We're talking about a webserver running on the same machine, which
imports the configuration files generated by the `matrix-nginx-proxy`
in the `/matrix/nginx-proxy/conf.d` directory.
Users who run an nginx webserver on some other machine will need to do
something different.
This give us the possibility to run multiple instances of
workers that that don't expose a port.
Right now, we don't support that, but in the future we could
run multiple `federation_sender` or `pusher` workers, without
them fighting over naming (previously, they'd all be named
something like `matrix-synapse-worker-pusher-0`, because
they'd all define `port` as `0`).
This leads to much easier management and potential safety
features (validation). In the future, we could try to avoid port
conflicts as well, but it didn't seem worth the effort to do it now.
Our port ranges seem large enough.
This can also pave the way for a "presets" feature
(similar to `matrix_nginx_proxy_ssl_presets`) which makes it even easier
for people to configure worker counts.
The quotes around "host" for both `--pid` and `--net` were
causing trouble for me:
> docker: --pid: invalid PID mode.
and:
> docker: Error response from daemon: network "host" not found.
I've also changed the `-v` call to `--mount` for consistency with the
rest of the playbook.
Also includes the dashboards for Synapse and for Node Exporter.
Again has only been tested on debian amd64 so far, but the grafana docker image is available for arm64 and arm32. Nice.
Basic system stats, to show stuff the synapse metrics
can't show such as resource usage by bridges, etc
Seems to work fine as well.
This too has only been tested on debian amd64 so far
I felt that adding another variable was probably going to be the easiest way to do this. I may end up adding another variable to enable this feature, for consistency with some of the other things.
This passes any arguments given to 'matrix-postgres-cli' to the 'psql' command.
Examples:
$ # start an interactive shell connected to a given db
$ sudo matrix-postgres-cli -d synapse
$ # run a query, non-interactively
$ sudo matrix-postgres-cli -d synapse -c 'SELECT group_id FROM groups;'
If they do, our next playbook runs would simply revert it
and report "changed" for that task.
There's no benefit to letting the bridge spew a new config file.
This does not apply to the mautrix whatsapp bridge, because that one
is written in Go (not Python) and takes different flags. There's no
equivalent flag there.
Fixes a regression introduced in f6097fbba1, which was cauing Synapse
to die with this error message:
> ValueError: sender_localpart needs characters which are not URL encoded.
These are just defensive cleanup tasks that we run.
In the good case, there's nothing to kill or remove, so they trigger an
error like this:
> Error response from daemon: Cannot kill container: something: No such container: something
and:
> Error: No such container: something
People often ask us if this is a problem, so instead of always having to
answer with "no, this is to be expected", we'd rather eliminate it now
and make logs cleaner.
In the event that:
- a container is really stuck and needs cleanup using kill/rm
- and cleanup fails, and we fail to report it because of error
suppression (`2>/dev/null`)
.. we'd still get an error when launching ("container name already in use .."),
so it shouldn't be too hard to investigate.
Not specifying bind addresses for the worker resulted in this warning:
> synapse.app - 47 - WARNING - None - Failed to listen on 0.0.0.0, continuing because listening on [::]
Additionally, metrics listening only on 127.0.0.1 seems like a no-op.
Only having it accessible from within the container is likely not what
we intend. Changed that to all interfaces as well.
Whether it actually gets exposed or not depends on the systemd service
and `matrix_synapse_workers_container_host_bind_address`.
This switches the `docker exec` method of spawning
Synapse workers inside the `matrix-synapse` container with
dedicated containers for each worker.
We also have dedicated systemd services for each worker,
so this are now:
- more consistent with everything else (we don't use systemd
instantiated services anywhere)
- we don't need the "parse systemd instance name into worker name +
port" part
- we don't need to keep track of PIDs manually
- we don't need jq (less depenendencies)
- workers dying would be restarted by systemd correctly, like any other
service
- `docker ps` shows each worker separately and we can observe resource
usage
