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.

355 ### :rate_limit
356
357 !!! note
358 If your instance is behind a reverse proxy ensure [`Pleroma.Plugs.RemoteIp`](#pleroma-plugs-remoteip) is enabled (it is enabled by default).
359
360 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:
361
362 * The first element: `scale` (Integer). The time scale in milliseconds.
363 * The second element: `limit` (Integer). How many requests to limit in the time scale provided.
364
365 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.
366

375 Means that:
376
377 1. In 60 seconds, 15 authentication attempts can be performed from the same IP address.
378 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.
379
380 Supported rate limiters:

409 * `user_agent`: what user agent should we use? (default: `:default`), must be string or `:default`
410 * `adapter`: array of adapter options
411
412 ### :hackney_pools
413
414 Advanced. Tweaks Hackney (http client) connections pools.
415
416 There's three pools used:
417
418 * `:federation` for the federation jobs.
419 You may want this pool max_connections to be at least equal to the number of federator jobs + retry queue jobs.
420 * `:media` for rich media, media proxy
421 * `:upload` for uploaded media (if using a remote uploader and `proxy_remote: true`)
422
423 For each pool, the options are:
424
425 * `max_connections` - how much connections a pool can hold
426 * `timeout` - retention duration for connections
427
428
429 ### :connections_pool
430
431 *For `gun` adapter*
432
433 Advanced settings for connections pool. Pool with opened connections. These connections can be reused in worker pools.
434
435 For big instances it's recommended to increase `config :pleroma, :connections_pool, max_connections: 500` up to 500-1000.
436 It will increase memory usage, but federation would work faster.
437
438 * `:checkin_timeout` - timeout to checkin connection from pool. Default: 250ms.
439 * `:max_connections` - maximum number of connections in the pool. Default: 250 connections.
440 * `:retry` - number of retries, while `gun` will try to reconnect if connection goes down. Default: 1.
441 * `:retry_timeout` - time between retries when `gun` will try to reconnect in milliseconds. Default: 1000ms.
442 * `:await_up_timeout` - timeout while `gun` will wait until connection is up. Default: 5000ms.
443
444 ### :pools
445
446 *For `gun` adapter*
447
448 Advanced settings for workers pools.
449
450 There are four pools used:
451
452 * `:federation` for the federation jobs.
453 You may want this pool max_connections to be at least equal to the number of federator jobs + retry queue jobs.
454 * `:media` for rich media, media proxy
455 * `:upload` for uploaded media (if using a remote uploader and `proxy_remote: true`)
456 * `:default` for other requests
457
458 For each pool, the options are:
459
460 * `:size` - how much workers the pool can hold
461 * `:timeout` - timeout while `gun` will wait for response
462 * `:max_overflow` - additional workers if pool is under load
463
464
465 ## Captcha
466
467 ### Pleroma.Captcha
468
469 * `enabled`: Whether the captcha should be shown on registration.
470 * `method`: The method/service to use for captcha.
471 * `seconds_valid`: The time in seconds for which the captcha is valid.
472
473 ### Captcha providers
474
475 #### Pleroma.Captcha.Native
476
477 A built-in captcha provider. Enabled by default.
478
479 #### Pleroma.Captcha.Kocaptcha
480
481 Kocaptcha is a very simple captcha service with a single API endpoint,
482 the source code is here: https://github.com/koto-bank/kocaptcha. The default endpoint
483 `https://captcha.kotobank.ch` is hosted by the developer.
484
485 * `endpoint`: the Kocaptcha endpoint to use.
486
487 ## Uploads
488
489 ### Pleroma.Upload
490 * `uploader`: Which one of the [uploaders](#uploaders) to use.
491 * `filters`: List of [upload filters](#upload-filters) to use.
492 * `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`
493 * `base_url`: The base URL to access a user-uploaded file. Useful when you want to proxy the media files via another host.
494 * `proxy_remote`: If you're using a remote uploader, Pleroma will proxy media requests instead of redirecting to it.
495 * `proxy_opts`: Proxy options, see `Pleroma.ReverseProxy` documentation.
496
497 !!! warning
498 `strip_exif` has been replaced by `Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Mogrify`.
499
500 ### Uploaders
501 #### Pleroma.Uploaders.Local
502 * `uploads`: Which directory to store the user-uploads in, relative to pleroma’s working directory.

506 * `bucket_namespace`: S3 bucket namespace.
507 * `public_endpoint`: S3 endpoint that the user finally accesses(ex. "https://s3.dualstack.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com")
508 * `truncated_namespace`: If you use S3 compatible service such as Digital Ocean Spaces or CDN, set folder name or "" etc.
509 For example, when using CDN to S3 virtual host format, set "".
510 At this time, write CNAME to CDN in public_endpoint.
511 * `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.
512
513
514 ### Upload filters
515
516 #### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Mogrify
517
518 * `args`: List of actions for the `mogrify` command like `"strip"` or `["strip", "auto-orient", {"implode", "1"}]`.

521
522 No specific configuration.
523
524 #### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.AnonymizeFilename
525
526 This filter replaces the filename (not the path) of an upload. For complete obfuscation, add
527 `Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Dedupe` before AnonymizeFilename.
528
529 * `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}`.
530
531 ## Email
532
533 ### Pleroma.Emails.Mailer
534 * `adapter`: one of the mail adapters listed in [Swoosh readme](https://github.com/swoosh/swoosh#adapters), or `Swoosh.Adapters.Local` for in-memory mailbox.
535 * `api_key` / `password` and / or other adapter-specific settings, per the above documentation.
536 * `enabled`: Allows enable/disable send emails. Default: `false`.
537
538 An example for Sendgrid adapter:
539
540 ```elixir
541 config :pleroma, Pleroma.Emails.Mailer,
542 enabled: true,
543 adapter: Swoosh.Adapters.Sendgrid,
544 api_key: "YOUR_API_KEY"
545 ```
546
547 An example for SMTP adapter:

581
582 ## Background jobs
583
584 ### Oban
585
586 [Oban](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban) asynchronous job processor configuration.
587
588 Configuration options described in [Oban readme](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban#usage):
589
590 * `repo` - app's Ecto repo (`Pleroma.Repo`)
591 * `verbose` - logs verbosity
592 * `prune` - non-retryable jobs [pruning settings](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban#pruning) (`:disabled` / `{:maxlen, value}` / `{:maxage, value}`)
593 * `queues` - job queues (see below)
594 * `crontab` - periodic jobs, see [`Oban.Cron`](#obancron)
595
596 Pleroma has the following queues:
597
598 * `activity_expiration` - Activity expiration
599 * `federator_outgoing` - Outgoing federation
600 * `federator_incoming` - Incoming federation
601 * `mailer` - Email sender, see [`Pleroma.Emails.Mailer`](#pleromaemailsmailer)
602 * `transmogrifier` - Transmogrifier
603 * `web_push` - Web push notifications
604 * `scheduled_activities` - Scheduled activities, see [`Pleroma.ScheduledActivity`](#pleromascheduledactivity)
605
606 #### Oban.Cron
607
608 Pleroma has these periodic job workers:
609
610 `Pleroma.Workers.Cron.ClearOauthTokenWorker` - a job worker to cleanup expired oauth tokens.
611
612 Example:
613
614 ```elixir
615 config :pleroma, Oban,
616 repo: Pleroma.Repo,
617 verbose: false,
618 prune: {:maxlen, 1500},
619 queues: [
620 federator_incoming: 50,
621 federator_outgoing: 50
622 ],
623 crontab: [
624 {"0 0 * * *", Pleroma.Workers.Cron.ClearOauthTokenWorker}
625 ]
626 ```
627
628 This config contains two queues: `federator_incoming` and `federator_outgoing`. Both have the number of max concurrent jobs set to `50`.
629
630 #### Migrating `pleroma_job_queue` settings
631
632 `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).
633
634 ### :workers
635
636 Includes custom worker options not interpretable directly by `Oban`.
637
638 * `retries` — keyword lists where keys are `Oban` queues (see above) and values are numbers of max attempts for failed jobs.
639
640 Example:
641
642 ```elixir
643 config :pleroma, :workers,
644 retries: [
645 federator_incoming: 5,
646 federator_outgoing: 5
647 ]
648 ```
649
650 #### Migrating `Pleroma.Web.Federator.RetryQueue` settings
651
652 * `max_retries` is replaced with `config :pleroma, :workers, retries: [federator_outgoing: 5]`
653 * `enabled: false` corresponds to `config :pleroma, :workers, retries: [federator_outgoing: 1]`
654 * deprecated options: `max_jobs`, `initial_timeout`
655
656 ### Pleroma.Scheduler
657
658 Configuration for [Quantum](https://github.com/quantum-elixir/quantum-core) jobs scheduler.
659
660 See [Quantum readme](https://github.com/quantum-elixir/quantum-core#usage) for the list of supported options.
661
662 Example:
663
664 ```elixir
665 config :pleroma, Pleroma.Scheduler,
666 global: true,
667 overlap: true,
668 timezone: :utc,
669 jobs: [{"0 */6 * * * *", {Pleroma.Web.Websub, :refresh_subscriptions, []}}]
670 ```
671
672 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)).
673
674 ## :web_push_encryption, :vapid_details
675
676 Web Push Notifications configuration. You can use the mix task `mix web_push.gen.keypair` to generate it.
677
678 * ``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.
679 * ``public_key``: VAPID public key
680 * ``private_key``: VAPID private key
681
682 ## :logger
683 * `backends`: `:console` is used to send logs to stdout, `{ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}` to log to syslog, and `Quack.Logger` to log to Slack
684
685 An example to enable ONLY ExSyslogger (f/ex in ``prod.secret.exs``) with info and debug suppressed:
686 ```elixir
687 config :logger,
688 backends: [{ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}]
689
690 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
691 level: :warn
692 ```
693
694 Another example, keeping console output and adding the pid to syslog output:
695 ```elixir
696 config :logger,
697 backends: [:console, {ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}]
698
699 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
700 level: :warn,
701 option: [:pid, :ndelay]
702 ```
703
704 See: [logger’s documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/logger/Logger.html) and [ex_syslogger’s documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/ex_syslogger/)
705
706 An example of logging info to local syslog, but warn to a Slack channel:
707 ```elixir
708 config :logger,
709 backends: [ {ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}, Quack.Logger ],
710 level: :info
711
712 config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
713 level: :info,
714 ident: "pleroma",
715 format: "$metadata[$level] $message"
716
717 config :quack,
718 level: :warn,
719 meta: [:all],
720 webhook_url: "https://hooks.slack.com/services/YOUR-API-KEY-HERE"
721 ```
722
723 See the [Quack Github](https://github.com/azohra/quack) for more details
724
725
726
727 ## Database options
728
729 ### RUM indexing for full text search
730
731 !!! warning
732 It is recommended to use PostgreSQL v11 or newer. We have seen some minor issues with lower PostgreSQL versions.
733
734 * `rum_enabled`: If RUM indexes should be used. Defaults to `false`.
735
736 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.
737
738 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.
739
740 To enable them, both the `rum_enabled` flag has to be set and the following special migration has to be run:
741
742 `mix ecto.migrate --migrations-path priv/repo/optional_migrations/rum_indexing/`
743
744 This will probably take a long time.
745
746 ## Alternative client protocols
747
748 ### BBS / SSH access
749
750 To enable simple command line interface accessible over ssh, add a setting like this to your configuration file:
751
752 ```exs
753 app_dir = File.cwd!
754 priv_dir = Path.join([app_dir, "priv/ssh_keys"])
755
756 config :esshd,
757 enabled: true,
758 priv_dir: priv_dir,
759 handler: "Pleroma.BBS.Handler",
760 port: 10_022,
761 password_authenticator: "Pleroma.BBS.Authenticator"
762 ```
763
764 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`
765
766 ### :gopher
767 * `enabled`: Enables the gopher interface
768 * `ip`: IP address to bind to
769 * `port`: Port to bind to
770 * `dstport`: Port advertised in urls (optional, defaults to `port`)
771
772
773 ## Authentication
774
775 ### :admin_token
776
777 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:
778
779 ```elixir
780 config :pleroma, :admin_token, "somerandomtoken"
781 ```
782
783 You can then do
784
785 ```shell
786 curl "http://localhost:4000/api/pleroma/admin/users/invites?admin_token=somerandomtoken"
787 ```
788
789 or
790
791 ```shell
792 curl -H "X-Admin-Token: somerandomtoken" "http://localhost:4000/api/pleroma/admin/users/invites"
793 ```
794
795 ### :auth
796
797 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.PleromaAuthenticator`: default database authenticator.
798 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.LDAPAuthenticator`: LDAP authentication.
799
800 Authentication / authorization settings.
801
802 * `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`.
803 * `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`.
804 * `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>`).
805
806 ### Pleroma.Web.Auth.Authenticator
807
808 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.PleromaAuthenticator`: default database authenticator.
809 * `Pleroma.Web.Auth.LDAPAuthenticator`: LDAP authentication.
810
811 ### :ldap
812
813 Use LDAP for user authentication. When a user logs in to the Pleroma
814 instance, the name and password will be verified by trying to authenticate
815 (bind) to an LDAP server. If a user exists in the LDAP directory but there
816 is no account with the same name yet on the Pleroma instance then a new
817 Pleroma account will be created with the same name as the LDAP user name.
818
819 * `enabled`: enables LDAP authentication
820 * `host`: LDAP server hostname
821 * `port`: LDAP port, e.g. 389 or 636
822 * `ssl`: true to use SSL, usually implies the port 636
823 * `sslopts`: additional SSL options
824 * `tls`: true to start TLS, usually implies the port 389
825 * `tlsopts`: additional TLS options
826 * `base`: LDAP base, e.g. "dc=example,dc=com"
827 * `uid`: LDAP attribute name to authenticate the user, e.g. when "cn", the filter will be "cn=username,base"
828
829 ### OAuth consumer mode
830
831 OAuth consumer mode allows sign in / sign up via external OAuth providers (e.g. Twitter, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, etc.).
832 Implementation is based on Ueberauth; see the list of [available strategies](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth/wiki/List-of-Strategies).
833
834 !!! note
835 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.
836
837 !!! note
838 Each strategy requires separate setup (on external provider side and Pleroma side). Below are the guidelines on setting up most popular strategies.
839
840 !!! note
841 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"`
842
843 * For Twitter, [register an app](https://developer.twitter.com/en/apps), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/twitter/callback
844
845 * 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/
846
847 * For Google, [register an app](https://console.developers.google.com), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/google/callback
848
849 * For Microsoft, [register an app](https://portal.azure.com), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/microsoft/callback
850
851 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`,
852 per strategy's documentation (e.g. [ueberauth_twitter](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth_twitter)). Example config basing on environment variables:
853
854 ```elixir
855 # Twitter
856 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Twitter.OAuth,
857 consumer_key: System.get_env("TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY"),
858 consumer_secret: System.get_env("TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET")
859

874 client_id: System.get_env("MICROSOFT_CLIENT_ID"),
875 client_secret: System.get_env("MICROSOFT_CLIENT_SECRET")
876
877 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
878 providers: [
879 microsoft: {Ueberauth.Strategy.Microsoft, [callback_params: []]}
880 ]
881
882 # Keycloak
883 # Note: make sure to add `keycloak:ueberauth_keycloak_strategy` entry to `OAUTH_CONSUMER_STRATEGIES` environment variable
884 keycloak_url = "https://publicly-reachable-keycloak-instance.org:8080"
885
886 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Keycloak.OAuth,
887 client_id: System.get_env("KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_ID"),
888 client_secret: System.get_env("KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_SECRET"),
889 site: keycloak_url,
890 authorize_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/auth",
891 token_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/token",
892 userinfo_url: "#{keycloak_url}/auth/realms/master/protocol/openid-connect/userinfo",
893 token_method: :post
894
895 config :ueberauth, Ueberauth,
896 providers: [
897 keycloak: {Ueberauth.Strategy.Keycloak, [uid_field: :email]}
898 ]
899 ```
900
901 ### OAuth 2.0 provider - :oauth2

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