# Configuration
This file describe the configuration, it is recommended to edit the relevant *.secret.exs file instead of the others founds in the ``config`` directory.
If you run Pleroma with ``MIX_ENV=prod`` the file is ``prod.secret.exs``, otherwise it is ``dev.secret.exs``.
## Pleroma.Upload
* `uploader`: Select which `Pleroma.Uploaders` to use
* `filters`: List of `Pleroma.Upload.Filter` to use.
* `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`
* `base_url`: The base URL to access a user-uploaded file. Useful when you want to proxy the media files via another host.
* `proxy_remote`: If you\'re using a remote uploader, Pleroma will proxy media requests instead of redirecting to it.
* `proxy_opts`: Proxy options, see `Pleroma.ReverseProxy` documentation.
Note: `strip_exif` has been replaced by `Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Mogrify`.
## Pleroma.Uploaders.Local
* `uploads`: Which directory to store the user-uploads in, relative to pleroma’s working directory
## Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Mogrify
* `args`: List of actions for the `mogrify` command like `"strip"` or `["strip", "auto-orient", {"impode", "1"}]`.
## Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Dedupe
No specific configuration.
## Pleroma.Upload.Filter.AnonymizeFilename
This filter replaces the filename (not the path) of an upload. For complete obfuscation, add
`Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Dedupe` before AnonymizeFilename.
* `text`: Text to replace filenames in links. If empty, `{random}.extension` will be used.
## Pleroma.Mailer
* `adapter`: one of the mail adapters listed in [Swoosh readme](https://github.com/swoosh/swoosh#adapters), or `Swoosh.Adapters.Local` for in-memory mailbox.
* `api_key` / `password` and / or other adapter-specific settings, per the above documentation.
An example for Sendgrid adapter:
```exs
config :pleroma, Pleroma.Mailer,
adapter: Swoosh.Adapters.Sendgrid,
api_key: "YOUR_API_KEY"
```
An example for SMTP adapter:
```exs
config :pleroma, Pleroma.Mailer,
adapter: Swoosh.Adapters.SMTP,
relay: "smtp.gmail.com",
username: "YOUR_USERNAME@gmail.com",
password: "YOUR_SMTP_PASSWORD",
port: 465,

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

* `providers`: a list of metadata providers to enable. Providers available:
* `Pleroma.Web.Metadata.Providers.OpenGraph`
* `Pleroma.Web.Metadata.Providers.TwitterCard`
* `unfurl_nsfw`: If set to `true` nsfw attachments will be shown in previews.
### :rich_media (consumer)
* `enabled`: if enabled the instance will parse metadata from attached links to generate link previews.
* `ignore_hosts`: list of hosts which will be ignored by the metadata parser. For example `["accounts.google.com", "xss.website"]`, defaults to `[]`.
* `ignore_tld`: list TLDs (top-level domains) which will ignore for parse metadata. default is ["local", "localdomain", "lan"].
* `parsers`: list of Rich Media parsers.
* `timeout`: Amount of milliseconds after which the HTTP request is forcibly terminated.
## HTTP server
### Pleroma.Web.Endpoint
!!! note
`Phoenix` endpoint configuration, all configuration options can be viewed [here](https://hexdocs.pm/phoenix/Phoenix.Endpoint.html#module-dynamic-configuration), only common options are listed here.
* `http` - a list containing http protocol configuration, all configuration options can be viewed [here](https://hexdocs.pm/plug_cowboy/Plug.Cowboy.html#module-options), only common options are listed here. For deployment using docker, you need to set this to `[ip: {0,0,0,0}, port: 4000]` to make pleroma accessible from other containers (such as your nginx server).
- `ip` - a tuple consisting of 4 integers
- `port`
* `url` - a list containing the configuration for generating urls, accepts
- `host` - the host without the scheme and a post (e.g `example.com`, not `https://example.com:2020`)
- `scheme` - e.g `http`, `https`
- `port`
- `path`
* `extra_cookie_attrs` - a list of `Key=Value` strings to be added as non-standard cookie attributes. Defaults to `["SameSite=Lax"]`. See the [SameSite article](https://www.owasp.org/index.php/SameSite) on OWASP for more info.
Example:
```elixir
config :pleroma, Pleroma.Web.Endpoint,
url: [host: "example.com", port: 2020, scheme: "https"],
http: [
port: 8080,
ip: {127, 0, 0, 1}
]
```
This will make Pleroma listen on `127.0.0.1` port `8080` and generate urls starting with `https://example.com:2020`
### :http_security
* ``enabled``: Whether the managed content security policy is enabled.
* ``sts``: Whether to additionally send a `Strict-Transport-Security` header.
* ``sts_max_age``: The maximum age for the `Strict-Transport-Security` header if sent.
* ``ct_max_age``: The maximum age for the `Expect-CT` header if sent.
* ``referrer_policy``: The referrer policy to use, either `"same-origin"` or `"no-referrer"`.
* ``report_uri``: Adds the specified url to `report-uri` and `report-to` group in CSP header.
* `allow_unsafe_eval`: Adds `wasm-unsafe-eval` to the CSP header. Needed for some non-essential frontend features like Flash emulation.
### Pleroma.Web.Plugs.RemoteIp
!!! warning
If your instance is not behind at least one reverse proxy, you should not enable this plug.
`Pleroma.Web.Plugs.RemoteIp` is a shim to call [`RemoteIp`](https://git.pleroma.social/pleroma/remote_ip) but with runtime configuration.
Available options:
* `enabled` - Enable/disable the plug. Defaults to `false`.
* `headers` - A list of strings naming the HTTP headers to use when deriving the true client IP address. Defaults to `["x-forwarded-for"]`.
* `proxies` - A list of upstream proxy IP subnets in CIDR notation from which we will parse the content of `headers`. Defaults to `[]`. IPv4 entries without a bitmask will be assumed to be /32 and IPv6 /128.
* `reserved` - A list of reserved IP subnets in CIDR notation which should be ignored if found in `headers`. Defaults to `["127.0.0.0/8", "::1/128", "fc00::/7", "10.0.0.0/8", "172.16.0.0/12", "192.168.0.0/16"]`.
### :rate_limit
!!! note
If your instance is behind a reverse proxy ensure [`Pleroma.Web.Plugs.RemoteIp`](#pleroma-plugs-remoteip) is enabled (it is enabled by default).
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:
* The first element: `scale` (Integer). The time scale in milliseconds.
* The second element: `limit` (Integer). How many requests to limit in the time scale provided.
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.
For example:
```elixir
config :pleroma, :rate_limit,
authentication: {60_000, 15},
search: [{1000, 10}, {1000, 30}]
```
Means that:
1. In 60 seconds, 15 authentication attempts can be performed from the same IP address.
2. In 1 second, 10 search requests can be performed from the same IP address by unauthenticated users, while authenticated users can perform 30 search requests per second.
Supported rate limiters:
* `:search` - Account/Status search.
* `:timeline` - Timeline requests (each timeline has it's own limiter).
* `:app_account_creation` - Account registration from the API.
* `:relations_actions` - Following/Unfollowing in general.
* `:relation_id_action` - Following/Unfollowing for a specific user.
* `:statuses_actions` - Status actions such as: (un)repeating, (un)favouriting, creating, deleting.
* `:status_id_action` - (un)Repeating/(un)Favouriting a particular status.
* `:authentication` - Authentication actions, i.e getting an OAuth token.
* `:password_reset` - Requesting password reset emails.
* `:account_confirmation_resend` - Requesting resending account confirmation emails.
* `:ap_routes` - Requesting statuses via ActivityPub.
### :web_cache_ttl
The expiration time for the web responses cache. Values should be in milliseconds or `nil` to disable expiration.
Available caches:
* `:activity_pub` - activity pub routes (except question activities). Defaults to `nil` (no expiration).
* `:activity_pub_question` - activity pub routes (question activities). Defaults to `30_000` (30 seconds).
## HTTP client
### :http
* `proxy_url`: an upstream proxy to fetch posts and/or media with, (default: `nil`)
* `send_user_agent`: should we include a user agent with HTTP requests? (default: `true`)
* `user_agent`: what user agent should we use? (default: `:default`), must be string or `:default`
* `adapter`: array of adapter options
### :hackney_pools
Advanced. Tweaks Hackney (http client) connections pools.
There's three pools used:
* `:federation` for the federation jobs.
You may want this pool max_connections to be at least equal to the number of federator jobs + retry queue jobs.
* `:media` for rich media, media proxy
* `:upload` for uploaded media (if using a remote uploader and `proxy_remote: true`)
For each pool, the options are:
* `max_connections` - how much connections a pool can hold
* `timeout` - retention duration for connections
### :connections_pool
*For `gun` adapter*
Settings for HTTP connection pool.
* `:connection_acquisition_wait` - Timeout to acquire a connection from pool.The total max time is this value multiplied by the number of retries.
* `connection_acquisition_retries` - Number of attempts to acquire the connection from the pool if it is overloaded. Each attempt is timed `:connection_acquisition_wait` apart.
* `:max_connections` - Maximum number of connections in the pool.
* `:connect_timeout` - Timeout to connect to the host.
* `:reclaim_multiplier` - Multiplied by `:max_connections` this will be the maximum number of idle connections that will be reclaimed in case the pool is overloaded.
### :pools
*For `gun` adapter*
Settings for request pools. These pools are limited on top of `:connections_pool`.
There are four pools used:
* `:federation` for the federation jobs. You may want this pool's max_connections to be at least equal to the number of federator jobs + retry queue jobs.
* `:media` - for rich media, media proxy.
* `:upload` - for proxying media when a remote uploader is used and `proxy_remote: true`.
* `:default` - for other requests.
For each pool, the options are:
* `:size` - limit to how much requests can be concurrently executed.
* `:recv_timeout` - timeout while `gun` will wait for response
* `:max_waiting` - limit to how much requests can be waiting for others to finish, after this is reached, subsequent requests will be dropped.

* `endpoint`: the Kocaptcha endpoint to use.
## Uploads
### Pleroma.Upload
* `uploader`: Which one of the [uploaders](#uploaders) to use.
* `filters`: List of [upload filters](#upload-filters) to use.
* `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`
* `base_url`: The base URL to access a user-uploaded file. Useful when you want to host the media files via another domain or are using a 3rd party S3 provider.
* `proxy_remote`: If you're using a remote uploader, Pleroma will proxy media requests instead of redirecting to it.
* `proxy_opts`: Proxy options, see `Pleroma.ReverseProxy` documentation.
* `filename_display_max_length`: Set max length of a filename to display. 0 = no limit. Default: 30.
* `default_description`: Sets which default description an image has if none is set explicitly. Options: nil (default) - Don't set a default, :filename - use the filename of the file, a string (e.g. "attachment") - Use this string
!!! warning

```
### Upload filters
#### Pleroma.Upload.Filter.AnonymizeFilename
This filter replaces the filename (not the path) of an upload. For complete obfuscation, add
`Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Dedupe` before AnonymizeFilename.
* `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}`.

```
### :email_notifications
Email notifications settings.
- digest - emails of "what you've missed" for users who have been
inactive for a while.
- active: globally enable or disable digest emails
- schedule: When to send digest email, in [crontab format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron).
"0 0 * * 0" is the default, meaning "once a week at midnight on Sunday morning"
- interval: Minimum interval between digest emails to one user

- `:styling` - a map with color settings for email templates.
### Pleroma.Emails.NewUsersDigestEmail
- `:enabled` - a boolean, enables new users admin digest email when `true`. Defaults to `false`.
## Background jobs
### Oban
[Oban](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban) asynchronous job processor configuration.
Configuration options described in [Oban readme](https://github.com/sorentwo/oban#usage):
* `repo` - app's Ecto repo (`Pleroma.Repo`)
* `log` - logs verbosity
* `queues` - job queues (see below)
* `crontab` - periodic jobs, see [`Oban.Cron`](#obancron)
Pleroma has the following queues:
* `activity_expiration` - Activity expiration
* `federator_outgoing` - Outgoing federation
* `federator_incoming` - Incoming federation
* `mailer` - Email sender, see [`Pleroma.Emails.Mailer`](#pleromaemailsmailer)
* `transmogrifier` - Transmogrifier
* `web_push` - Web push notifications
* `scheduled_activities` - Scheduled activities, see [`Pleroma.ScheduledActivity`](#pleromascheduledactivity)
#### Oban.Cron
Pleroma has these periodic job workers:
* `Pleroma.Workers.Cron.DigestEmailsWorker` - digest emails for users with new mentions and follows
* `Pleroma.Workers.Cron.NewUsersDigestWorker` - digest emails for admins with new registrations
```elixir
config :pleroma, Oban,
repo: Pleroma.Repo,
verbose: false,
prune: {:maxlen, 1500},
queues: [
federator_incoming: 50,
federator_outgoing: 50
],
crontab: [
{"0 0 * * 0", Pleroma.Workers.Cron.DigestEmailsWorker},
{"0 0 * * *", Pleroma.Workers.Cron.NewUsersDigestWorker}
]
```
This config contains two queues: `federator_incoming` and `federator_outgoing`. Both have the number of max concurrent jobs set to `50`.
#### Migrating `pleroma_job_queue` settings
`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).
### :workers
Includes custom worker options not interpretable directly by `Oban`.
* `retries` — keyword lists where keys are `Oban` queues (see above) and values are numbers of max attempts for failed jobs.
Example:
```elixir
config :pleroma, :workers,
retries: [
federator_incoming: 5,
federator_outgoing: 5
]
```
#### Migrating `Pleroma.Web.Federator.RetryQueue` settings
* `max_retries` is replaced with `config :pleroma, :workers, retries: [federator_outgoing: 5]`
* `enabled: false` corresponds to `config :pleroma, :workers, retries: [federator_outgoing: 1]`
* deprecated options: `max_jobs`, `initial_timeout`
## :web_push_encryption, :vapid_details
Web Push Notifications configuration. You can use the mix task `mix web_push.gen.keypair` to generate it.
* ``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.
* ``public_key``: VAPID public key
* ``private_key``: VAPID private key
## :logger
* `backends`: `:console` is used to send logs to stdout, `{ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}` to log to syslog
An example to enable ONLY ExSyslogger (f/ex in ``prod.secret.exs``) with info and debug suppressed:
```elixir
config :logger,
backends: [{ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}]
config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
level: :warning
```
Another example, keeping console output and adding the pid to syslog output:
```elixir
config :logger,
backends: [:console, {ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}]
config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
level: :warning,
option: [:pid, :ndelay]
```
See: [logger’s documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/logger/Logger.html) and [ex_syslogger’s documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/ex_syslogger/)
An example of logging info to local syslog, but debug to console:
```elixir
config :logger,
backends: [ {ExSyslogger, :ex_syslogger}, :console ],
level: :info
config :logger, :ex_syslogger,
level: :info,
ident: "pleroma",
format: "$metadata[$level] $message"
config :logger, :console,
level: :debug,
format: "\n$time $metadata[$level] $message\n",
metadata: [:request_id]
```
## Database options
### RUM indexing for full text search
!!! warning
It is recommended to use PostgreSQL v11 or newer. We have seen some minor issues with lower PostgreSQL versions.
* `rum_enabled`: If RUM indexes should be used. Defaults to `false`.
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.
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.
To enable them, both the `rum_enabled` flag has to be set and the following special migration has to be run:
`mix ecto.migrate --migrations-path priv/repo/optional_migrations/rum_indexing/`
This will probably take a long time.
## Alternative client protocols
### BBS / SSH access
This feature has been removed from Pleroma core.
However, a client has been made and is available at https://git.pleroma.social/Duponin/sshocial.
### :gopher
* `enabled`: Enables the gopher interface
* `ip`: IP address to bind to
* `port`: Port to bind to
* `dstport`: Port advertised in urls (optional, defaults to `port`)
## Authentication
### :admin_token
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:
```elixir
config :pleroma, :admin_token, "somerandomtoken"
```
You can then do
```shell
curl "http://localhost:4000/api/v1/pleroma/admin/users/invites?admin_token=somerandomtoken"
```
or
```shell
curl -H "X-Admin-Token: somerandomtoken" "http://localhost:4000/api/v1/pleroma/admin/users/invites"
```
Warning: it's discouraged to use this feature because of the associated security risk: static / rarely changed instance-wide token is much weaker compared to email-password pair of a real admin user; consider using HTTP Basic Auth or OAuth-based authentication instead.
### :auth
Authentication / authorization settings.
* `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`.
* `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`.
* `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>`).
### Pleroma.Web.Auth.Authenticator
* `Pleroma.Web.Auth.PleromaAuthenticator`: default database authenticator.
* `Pleroma.Web.Auth.LDAPAuthenticator`: LDAP authentication.
### :ldap
Use LDAP for user authentication. When a user logs in to the Pleroma
instance, the name and password will be verified by trying to authenticate
(bind) to an LDAP server. If a user exists in the LDAP directory but there
is no account with the same name yet on the Pleroma instance then a new
Pleroma account will be created with the same name as the LDAP user name.
* `enabled`: enables LDAP authentication
* `host`: LDAP server hostname
* `port`: LDAP port, e.g. 389 or 636
* `ssl`: true to use implicit SSL/TLS, usually port 636
* `sslopts`: additional SSL options
* `tls`: true to use explicit TLS (STARTTLS), usually port 389
* `tlsopts`: additional TLS options
* `base`: LDAP base, e.g. "dc=example,dc=com"
* `uid`: LDAP attribute name to authenticate the user, e.g. when "cn", the filter will be "cn=username,base"
* `cacertfile`: Path to alternate CA root certificates file
Note, if your LDAP server is an Active Directory server the correct value is commonly `uid: "cn"`, but if you use an
OpenLDAP server the value may be `uid: "uid"`.
### :oauth2 (Pleroma as OAuth 2.0 provider settings)
OAuth 2.0 provider settings:
* `token_expires_in` - The lifetime in seconds of the access token.
* `issue_new_refresh_token` - Keeps old refresh token or generate new refresh token when to obtain an access token.
* `clean_expired_tokens` - Enable a background job to clean expired oauth tokens. Defaults to `false`.
OAuth 2.0 provider and related endpoints:
* `POST /api/v1/apps` creates client app basing on provided params.
* `GET/POST /oauth/authorize` renders/submits authorization form.
* `POST /oauth/token` creates/renews OAuth token.
* `POST /oauth/revoke` revokes provided OAuth token.
* `GET /api/v1/accounts/verify_credentials` (with proper `Authorization` header or `access_token` URI param) returns user info on requester (with `acct` field containing local nickname and `fqn` field containing fully-qualified nickname which could generally be used as email stub for OAuth software that demands email field in identity endpoint response, like Peertube).
### OAuth consumer mode
OAuth consumer mode allows sign in / sign up via external OAuth providers (e.g. Twitter, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, etc.).
Implementation is based on Ueberauth; see the list of [available strategies](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth/wiki/List-of-Strategies).
!!! note
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.
!!! note
Each strategy requires separate setup (on external provider side and Pleroma side). Below are the guidelines on setting up most popular strategies.
!!! note
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"`
* For Twitter, [register an app](https://developer.twitter.com/en/apps), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/twitter/callback
* 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/
* For Google, [register an app](https://console.developers.google.com), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/google/callback
* For Microsoft, [register an app](https://portal.azure.com), configure callback URL to https://<your_host>/oauth/microsoft/callback
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`,
per strategy's documentation (e.g. [ueberauth_twitter](https://github.com/ueberauth/ueberauth_twitter)). Example config basing on environment variables:
```elixir
# Twitter
config :ueberauth, Ueberauth.Strategy.Twitter.OAuth,
consumer_key: System.get_env("TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY"),
consumer_secret: System.get_env("TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET")

]
```
## Link parsing
### :uri_schemes
* `valid_schemes`: List of the scheme part that is considered valid to be an URL.
### Pleroma.Formatter
Configuration for Pleroma's link formatter which parses mentions, hashtags, and URLs.
* `class` - specify the class to be added to the generated link (default: `false`)
* `rel` - specify the rel attribute (default: `ugc`)
* `new_window` - adds `target="_blank"` attribute (default: `false`)
* `truncate` - Set to a number to truncate URLs longer then the number. Truncated URLs will end in `...` (default: `false`)
* `strip_prefix` - Strip the scheme prefix (default: `false`)
* `extra` - link URLs with rarely used schemes (magnet, ipfs, irc, etc.) (default: `true`)
* `validate_tld` - Set to false to disable TLD validation for URLs/emails. Can be set to :no_scheme to validate TLDs only for urls without a scheme (e.g `example.com` will be validated, but `http://example.loki` won't) (default: `:no_scheme`)
Example:
```elixir
config :pleroma, Pleroma.Formatter,
class: false,
rel: "ugc",
new_window: false,
truncate: false,
strip_prefix: false,
extra: true,
validate_tld: :no_scheme
```
## Custom Runtime Modules (`:modules`)
* `runtime_dir`: A path to custom Elixir modules (such as MRF policies).
## :configurable_from_database
Boolean, enables/disables in-database configuration. Read [Transferring the config to/from the database](../administration/CLI_tasks/config.md) for more information.
## :database_config_whitelist
List of valid configuration sections which are allowed to be configured from the
database. Settings stored in the database before the whitelist is configured are
still applied, so it is suggested to only use the whitelist on instances that
have not migrated the config to the database.
Example:
```elixir
config :pleroma, :database_config_whitelist, [
{:pleroma, :instance},
{:pleroma, Pleroma.Web.Metadata},
{:auto_linker}
]
```
### Multi-factor authentication - :two_factor_authentication
* `totp` - a list containing TOTP configuration
- `digits` - Determines the length of a one-time pass-code in characters. Defaults to 6 characters.
- `period` - a period for which the TOTP code will be valid in seconds. Defaults to 30 seconds.
* `backup_codes` - a list containing backup codes configuration
- `number` - number of backup codes to generate.
- `length` - backup code length. Defaults to 16 characters.
## Restrict entities access for unauthenticated users
### :restrict_unauthenticated
Restrict access for unauthenticated users to timelines (public and federated), user profiles and statuses.
* `timelines`: public and federated timelines
* `local`: public timeline
* `federated`: federated timeline (includes public timeline)
* `profiles`: user profiles
* `local`
* `remote`
* `activities`: statuses
* `local`
* `remote`
Note: when `:instance, :public` is set to `false`, all `:restrict_unauthenticated` items be effectively set to `true` by default. If you'd like to allow unauthenticated access to specific API endpoints on a private instance, please explicitly set `:restrict_unauthenticated` to non-default value in `config/prod.secret.exs`.
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).
## Pleroma.Web.ApiSpec.CastAndValidate
* `:strict` a boolean, enables strict input validation (useful in development, not recommended in production). Defaults to `false`.
## :instances_favicons
Control favicons for instances.
* `enabled`: Allow/disallow displaying and getting instances favicons
## Pleroma.User.Backup
!!! note
Requires enabled email
* `:purge_after_days` an integer, remove backup achieves after N days.
* `:limit_days` an integer, limit user to export not more often than once per N days.
* `:dir` a string with a path to backup temporary directory or `nil` to let Pleroma choose temporary directory in the following order:
1. the directory named by the TMPDIR environment variable
2. the directory named by the TEMP environment variable
3. the directory named by the TMP environment variable
4. C:\TMP on Windows or /tmp on Unix-like operating systems
5. as a last resort, the current working directory
* `:timeout` an integer representing seconds
## Frontend management
Frontends in Pleroma are swappable - you can specify which one to use here.
You can set a frontends for the key `primary` and `admin` and the options of `name` and `ref`. This will then make Pleroma serve the frontend from a folder constructed by concatenating the instance static path, `frontends` and the name and ref.
The key `primary` refers to the frontend that will be served by default for general requests. The key `admin` refers to the frontend that will be served at the `/pleroma/admin` path.
If you don't set anything here, the bundled frontends will be used.
Example:
```
config :pleroma, :frontends,
primary: %{
"name" => "pleroma",
"ref" => "stable"
},
admin: %{
"name" => "admin",
"ref" => "develop"
}
```
This would serve the frontend from the the folder at `$instance_static/frontends/pleroma/stable`. You have to copy the frontend into this folder yourself. You can choose the name and ref any way you like, but they will be used by mix tasks to automate installation in the future, the name referring to the project and the ref referring to a commit.
## Ephemeral activities (Pleroma.Workers.PurgeExpiredActivity)
Settings to enable and configure expiration for ephemeral activities
* `:enabled` - enables ephemeral activities creation
* `:min_lifetime` - minimum lifetime for ephemeral activities (in seconds). Default: 10 minutes.
## ConcurrentLimiter
Settings to restrict concurrently running jobs. Jobs which can be configured:
* `Pleroma.Web.RichMedia.Helpers` - generating link previews of URLs in activities
* `Pleroma.Web.ActivityPub.MRF.MediaProxyWarmingPolicy` - warming remote media cache via MediaProxyWarmingPolicy
Each job has these settings:
* `:max_running` - max concurrently runnings jobs
* `:max_waiting` - max waiting jobs
# Custom Emoji
Before you add your own custom emoji, check if they are available in an existing pack.
See `Mix.Tasks.Pleroma.Emoji` for information about emoji packs.
To add custom emoji:
* Create the `STATIC-DIR/emoji/` directory if it doesn't exist
(`STATIC-DIR` is configurable, `instance/static/` by default)
* Create a directory with whatever name you want (custom is a good name to show the purpose of it).
This will create a local emoji pack.
* Put your `.png` emoji files in that directory. In case of conflicts, you can create an `emoji.txt`
file in that directory and specify a custom shortcode using the following format:
`shortcode, file-path, tag1, tag2, etc`. One emoji per line. Note that if you do so,
you'll have to list all other emojis in the pack too.
* Either restart pleroma or connect to the iex session pleroma's running and
run `Pleroma.Emoji.reload/0` in it.
Example:
image files (in `instance/static/emoji/custom`): `happy.png` and `sad.png`
content of `emoji.txt`:
```
happy, /emoji/custom/happy.png, Tag1,Tag2
sad, /emoji/custom/sad.png, Tag1
foo, /emoji/custom/foo.png
```
The files should be PNG (APNG is okay with `.png` for `image/png` Content-type) and under 50kb for compatibility with mastodon.
Default file extensions and locations for emojis are set in `config.exs`. To use different locations or file-extensions, add the `shortcode_globs` to your secrets file (`prod.secret.exs` or `dev.secret.exs`) and edit it. Note that not all fediverse-software will show emojis with other file extensions:
```elixir
config :pleroma, :emoji, shortcode_globs: ["/emoji/custom/**/*.png", "/emoji/custom/**/*.gif"]
```
## Emoji tags (groups)
Default tags are set in `config.exs`. To set your own tags, copy the structure to your secrets file (`prod.secret.exs` or `dev.secret.exs`) and edit it.
```elixir
config :pleroma, :emoji,
shortcode_globs: ["/emoji/custom/**/*.png"],
groups: [
Finmoji: "/finmoji/128px/*-128.png",
Custom: ["/emoji/*.png", "/emoji/custom/*.png"]
]
```
Order of the `groups` matters, so to override default tags just put your group on top of the list. E.g:
```elixir
config :pleroma, :emoji,
shortcode_globs: ["/emoji/custom/**/*.png"],
groups: [
"Finmoji special": "/finmoji/128px/a_trusted_friend-128.png", # special file
"Cirno": "/emoji/custom/cirno*.png", # png files in /emoji/custom/ which start with `cirno`
"Special group": "/emoji/custom/special_folder/*.png", # png files in /emoji/custom/special_folder/
"Another group": "/emoji/custom/special_folder/*/.png", # png files in /emoji/custom/special_folder/ subfolders
Finmoji: "/finmoji/128px/*-128.png",
Custom: ["/emoji/*.png", "/emoji/custom/*.png"]
]
```
Priority of tags assigns in emoji.txt and custom.txt:
`tag in file > special group setting in config.exs > default setting in config.exs`
Priority for globs:
`special group setting in config.exs > default setting in config.exs`
# Hardening your instance
Here are some suggestions which improve the security of parts of your Pleroma instance.
## Configuration file
These changes should go into `prod.secret.exs` or `dev.secret.exs`, depending on your `MIX_ENV` value.
### `http`
> Recommended value: `[ip: {127, 0, 0, 1}]`
This sets the Pleroma application server to only listen to the localhost interface. This way, you can only reach your server over the Internet by going through the reverse proxy. By default, Pleroma listens on all interfaces.
### `secure_cookie_flag`
> Recommended value: `true`
This sets the `secure` flag on Pleroma’s session cookie. This makes sure, that the cookie is only accepted over encrypted HTTPs connections. This implicitly renames the cookie from `pleroma_key` to `__Host-pleroma-key` which enforces some restrictions. (see [cookie prefixes](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Set-Cookie#Cookie_prefixes))
### `:http_security`
> Recommended value: `true`
This will send additional HTTP security headers to the clients, including:
* `X-XSS-Protection: "1; mode=block"`
* `X-Permitted-Cross-Domain-Policies: "none"`
* `X-Frame-Options: "DENY"`
* `X-Content-Type-Options: "nosniff"`
* `X-Download-Options: "noopen"`
A content security policy (CSP) will also be set:
```csp
content-security-policy:
default-src 'none';
base-uri 'self';
frame-ancestors 'none';
img-src 'self' data: blob: https:;
media-src 'self' https:;
style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline';
font-src 'self';
script-src 'self';
connect-src 'self' wss://example.tld;
manifest-src 'self';
upgrade-insecure-requests;
```
#### `sts`
> Recommended value: `true`
An additional “Strict transport security” header will be sent with the configured `sts_max_age` parameter. This tells the browser, that the domain should only be accessed over a secure HTTPs connection.
#### `ct_max_age`
An additional “Expect-CT” header will be sent with the configured `ct_max_age` parameter. This enforces the use of TLS certificates that are published in the certificate transparency log. (see [Expect-CT](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Expect-CT))
#### `referrer_policy`
> Recommended value: `same-origin`
If you click on a link, your browser’s request to the other site will include from where it is coming from. The “Referrer policy” header tells the browser how and if it should send this information. (see [Referrer policy](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Referrer-Policy))
### Uploaded media and media proxy
It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to serve both the locally-uploaded media and the media proxy from another domain than the domain that Pleroma runs on, if applicable.
```elixir
config :pleroma, :media_proxy,
base_url: "https://some.other.domain"
config :pleroma, Pleroma.Upload,
base_url: "https://some.other.domain/media"
```
See `installation/pleroma-mediaproxy.nginx` for examples on how to configure your media proxy.
## systemd
A systemd unit example is provided at `installation/pleroma.service`.
### PrivateTmp
> Recommended value: `true`
Use private `/tmp` and `/var/tmp` folders inside a new file system namespace, which are discarded after the process stops.
### ProtectHome
> Recommended value: `true`
The `/home`, `/root`, and `/run/user` folders can not be accessed by this service anymore. If your Pleroma user has its home folder in one of the restricted places, or use one of these folders as its working directory, you have to set this to `false`.
### ProtectSystem
> Recommended value: `full`
Mount `/usr`, `/boot`, and `/etc` as read-only for processes invoked by this service.
### PrivateDevices
> Recommended value: `true`
Sets up a new `/dev` mount for the process and only adds API pseudo devices like `/dev/null`, `/dev/zero` or `/dev/random` but not physical devices. This may not work on devices like the Raspberry Pi, where you need to set this to `false`.
### NoNewPrivileges
> Recommended value: `true`
Ensures that the service process and all its children can never gain new privileges through `execve()`.
### CapabilityBoundingSet
> Recommended value: `~CAP_SYS_ADMIN`
Drops the sysadmin capability from the daemon.
# How to use a different domain name for Pleroma and the users it serves
Pleroma users are primarily identified by a `user@example.org` handle, and you might want this identifier to be the same as your email or jabber account, for instance.
However, in this case, you are almost certainly serving some web content on `https://example.org` already, and you might want to use another domain (say `pleroma.example.org`) for Pleroma itself.
Pleroma supports that, but it might be tricky to set up, and any error might prevent you from federating with other instances.
*If you are already running Pleroma on `example.org`, it is no longer possible to move it to `pleroma.example.org`.*
## Account identifiers
It is important to understand that for federation purposes, a user in Pleroma has two unique identifiers associated:
- A webfinger `acct:` URI, used for discovery and as a verifiable global name for the user across Pleroma instances. In our example, our account's acct: URI is `acct:user@example.org`
- An author/actor URI, used in every other aspect of federation. This is the way in which users are identified in ActivityPub, the underlying protocol used for federation with other Pleroma instances.
In our case, it is `https://pleroma.example.org/users/user`.
Both account identifiers are unique and required for Pleroma. An important risk if you set up your Pleroma instance incorrectly is to create two users (with different acct: URIs) with conflicting author/actor URIs.
## WebFinger
As said earlier, each Pleroma user has an `acct`: URI, which is used for discovery and authentication. When you add @user@example.org, a webfinger query is performed. This is done in two steps:
1. Querying `https://example.org/.well-known/host-meta` (where the domain of the URL matches the domain part of the `acct`: URI) to get information on how to perform the query.
This file will indeed contain a URL template of the form `https://example.org/.well-known/webfinger?resource={uri}` that will be used in the second step.
2. Fill the returned template with the `acct`: URI to be queried and perform the query: `https://example.org/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:user@example.org`
## Configuring your Pleroma instance
**_DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CONFIGURE YOUR INSTANCE THIS WAY IF YOU DID NOT UNDERSTAND THE ABOVE_**
### Configuring Pleroma
Pleroma has a two configuration settings to enable using different domains for your users and Pleroma itself. `host` in `Pleroma.Web.Endpoint` and `domain` in `Pleroma.Web.WebFinger`. When the latter is not set, it defaults to the value of `host`.
*Be extra careful when configuring your Pleroma instance, as changing `host` may cause remote instances to register different accounts with the same author/actor URI, which will result in federation issues!*
```elixir
config :pleroma, Pleroma.Web.Endpoint,
url: [host: "pleroma.example.org"]
config :pleroma, Pleroma.Web.WebFinger, domain: "example.org"
```
- `domain` - is the domain for which your Pleroma instance has authority, it's the domain used in `acct:` URI. In our example, `domain` would be set to `example.org`. This is used in WebFinger account ids, which are the canonical account identifier in some other fediverse software like Mastodon. **If you change `domain`, the accounts on your server will be shown as different accounts in those software**.
- `host` - is the domain used for any URL generated for your instance, including the author/actor URL's. In our case, that would be `pleroma.example.org`. This is used in AP ids, which are the canonical account identifier in Pleroma and some other fediverse software. **You should not change this after you have set up the instance**.
### Configuring WebFinger domain
Now, you have Pleroma running at `https://pleroma.example.org` as well as a website at `https://example.org`. If you recall how webfinger queries work, the first step is to query `https://example.org/.well-known/host-meta`, which will contain an URL template.
Therefore, the easiest way to configure `example.org` is to redirect `/.well-known/host-meta` to `pleroma.example.org`.
With nginx, it would be as simple as adding:
```nginx
location = /.well-known/host-meta {
return 301 https://pleroma.example.org$request_uri;
}
```
in example.org's server block.
# How to activate Pleroma in-database configuration
## Explanation
The configuration of Pleroma has traditionally been managed with a config file, e.g. `config/prod.secret.exs`. This method requires a restart of the application for any configuration changes to take effect. We have made it possible to control most settings in the AdminFE interface after running a migration script.
## Migration to database config
1. Run the mix task to migrate to the database.
**Source:**
```
$ mix pleroma.config migrate_to_db
```
or
**OTP:**
*Note: OTP users need Pleroma to be running for `pleroma_ctl` commands to work*
```
$ ./bin/pleroma_ctl config migrate_to_db
```
```
Migrating settings from file: /home/pleroma/config/dev.secret.exs
Settings for key instance migrated.
Settings for group :pleroma migrated.
```
2. It is recommended to backup your config file now.
```
cp config/dev.secret.exs config/dev.secret.exs.orig
```
3. Edit your Pleroma config to enable database configuration:
```
config :pleroma, configurable_from_database: true
```
4. ⚠️ **THIS IS NOT REQUIRED** ⚠️
Now you can edit your config file and strip it down to the only settings which are not possible to control in the database. e.g., the Postgres (Repo) and webserver (Endpoint) settings cannot be controlled in the database because the application needs the settings to start up and access the database.
Any settings in the database will override those in the config file, but you may find it less confusing if the setting is only declared in one place.
A non-exhaustive list of settings that are only possible in the config file include the following:
* config :pleroma, Pleroma.Web.Endpoint
* config :pleroma, Pleroma.Repo
* config :pleroma, configurable\_from\_database
* config :pleroma, :database, rum_enabled
* config :pleroma, :connections_pool
Here is an example of a server config stripped down after migration:
```
import Config
config :pleroma, Pleroma.Web.Endpoint,
url: [host: "cool.pleroma.site", scheme: "https", port: 443]
config :pleroma, Pleroma.Repo,
adapter: Ecto.Adapters.Postgres,
username: "pleroma",
password: "MySecretPassword",
database: "pleroma_prod",
hostname: "localhost"
config :pleroma, configurable_from_database: true
```
5. Restart your instance and you can now access the Settings tab in AdminFE.
## Reverting back from database config
1. Run the mix task to migrate back from the database. You'll receive some debugging output and a few messages informing you of what happened.
**Source:**
```
$ mix pleroma.config migrate_from_db
```
or
**OTP:**
```
$ ./bin/pleroma_ctl config migrate_from_db
```
```
10:26:30.593 [debug] QUERY OK source="config" db=9.8ms decode=1.2ms queue=26.0ms idle=0.0ms
SELECT c0."id", c0."key", c0."group", c0."value", c0."inserted_at", c0."updated_at" FROM "config" AS c0 []
10:26:30.659 [debug] QUERY OK source="config" db=1.1ms idle=80.7ms
SELECT c0."id", c0."key", c0."group", c0."value", c0."inserted_at", c0."updated_at" FROM "config" AS c0 []
Database configuration settings have been saved to config/dev.exported_from_db.secret.exs
```
2. Remove `config :pleroma, configurable_from_database: true` from your config. The in-database configuration still exists, but it will not be used. Future migrations will erase the database config before importing your config file again.
3. Restart your instance.
## Debugging
### Clearing database config
You can clear the database config with the following command:
**Source:**
```
$ mix pleroma.config reset
```
or
**OTP:**
```
$ ./bin/pleroma_ctl config reset
```
Additionally, every time you migrate the configuration to the database the config table is automatically truncated to ensure a clean migration.
### Manually removing a setting
If you encounter a situation where the server cannot run properly because of an invalid setting in the database and this is preventing you from accessing AdminFE, you can manually remove the offending setting if you know which one it is.
e.g., here is an example showing a the removal of the `config :pleroma, :instance` settings:
**Source:**
```
$ mix pleroma.config delete pleroma instance
Are you sure you want to continue? [n] y
config :pleroma, :instance deleted from the ConfigDB.
```
or
**OTP:**
```
$ ./bin/pleroma_ctl config delete pleroma instance
Are you sure you want to continue? [n] y
config :pleroma, :instance deleted from the ConfigDB.
```
Now the `config :pleroma, :instance` settings have been removed from the database.
# Configuring Ejabberd (XMPP Server) to use Pleroma for authentication
If you want to give your Pleroma users an XMPP (chat) account, you can configure [Ejabberd](https://github.com/processone/ejabberd) to use your Pleroma server for user authentication, automatically giving every local user an XMPP account.
In general, you just have to follow the configuration described at [https://docs.ejabberd.im/admin/configuration/authentication/#external-script](https://docs.ejabberd.im/admin/configuration/authentication/#external-script). Please read this section carefully.
Copy the script below to suitable path on your system and set owner and permissions. Also do not forget adjusting `PLEROMA_HOST` and `PLEROMA_PORT`, if necessary.
```bash
cp pleroma_ejabberd_auth.py /etc/ejabberd/pleroma_ejabberd_auth.py
chown ejabberd /etc/ejabberd/pleroma_ejabberd_auth.py
chmod 700 /etc/ejabberd/pleroma_ejabberd_auth.py
```
Set external auth params in ejabberd.yaml file:
```bash
auth_method: [external]
extauth_program: "python3 /etc/ejabberd/pleroma_ejabberd_auth.py"
extauth_instances: 3
auth_use_cache: false
```
Restart / reload your ejabberd service.
After restarting your Ejabberd server, your users should now be able to connect with their Pleroma credentials.
```python

# How to activate mediaproxy
## Explanation
Without the `mediaproxy` function, Pleroma doesn't store any remote content like pictures, video etc. locally. So every time you open Pleroma, the content is loaded from the source server, from where the post is coming. This can result in slowly loading content or/and increased bandwidth usage on the source server.
With the `mediaproxy` function you can use nginx to cache this content, so users can access it faster, because it's loaded from your server.
## Activate it
* Edit your nginx config and add the following location:
```
location /proxy {
proxy_cache pleroma_media_cache;
proxy_cache_lock on;
proxy_pass http://localhost:4000;
}
```
Also add the following on top of the configuration, outside of the `server` block:
```
proxy_cache_path /tmp/pleroma-media-cache levels=1:2 keys_zone=pleroma_media_cache:10m max_size=10g inactive=720m use_temp_path=off;
```
If you came here from one of the installation guides, take a look at the example configuration `/installation/pleroma.nginx`, where this part is already included.
* Append the following to your `prod.secret.exs` or `dev.secret.exs` (depends on which mode your instance is running):
```
config :pleroma, :media_proxy,
enabled: true,
proxy_opts: [
redirect_on_failure: true
]
#base_url: "https://cache.pleroma.social"
```
If you want to use a subdomain to serve the files, uncomment `base_url`, change the url and add a comma after `true` in the previous line.

# Configuring MongooseIM (XMPP Server) to use Pleroma for authentication
If you want to give your Pleroma users an XMPP (chat) account, you can configure [MongooseIM](https://github.com/esl/MongooseIM) to use your Pleroma server for user authentication, automatically giving every local user an XMPP account.
In general, you just have to follow the configuration described at [https://mongooseim.readthedocs.io/en/latest/authentication-backends/HTTP-authentication-module/](https://mongooseim.readthedocs.io/en/latest/authentication-backends/HTTP-authentication-module/) and do these changes to your mongooseim.cfg.
1. Set the auth_method to `{auth_method, http}`.
2. Add the http auth pool like this: `{http, global, auth, [{workers, 50}], [{server, "https://yourpleromainstance.com"}]}`
Restart your MongooseIM server, your users should now be able to connect with their Pleroma credentials.
# How to configure upstream proxy for federation
If you want to proxify all http requests (e.g. for TOR) that pleroma makes to an upstream proxy server, edit you config file (`dev.secret.exs` or `prod.secret.exs`) and add the following:
```
config :pleroma, :http,
proxy_url: "127.0.0.1:8123"
```
The other way to do it, for example, with Tor you would most likely add something like this:
```
config :pleroma, :http, proxy_url: {:socks5, :localhost, 9050}
```
# How to enable text search for Chinese, Japanese and Korean
Pleroma's full text search feature is powered by PostgreSQL's native [text search](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/textsearch.html), it works well out of box for most of languages, but needs extra configurations for some asian languages like Chinese, Japanese and Korean (CJK).
## Setup and test the new search config
In most cases, you would need an extension installed to support parsing CJK text. Here are a few extensions you may choose from, or you are more than welcome to share additional ones you found working for you with the rest of Pleroma community.
* [a generic n-gram parser](https://github.com/huangjimmy/pg_cjk_parser) supports Simplifed/Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean
* [a Korean parser](https://github.com/i0seph/textsearch_ko) based on mecab
* [a Japanese parser](https://www.amris.co.jp/tsja/index.html) based on mecab
* [zhparser](https://github.com/amutu/zhparser/) is a PostgreSQL extension base on the Simple Chinese Word Segmentation(SCWS)
* [another Chinese parser](https://github.com/jaiminpan/pg_jieba) based on Jieba Chinese Word Segmentation
Once you have the new search config , make sure you test it with the `pleroma` user in PostgreSQL (change `YOUR.CONFIG` to your real configuration name)
```
SELECT ts_debug('YOUR.CONFIG', '安装和配置Nginx, ElixirとErlangをインストールします');
```
Check output of the query, and see if it matches your expectation.
## Update text search config and index in database
=== "OTP"
```sh
./bin/pleroma_ctl database set_text_search_config YOUR.CONFIG
```
=== "From Source"
```sh
mix pleroma.database set_text_search_config YOUR.CONFIG
```
Note: index update may take a while, and it can be done while the instance is up and running, so you may restart db connection as soon as you see `Recreate index` in task output.
## Restart database connection
Since some changes above will only apply with a new database connection, you will have to restart either Pleroma or PostgreSQL process, or use `pg_terminate_backend` SQL command without restarting either.
Now the search results of statuses should be much more friendly for your language of choice, the results for searching users and tags were not changed, as the default parsing/matching should work for most cases.
# How to set rich media cache ttl based on image ttl
## Explanation
Richmedia are cached without the ttl but the rich media may have image which can expire, like aws signed url.
In such cases the old image url (expired) is returned from the media cache.
So to avoid such situation we can define a module that will set ttl based on image.
The module must adopt behaviour `Pleroma.Web.RichMedia.Parser.TTL`
### Example
```exs
defmodule MyModule do
@behaviour Pleroma.Web.RichMedia.Parser.TTL
@impl Pleroma.Web.RichMedia.Parser.TTL
def ttl(data, url) do
image_url = Map.get(data, :image)
# do some parsing in the url and get the ttl of the image
# return ttl is unix time
parse_ttl_from_url(image_url)
end
end
```
And update the config
```exs
config :pleroma, :rich_media,
ttl_setters: [Pleroma.Web.RichMedia.Parser.TTL.AwsSignedUrl, MyModule]
```
> For reference there is a parser for AWS signed URL `Pleroma.Web.RichMedia.Parser.TTL.AwsSignedUrl`, it's enabled by default.
# Theming your instance
To add a custom theme to your instance, you'll first need to get a custom theme, upload it to the server, make it available to the instance and eventually you can set it as default.
## Getting a custom theme
### Create your own theme
* You can create your own theme using the Pleroma FE by going to settings (gear on the top right) and choose the Theme tab. Here you have the options to create a personal theme.
* To download your theme, you can do Save preset
* If you want to upload a theme to customise it further, you can upload it using Load preset
This will only save the theme for you personally. To make it available to the whole instance, you'll need to upload it to the server.
### Get an existing theme
* You can download a theme from another instance by going to that instance, go to settings and make sure you have the theme selected that you want. Then you can do Save preset to download it.
* You can also find and download custom themes at <https://plthemes.vulpes.one/>
## Adding the custom theme to the instance
### Upload the theme to the server
Themes can be found in the [static directory](static_dir.md). Create `STATIC-DIR/static/themes/` if needed and copy your theme there. Next you need to add an entry for your theme to `STATIC-DIR/static/styles.json`. If you use a from source installation, you'll first need to copy the file from `priv/static/static/styles.json`.
Example of `styles.json` where we add our own `my-awesome-theme.json`
```json
{
"pleroma-dark": [ "Pleroma Dark", "#121a24", "#182230", "#b9b9ba", "#d8a070", "#d31014", "#0fa00f", "#0095ff", "#ffa500" ],
"pleroma-light": [ "Pleroma Light", "#f2f4f6", "#dbe0e8", "#304055", "#f86f0f", "#d31014", "#0fa00f", "#0095ff", "#ffa500" ],
"classic-dark": [ "Classic Dark", "#161c20", "#282e32", "#b9b9b9", "#baaa9c", "#d31014", "#0fa00f", "#0095ff", "#ffa500" ],
"bird": [ "Bird", "#f8fafd", "#e6ecf0", "#14171a", "#0084b8", "#e0245e", "#17bf63", "#1b95e0", "#fab81e"],
"ir-black": [ "Ir Black", "#000000", "#242422", "#b5b3aa", "#ff6c60", "#FF6C60", "#A8FF60", "#96CBFE", "#FFFFB6" ],
"monokai": [ "Monokai", "#272822", "#383830", "#f8f8f2", "#f92672", "#F92672", "#a6e22e", "#66d9ef", "#f4bf75" ],
"redmond-xx": "/static/themes/redmond-xx.json",
"redmond-xx-se": "/static/themes/redmond-xx-se.json",
"redmond-xxi": "/static/themes/redmond-xxi.json",
"breezy-dark": "/static/themes/breezy-dark.json",
"breezy-light": "/static/themes/breezy-light.json",
"mammal": "/static/themes/mammal.json",
"my-awesome-theme": "/static/themes/my-awesome-theme.json"
}
```
Now you'll already be able to select the theme in Pleroma FE from the drop-down. You don't need to restart Pleroma because we only changed static served files. You may need to refresh the page in your browser. You'll notice however that the theme doesn't have a name, it's just an empty entry in the drop-down.
### Give the theme a name
When you open one of the themes that ship with Pleroma, you'll notice that the json has a `"name"` key. Add a key-value pair to your theme where the key name is `"name"` and the value the name you want to give your theme. After this you can refresh te page in your browser and the name should be visible in the drop-down.
Example of `my-awesome-theme.json` where we add the name "My Awesome Theme"
```json
{
"_pleroma_theme_version": 2,
"name": "My Awesome Theme",
"theme": {}
}
```
### Set as default theme
Now we can set the new theme as default in the [Pleroma FE configuration](../../../frontend/CONFIGURATION).
Example of adding the new theme in the back-end config files
```elixir
config :pleroma, :frontend_configurations,
pleroma_fe: %{
theme: "my-awesome-theme"
}
```
If you added it in the back-end configuration file, you'll need to restart your instance for the changes to take effect. If you don't see the changes, it's probably because the browser has cached the previous theme. In that case you'll want to clear browser caches. Alternatively you can use a private/incognito window just to see the changes.
