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_ID"),
886 client_secret: System.get_env("KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_SECRET"),
887 site: keycloak_url,
888 authorize_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/auth",
889 token_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/token",
890 userinfo_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/userinfo",
891 token_method: :post
892
893 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
894 providers: [
895 keycloak: {Ueberauth.Strategy.Keycloak, [uid_field: :email]}
896 ]
897 ```
898
899 ### OAuth 2.0 provider - :oauth2
900
901 Configure OAuth 2 provider capabilities:
902
903 * `token_expires_in` - The lifetime in seconds of the access token.
904 * `issue_new_refresh_token` - Keeps old refresh token or generate new refresh token when to obtain an access token.

922 * `extra: false` - link urls with rarely used schemes (magnet, ipfs, irc, etc.).
923
924 Example:
925
926 ```elixir
927 config :auto_linker,
928 opts: [
929 scheme: true,
930 extra: true,
