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.

322 ### :rate_limit
323
324 !!! note
325 If your instance is behind a reverse proxy ensure [`Pleroma.Plugs.RemoteIp`](#pleroma-plugs-remoteip) is enabled (it is enabled by default).
326
327 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:
328
329 * The first element: `scale` (Integer). The time scale in milliseconds.
330 * The second element: `limit` (Integer). How many requests to limit in the time scale provided.
331
332 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.
333
334 For example:
335
336 ```elixir
337 config :pleroma, :rate_limit,
338 authentication: {60_000, 15},
339 search: [{1000, 10}, {1000, 30}]
340 ```
341
342 Means that:
343
344 1. In 60 seconds, 15 authentication attempts can be performed from the same IP address.
345 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.
346
347 Supported rate limiters:
348
349 * `:search` - Account/Status search.
350 * `:timeline` - Timeline requests (each timeline has it's own limiter).
351 * `:app_account_creation` - Account registration from the API.

403 It will increase memory usage, but federation would work faster.
404
405 * `:checkin_timeout` - timeout to checkin connection from pool. Default: 250ms.
406 * `:max_connections` - maximum number of connections in the pool. Default: 250 connections.
407 * `:retry` - number of retries, while `gun` will try to reconnect if connection goes down. Default: 1.
408 * `:retry_timeout` - time between retries when `gun` will try to reconnect in milliseconds. Default: 1000ms.
409 * `:await_up_timeout` - timeout while `gun` will wait until connection is up. Default: 5000ms.
410
411 ### :pools
412
413 *For `gun` adapter*
414
415 Advanced settings for workers pools.
416
417 There are four pools used:
418
419 * `:federation` for the federation jobs.
420 You may want this pool max_connections to be at least equal to the number of federator jobs + retry queue jobs.
421 * `:media` for rich media, media proxy
422 * `:upload` for uploaded media (if using a remote uploader and `proxy_remote: true`)
423 * `:default` for other requests
424
425 For each pool, the options are:
426
427 * `:size` - how much workers the pool can hold
428 * `:timeout` - timeout while `gun` will wait for response
429 * `:max_overflow` - additional workers if pool is under load
430
431
432 ## Captcha
433
434 ### Pleroma.Captcha
435
436 * `enabled`: Whether the captcha should be shown on registration.
437 * `method`: The method/service to use for captcha.
438 * `seconds_valid`: The time in seconds for which the captcha is valid.
439
440 ### Captcha providers
441
442 #### Pleroma.Captcha.Native
443
444 A built-in captcha provider. Enabled by default.
445
446 #### Pleroma.Captcha.Kocaptcha
447
448 Kocaptcha is a very simple captcha service with a single API endpoint,
449 the source code is here: https://github.com/koto-bank/kocaptcha. The default endpoint
450 `https://captcha.kotobank.ch` is hosted by the developer.
451
452 * `endpoint`: the Kocaptcha endpoint to use.
453
454 ## Uploads
455
456 ### Pleroma.Upload
457 * `uploader`: Which one of the [uploaders](#uploaders) to use.
458 * `filters`: List of [upload filters](#upload-filters) to use.
459 * `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`
460 * `base_url`: The base URL to access a user-uploaded file. Useful when you want to proxy the media files via another host.
461 * `proxy_remote`: If you're using a remote uploader, Pleroma will proxy media requests instead of redirecting to it.
462 * `proxy_opts`: Proxy options, see `Pleroma.ReverseProxy` documentation.
463
464 !!! warning
465 `strip_exif` has been replaced by `Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Mogrify`.
466
467 ### Uploaders
468 #### Pleroma.Uploaders.Local
469 * `uploads`: Which directory to store the user-uploads in, relative to pleroma’s working directory.
470
471 #### Pleroma.Uploaders.S3
472 * `bucket`: S3 bucket name.
473 * `bucket_namespace`: S3 bucket namespace.
474 * `public_endpoint`: S3 endpoint that the user finally accesses(ex. "https://s3.dualstack.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com")
475 * `truncated_namespace`: If you use S3 compatible service such as Digital Ocean Spaces or CDN, set folder name or "" etc.
476 For example, when using CDN to S3 virtual host format, set "".
477 At this time, write CNAME to CDN in public_endpoint.
478 * `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.
479
480
481 ### Upload filters
482
483 #### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Mogrify
484
485 * `args`: List of actions for the `mogrify` command like `"strip"` or `["strip", "auto-orient", {"implode", "1"}]`.
486
487 #### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Dedupe
488
489 No specific configuration.
490
491 #### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.AnonymizeFilename
492
493 This filter replaces the filename (not the path) of an upload. For complete obfuscation, add
494 `Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Dedupe` before AnonymizeFilename.
495
496 * `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}`.
497
498 ## Email
499
500 ### Pleroma.Emails.Mailer
501 * `adapter`: one of the mail adapters listed in [Swoosh readme](https://github.com/swoosh/swoosh#adapters), or `Swoosh.Adapters.Local` for in-memory mailbox.
502 * `api_key` / `password` and / or other adapter-specific settings, per the above documentation.
503 * `enabled`: Allows enable/disable send emails. Default: `false`.
504
505 An example for Sendgrid adapter:
506
507 ```elixir
508 config :pleroma, Pleroma.Emails.Mailer,
509 enabled: true,
510 adapter: Swoosh.Adapters.Sendgrid,
511 api_key: "YOUR_API_KEY"
512 ```
513
514 An example for SMTP adapter:

533 inactive for a while.
534 - active: globally enable or disable digest emails
535 - schedule: When to send digest email, in [crontab format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron).
536 "0 0 * * 0" is the default, meaning "once a week at midnight on Sunday morning"
537 - interval: Minimum interval between digest emails to one user
538 - inactivity_threshold: Minimum user inactivity threshold
539
540 ### Pleroma.Emails.UserEmail

548
549 ## Background jobs
550
551 ### Oban
552
553 [Oban](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban) asynchronous job processor configuration.
554
555 Configuration options described in [Oban readme](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban#usage):
556
557 * `repo` - app's Ecto repo (`Pleroma.Repo`)
558 * `verbose` - logs verbosity
559 * `prune` - non-retryable jobs [pruning settings](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban#pruning) (`:disabled` / `{:maxlen, value}` / `{:maxage, value}`)
560 * `queues` - job queues (see below)
561 * `crontab` - periodic jobs, see [`Oban.Cron`](#obancron)
562
563 Pleroma has the following queues:
564
565 * `activity_expiration` - Activity expiration
566 * `federator_outgoing` - Outgoing federation
567 * `federator_incoming` - Incoming federation
568 * `mailer` - Email sender, see [`Pleroma.Emails.Mailer`](#pleromaemailsmailer)
569 * `transmogrifier` - Transmogrifier
570 * `web_push` - Web push notifications
571 * `scheduled_activities` - Scheduled activities, see [`Pleroma.ScheduledActivity`](#pleromascheduledactivity)
572
573 #### Oban.Cron
574
575 Pleroma has these periodic job workers:
576
577 `Pleroma.Workers.Cron.ClearOauthTokenWorker` - a job worker to cleanup expired oauth tokens.
578
579 Example:
580
581 ```elixir
582 config :pleroma, Oban,
583 repo: Pleroma.Repo,
584 verbose: false,
585 prune: {:maxlen, 1500},
586 queues: [
587 federator_incoming: 50,
588 federator_outgoing: 50
589 ],
590 crontab: [
591 {"0 0 * * *", Pleroma.Workers.Cron.ClearOauthTokenWorker}
592 ]
593 ```
594
595 This config contains two queues: `federator_incoming` and `federator_outgoing`. Both have the number of max concurrent jobs set to `50`.
596
597 #### Migrating `pleroma_job_queue` settings
598
599 `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).
600
601 ### :workers
602
603 Includes custom worker options not interpretable directly by `Oban`.
604
605 * `retries` — keyword lists where keys are `Oban` queues (see above) and values are numbers of max attempts for failed jobs.
606
607 Example:
608
609 ```elixir
610 config :pleroma, :workers,
611 retries: [
612 federator_incoming: 5,
613 federator_outgoing: 5
614 ]
615 ```
616
617 #### Migrating `Pleroma.Web.Federator.RetryQueue` settings
618
619 * `max_retries` is replaced with `config :pleroma, :workers, retries: [federator_outgoing: 5]`
620 * `enabled: false` corresponds to `config :pleroma, :workers, retries: [federator_outgoing: 1]`
621 * deprecated options: `max_jobs`, `initial_timeout`
622
623 ### Pleroma.Scheduler
624
625 Configuration for [Quantum](https://github.com/quantum-elixir/quantum-core) jobs scheduler.
626
627 See [Quantum readme](https://github.com/quantum-elixir/quantum-core#usage) for the list of supported options.
628
629 Example:
630
631 ```elixir
632 config :pleroma, Pleroma.Scheduler,
633 global: true,
634 overlap: true,
635 timezone: :utc,
636 jobs: [{"0 */6 * * * *", {Pleroma.Web.Websub, :refresh_subscriptions, []}}]
637 ```
638
639 The above example defines a single job which invokes `Pleroma.Web.Websub.refresh_subscriptions()` every 6 hours ("0 */6 * * * *", [crontab format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron)).
640
641 ## :web_push_encryption, :vapid_details
642
643 Web Push Notifications configuration. You can use the mix task `mix web_push.gen.keypair` to generate it.
644
645 * ``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.
646 * ``public_key``: VAPID public key
647 * ``private_key``: VAPID private key
648
649 ## :logger
650 * `backends`: `:console` is used to send logs to stdout, `{ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}` to log to syslog, and `Quack.Logger` to log to Slack
651
652 An example to enable ONLY ExSyslogger (f/ex in ``prod.secret.exs``) with info and debug suppressed:
653 ```elixir
654 config :logger,
655 backends: [{ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}]
656
657 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
658 level: :warn
659 ```
660
661 Another example, keeping console output and adding the pid to syslog output:
662 ```elixir
663 config :logger,
664 backends: [:console, {ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}]
665
666 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
667 level: :warn,
668 option: [:pid, :ndelay]
669 ```
670
671 See: [logger’s documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/logger/Logger.html) and [ex_syslogger’s documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/ex_syslogger/)
672
673 An example of logging info to local syslog, but warn to a Slack channel:
674 ```elixir
675 config :logger,
676 backends: [ {ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}, Quack.Logger ],
677 level: :info
678
679 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
680 level: :info,
681 ident: "pleroma",
682 format: "$metadata[$level] $message"
683
684 config :quack,
685 level: :warn,
686 meta: [:all],
687 webhook_url: "https://hooks.slack.com/services/YOUR-API-KEY-HERE"
688 ```
689
690 See the [Quack Github](https://github.com/azohra/quack) for more details
691
692
693
694 ## Database options
695
696 ### RUM indexing for full text search
697
698 !!! warning
699 It is recommended to use PostgreSQL v11 or newer. We have seen some minor issues with lower PostgreSQL versions.
700
701 * `rum_enabled`: If RUM indexes should be used. Defaults to `false`.
702
703 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.
704
705 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.
706
707 To enable them, both the `rum_enabled` flag has to be set and the following special migration has to be run:
708
709 `mix ecto.migrate --migrations-path priv/repo/optional_migrations/rum_indexing/`
710
711 This will probably take a long time.
712
713 ## Alternative client protocols
714
715 ### BBS / SSH access
716
717 To enable simple command line interface accessible over ssh, add a setting like this to your configuration file:
718
719 ```exs
720 app_dir = File.cwd!
721 priv_dir = Path.join([app_dir, "priv/ssh_keys"])
722
723 config :esshd,
724 enabled: true,
725 priv_dir: priv_dir,
726 handler: "Pleroma.BBS.Handler",
727 port: 10_022,
728 password_authenticator: "Pleroma.BBS.Authenticator"
729 ```
730
731 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`
732
733 ### :gopher
734 * `enabled`: Enables the gopher interface
735 * `ip`: IP address to bind to
736 * `port`: Port to bind to
737 * `dstport`: Port advertised in urls (optional, defaults to `port`)
738
739
740 ## Authentication
741
742 ### :admin_token
743
744 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:
745
746 ```elixir
747 config :pleroma, :admin_token, "somerandomtoken"
748 ```
749
750 You can then do
751
752 ```shell
753 curl "http://localhost:4000/api/pleroma/admin/users/invites?admin_token=somerandomtoken"
754 ```
755
756 or
757
758 ```shell
759 curl -H "X-Admin-Token: somerandomtoken" "http://localhost:4000/api/pleroma/admin/users/invites"
760 ```
761
762 ### :auth
763
764 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.PleromaAuthenticator`: default database authenticator.
765 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.LDAPAuthenticator`: LDAP authentication.
766
767 Authentication / authorization settings.
768
769 * `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`.
770 * `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`.
771 * `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>`).
772
773 ### Pleroma.Web.Auth.Authenticator
774
775 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.PleromaAuthenticator`: default database authenticator.
776 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.LDAPAuthenticator`: LDAP authentication.
777
778 ### :ldap
779
780 Use LDAP for user authentication. When a user logs in to the Pleroma
781 instance, the name and password will be verified by trying to authenticate
782 (bind) to an LDAP server. If a user exists in the LDAP directory but there
783 is no account with the same name yet on the Pleroma instance then a new
784 Pleroma account will be created with the same name as the LDAP user name.
785
786 * `enabled`: enables LDAP authentication
787 * `host`: LDAP server hostname
788 * `port`: LDAP port, e.g. 389 or 636
789 * `ssl`: true to use SSL, usually implies the port 636
790 * `sslopts`: additional SSL options
791 * `tls`: true to start TLS, usually implies the port 389
792 * `tlsopts`: additional TLS options
793 * `base`: LDAP base, e.g. "dc=example,dc=com"
794 * `uid`: LDAP attribute name to authenticate the user, e.g. when "cn", the filter will be "cn=username,base"
795
796 ### OAuth consumer mode
797
798 OAuth consumer mode allows sign in / sign up via external OAuth providers (e.g. Twitter, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, etc.).
799 Implementation is based on Ueberauth; see the list of [available strategies](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth/wiki/List-of-Strategies).
800
801 !!! note
802 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.
803
804 !!! note
805 Each strategy requires separate setup (on external provider side and Pleroma side). Below are the guidelines on setting up most popular strategies.
806
807 !!! note
808 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"`
809
810 * For Twitter, [register an app](https://developer.twitter.com/en/apps), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/twitter/callback
811
812 * 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/
813
814 * For Google, [register an app](https://console.developers.google.com), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/google/callback
815
816 * For Microsoft, [register an app](https://portal.azure.com), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/microsoft/callback
817
818 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`,
819 per strategy's documentation (e.g. [ueberauth_twitter](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth_twitter)). Example config basing on environment variables:
820
821 ```elixir
822 # Twitter
823 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Twitter.OAuth,
824 consumer_key: System.get_env("TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY"),
825 consumer_secret: System.get_env("TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET")

841 client_id: System.get_env("MICROSOFT_CLIENT_ID"),
842 client_secret: System.get_env("MICROSOFT_CLIENT_SECRET")
843
844 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
845 providers: [
846 microsoft: {Ueberauth.Strategy.Microsoft, [callback_params: []]}
847 ]
848
849 # Keycloak
850 # Note: make sure to add `keycloak:ueberauth_keycloak_strategy` entry to `OAUTH_CONSUMER_STRATEGIES` environment variable
851 keycloak_url = "https://publicly-reachable-keycloak-instance.org:8080"
852
853 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Keycloak.OAuth,
854 client_id: System.get_env("KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_ID"),
855 client_secret: System.get_env("KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_SECRET"),
856 site: keycloak_url,
857 authorize_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/auth",
858 token_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/token",
859 userinfo_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/userinfo",
860 token_method: :post
861
862 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
863 providers: [
864 keycloak: {Ueberauth.Strategy.Keycloak, [uid_field: :email]}
865 ]
866 ```
867
868 ### OAuth 2.0 provider - :oauth2
869
870 Configure OAuth 2 provider capabilities:
871
872 * `token_expires_in` - The lifetime in seconds of the access token.
873 * `issue_new_refresh_token` - Keeps old refresh token or generate new refresh token when to obtain an access token.
874 * `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)
875
876 ## Link parsing
877
878 ### :uri_schemes
879 * `valid_schemes`: List of the scheme part that is considered valid to be an URL.
880
881 ### :auto_linker
882
883 Configuration for the `auto_linker` library:
884
885 * `class: "auto-linker"` - specify the class to be added to the generated link. false to clear.
886 * `rel: "noopener noreferrer"` - override the rel attribute. false to clear.
887 * `new_window: true` - set to false to remove `target='_blank'` attribute.
888 * `scheme: false` - Set to true to link urls with schema `http://google.com`.
