1 # Configuration Cheat Sheet
3 This is a cheat sheet for Pleroma configuration file, any setting possible to configure should be listed here.
5 For OTP installations the configuration is typically stored in `/etc/pleroma/config.exs`.
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`.
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.

518 #### Pleroma.Uploaders.Local
520 * `uploads`: Which directory to store the user-uploads in, relative to pleroma’s working directory.
522 #### Pleroma.Uploaders.S3
524 Don't forget to configure [Ex AWS S3](#ex-aws-s3-settings)
526 * `bucket`: S3 bucket name.
527 * `bucket_namespace`: S3 bucket namespace.
528 * `public_endpoint`: S3 endpoint that the user finally accesses(ex. "https://s3.dualstack.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com")
529 * `truncated_namespace`: If you use S3 compatible service such as Digital Ocean Spaces or CDN, set folder name or "" etc.
530 For example, when using CDN to S3 virtual host format, set "".
531 At this time, write CNAME to CDN in public_endpoint.
532 * `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.
534 #### Ex AWS S3 settings
536 * `access_key_id`: Access key ID
537 * `secret_access_key`: Secret access key
544 access_key_id: "xxxxxxxxxx",
545 secret_access_key: "yyyyyyyyyy",
546 host: "s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com"
551 #### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.AnonymizeFilename
553 This filter replaces the filename (not the path) of an upload. For complete obfuscation, add
554 `Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Dedupe` before AnonymizeFilename.
556 * `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 #### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Dedupe
560 No specific configuration.
562 #### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Exiftool
564 This filter only strips the GPS and location metadata with Exiftool leaving color profiles and attributes intact.
566 No specific configuration.
568 #### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Mogrify
570 * `args`: List of actions for the `mogrify` command like `"strip"` or `["strip", "auto-orient", {"implode", "1"}]`.
574 ### Pleroma.Emails.Mailer
575 * `adapter`: one of the mail adapters listed in [Swoosh readme](https://github.com/swoosh/swoosh#adapters), or `Swoosh.Adapters.Local` for in-memory mailbox.
576 * `api_key` / `password` and / or other adapter-specific settings, per the above documentation.
577 * `enabled`: Allows enable/disable send emails. Default: `false`.
579 An example for Sendgrid adapter:
582 config :pleroma, Pleroma.Emails.Mailer,
584 adapter: Swoosh.Adapters.Sendgrid,
585 api_key: "YOUR_API_KEY"
588 An example for SMTP adapter:
591 config :pleroma, Pleroma.Emails.Mailer,
593 adapter: Swoosh.Adapters.SMTP,
594 relay: "smtp.gmail.com",
595 username: "YOUR_USERNAME@gmail.com",
596 password: "YOUR_SMTP_PASSWORD",
602 ### :email_notifications
604 Email notifications settings.
606 - digest - emails of "what you've missed" for users who have been
607 inactive for a while.
608 - active: globally enable or disable digest emails
609 - schedule: When to send digest email, in [crontab format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron).
610 "0 0 * * 0" is the default, meaning "once a week at midnight on Sunday morning"
611 - interval: Minimum interval between digest emails to one user
612 - inactivity_threshold: Minimum user inactivity threshold
614 ### Pleroma.Emails.UserEmail
616 - `:logo` - a path to a custom logo. Set it to `nil` to use the default Pleroma logo.
617 - `:styling` - a map with color settings for email templates.
619 ### Pleroma.Emails.NewUsersDigestEmail
621 - `:enabled` - a boolean, enables new users admin digest email when `true`. Defaults to `false`.
627 [Oban](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban) asynchronous job processor configuration.
629 Configuration options described in [Oban readme](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban#usage):
631 * `repo` - app's Ecto repo (`Pleroma.Repo`)
632 * `log` - logs verbosity
633 * `queues` - job queues (see below)
634 * `crontab` - periodic jobs, see [`Oban.Cron`](#obancron)
636 Pleroma has the following queues:
638 * `activity_expiration` - Activity expiration
639 * `federator_outgoing` - Outgoing federation
640 * `federator_incoming` - Incoming federation
641 * `mailer` - Email sender, see [`Pleroma.Emails.Mailer`](#pleromaemailsmailer)
642 * `transmogrifier` - Transmogrifier
643 * `web_push` - Web push notifications
644 * `scheduled_activities` - Scheduled activities, see [`Pleroma.ScheduledActivity`](#pleromascheduledactivity)
648 Pleroma has these periodic job workers:
650 `Pleroma.Workers.Cron.ClearOauthTokenWorker` - a job worker to cleanup expired oauth tokens.
655 config :pleroma, Oban,
658 prune: {:maxlen, 1500},
660 federator_incoming: 50,
661 federator_outgoing: 50
664 {"0 0 * * *", Pleroma.Workers.Cron.ClearOauthTokenWorker}
668 This config contains two queues: `federator_incoming` and `federator_outgoing`. Both have the number of max concurrent jobs set to `50`.
670 #### Migrating `pleroma_job_queue` settings
672 `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).
676 Includes custom worker options not interpretable directly by `Oban`.
678 * `retries` — keyword lists where keys are `Oban` queues (see above) and values are numbers of max attempts for failed jobs.
683 config :pleroma, :workers,
685 federator_incoming: 5,
686 federator_outgoing: 5
690 #### Migrating `Pleroma.Web.Federator.RetryQueue` settings
692 * `max_retries` is replaced with `config :pleroma, :workers, retries: [federator_outgoing: 5]`
693 * `enabled: false` corresponds to `config :pleroma, :workers, retries: [federator_outgoing: 1]`
694 * deprecated options: `max_jobs`, `initial_timeout`
696 ## :web_push_encryption, :vapid_details
698 Web Push Notifications configuration. You can use the mix task `mix web_push.gen.keypair` to generate it.
700 * ``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.
701 * ``public_key``: VAPID public key
702 * ``private_key``: VAPID private key
705 * `backends`: `:console` is used to send logs to stdout, `{ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}` to log to syslog, and `Quack.Logger` to log to Slack
707 An example to enable ONLY ExSyslogger (f/ex in ``prod.secret.exs``) with info and debug suppressed:
710 backends: [{ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}]
712 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
716 Another example, keeping console output and adding the pid to syslog output:
719 backends: [:console, {ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}]
721 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
723 option: [:pid, :ndelay]
726 See: [logger’s documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/logger/Logger.html) and [ex_syslogger’s documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/ex_syslogger/)
728 An example of logging info to local syslog, but warn to a Slack channel:
731 backends: [ {ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}, Quack.Logger ],
734 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
737 format: "$metadata[$level] $message"
742 webhook_url: "https://hooks.slack.com/services/YOUR-API-KEY-HERE"
745 See the [Quack Github](https://github.com/azohra/quack) for more details
751 ### RUM indexing for full text search
754 It is recommended to use PostgreSQL v11 or newer. We have seen some minor issues with lower PostgreSQL versions.
756 * `rum_enabled`: If RUM indexes should be used. Defaults to `false`.
758 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.
760 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.
762 To enable them, both the `rum_enabled` flag has to be set and the following special migration has to be run:
764 `mix ecto.migrate --migrations-path priv/repo/optional_migrations/rum_indexing/`
766 This will probably take a long time.
768 ## Alternative client protocols
772 To enable simple command line interface accessible over ssh, add a setting like this to your configuration file:
776 priv_dir = Path.join([app_dir, "priv/ssh_keys"])
781 handler: "Pleroma.BBS.Handler",
783 password_authenticator: "Pleroma.BBS.Authenticator"
786 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`
789 * `enabled`: Enables the gopher interface
790 * `ip`: IP address to bind to
791 * `port`: Port to bind to
792 * `dstport`: Port advertised in urls (optional, defaults to `port`)
799 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:
802 config :pleroma, :admin_token, "somerandomtoken"
808 curl "http://localhost:4000/api/pleroma/admin/users/invites?admin_token=somerandomtoken"
814 curl -H "X-Admin-Token: somerandomtoken" "http://localhost:4000/api/pleroma/admin/users/invites"
819 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.PleromaAuthenticator`: default database authenticator.
820 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.LDAPAuthenticator`: LDAP authentication.
822 Authentication / authorization settings.
824 * `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`.
825 * `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`.
826 * `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>`).
828 ### Pleroma.Web.Auth.Authenticator
830 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.PleromaAuthenticator`: default database authenticator.
831 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.LDAPAuthenticator`: LDAP authentication.
835 Use LDAP for user authentication. When a user logs in to the Pleroma
836 instance, the name and password will be verified by trying to authenticate
837 (bind) to an LDAP server. If a user exists in the LDAP directory but there
838 is no account with the same name yet on the Pleroma instance then a new
839 Pleroma account will be created with the same name as the LDAP user name.
841 * `enabled`: enables LDAP authentication
842 * `host`: LDAP server hostname
843 * `port`: LDAP port, e.g. 389 or 636
844 * `ssl`: true to use SSL, usually implies the port 636
845 * `sslopts`: additional SSL options
846 * `tls`: true to start TLS, usually implies the port 389
847 * `tlsopts`: additional TLS options
848 * `base`: LDAP base, e.g. "dc=example,dc=com"
849 * `uid`: LDAP attribute name to authenticate the user, e.g. when "cn", the filter will be "cn=username,base"
851 ### OAuth consumer mode
853 OAuth consumer mode allows sign in / sign up via external OAuth providers (e.g. Twitter, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, etc.).
854 Implementation is based on Ueberauth; see the list of [available strategies](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth/wiki/List-of-Strategies).
857 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.
860 Each strategy requires separate setup (on external provider side and Pleroma side). Below are the guidelines on setting up most popular strategies.
863 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"`
865 * For Twitter, [register an app](https://developer.twitter.com/en/apps), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/twitter/callback
867 * 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/
869 * For Google, [register an app](https://console.developers.google.com), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/google/callback
871 * For Microsoft, [register an app](https://portal.azure.com), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/microsoft/callback
873 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`,
874 per strategy's documentation (e.g. [ueberauth_twitter](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth_twitter)). Example config basing on environment variables:
878 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Twitter.OAuth,
879 consumer_key: System.get_env("TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY"),
880 consumer_secret: System.get_env("TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET")
883 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Facebook.OAuth,
884 client_id: System.get_env("FACEBOOK_APP_ID"),
885 client_secret: System.get_env("FACEBOOK_APP_SECRET"),
886 redirect_uri: System.get_env("FACEBOOK_REDIRECT_URI")
889 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Google.OAuth,
890 client_id: System.get_env("GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID"),
891 client_secret: System.get_env("GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET"),
892 redirect_uri: System.get_env("GOOGLE_REDIRECT_URI")
895 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Microsoft.OAuth,
896 client_id: System.get_env("MICROSOFT_CLIENT_ID"),
897 client_secret: System.get_env("MICROSOFT_CLIENT_SECRET")
899 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
901 microsoft: {Ueberauth.Strategy.Microsoft, [callback_params: []]}
905 # Note: make sure to add `keycloak:ueberauth_keycloak_strategy` entry to `OAUTH_CONSUMER_STRATEGIES` environment variable
906 keycloak_url = "https://publicly-reachable-keycloak-instance.org:8080"
908 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Keycloak.OAuth,
909 client_id: System.get_env("KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_ID"),
910 client_secret: System.get_env("KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_SECRET"),
912 authorize_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/auth",
913 token_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/token",
914 userinfo_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/userinfo",
917 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
919 keycloak: {Ueberauth.Strategy.Keycloak, [uid_field: :email]}
923 ### OAuth 2.0 provider - :oauth2
925 Configure OAuth 2 provider capabilities:
927 * `token_expires_in` - The lifetime in seconds of the access token.
928 * `issue_new_refresh_token` - Keeps old refresh token or generate new refresh token when to obtain an access token.
929 * `clean_expired_tokens` - Enable a background job to clean expired oauth tokens. Defaults to `false`. Interval settings sets in configuration periodic jobs [`Oban.Cron`](#obancron)
934 * `valid_schemes`: List of the scheme part that is considered valid to be an URL.
938 Configuration for the `auto_linker` library:
940 * `class: "auto-linker"` - specify the class to be added to the generated link. false to clear.
941 * `rel: "noopener noreferrer"` - override the rel attribute. false to clear.
942 * `new_window: true` - set to false to remove `target='_blank'` attribute.
943 * `scheme: false` - Set to true to link urls with schema `http://google.com`.
944 * `truncate: false` - Set to a number to truncate urls longer then the number. Truncated urls will end in `..`.
945 * `strip_prefix: true` - Strip the scheme prefix.
946 * `extra: false` - link urls with rarely used schemes (magnet, ipfs, irc, etc.).
962 ## Custom Runtime Modules (`:modules`)
964 * `runtime_dir`: A path to custom Elixir modules (such as MRF policies).
966 ## :configurable_from_database
968 Boolean, enables/disables in-database configuration. Read [Transfering the config to/from the database](../administration/CLI_tasks/config.md) for more information.
970 ## :database_config_whitelist
972 List of valid configuration sections which are allowed to be configured from the
973 database. Settings stored in the database before the whitelist is configured are
974 still applied, so it is suggested to only use the whitelist on instances that
975 have not migrated the config to the database.
979 config :pleroma, :database_config_whitelist, [
980 {:pleroma, :instance},
981 {:pleroma, Pleroma.Web.Metadata},
986 ### Multi-factor authentication - :two_factor_authentication
987 * `totp` - a list containing TOTP configuration
988 - `digits` - Determines the length of a one-time pass-code in characters. Defaults to 6 characters.
989 - `period` - a period for which the TOTP code will be valid in seconds. Defaults to 30 seconds.
990 * `backup_codes` - a list containing backup codes configuration
991 - `number` - number of backup codes to generate.
992 - `length` - backup code length. Defaults to 16 characters.
994 ## Restrict entities access for unauthenticated users
996 ### :restrict_unauthenticated
998 Restrict access for unauthenticated users to timelines (public and federated), user profiles and statuses.
1000 * `timelines`: public and federated timelines
1001 * `local`: public timeline
1002 * `federated`: federated timeline (includes public timeline)
1003 * `profiles`: user profiles
1006 * `activities`: statuses
1010 Note: setting `restrict_unauthenticated/timelines/local` to `true` has no practical sense if `restrict_unauthenticated/timelines/federated` is set to `false` (since local public activities will still be delivered to unauthenticated users as part of federated timeline).
1012 ## Pleroma.Web.ApiSpec.CastAndValidate
1014 * `:strict` a boolean, enables strict input validation (useful in development, not recommended in production). Defaults to `false`.
1016 ## :instances_favicons
1018 Control favicons for instances.
1020 * `enabled`: Allow/disallow displaying and getting instances favicons
