ma1sd requires the openid endpoints for certain functionality.
Example: 90b2b5301c/src/main/java/io/kamax/mxisd/auth/AccountManager.java (L67-L99)
If federation is disabled, we still need to expose these openid APIs on the
federation port.
Previously, we were doing similar magic for Dimension.
As per its documentation, when running unfederated, one is to enable
the openid listener as well. As per their recommendation, people
are advised to do enable it on the Client-Server API port
and use the `federationUrl` variable to override where the federation
port is (making federation requests go to the Client-Server API).
Because ma1sd always uses the federation port (unless you do some
DNS overwriting magic using its configuration -- which we'd rather not
do), it's better if we just default to putting the `openid` listener
where it belongs - on the federation port.
With this commit, we retain the "automatically enable openid APIs" thing
we've been doing for Dimension, but move it to the federation port instead.
We also now do the same thing when ma1sd is enabled.
Fixes https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/716
This patch makes us use more fully-qualified container image names
(either prefixed with docker.io/ or with localhost/).
The latter happens when self-building is enabled.
We've recently had issues where if an image was removed manually
and the service was restarted (making `docker run` fetch it from Docker Hub, etc.),
we'd end up with a pulled image, even though we're aiming for a self-built one.
Re-running the playbook would then not do a rebuild, because:
- the image with that name already exists (even though it's something
else)
- we sometimes had conditional logic where we'd build only if the git
repo changed
By explicitly changing the name of the images (prefixing with localhost/),
we avoid such confusion and the possibility that we'd automatically pul something
which is not what we expect.
Also, I've removed that condition where building would happen on git
changes only. We now always build (unless an image with that name
already exists). We just force-build when the git repo changes.
There's no change in the source code. Just a release bump for packaing
reasons. It doesn't matter much for us here, but let's be on the latest
tag anyway.
This keeps the roles cleaner and more independent of matrix-base,
which may be important for people building their own playbook
out of the individual roles and not using the matrix-base role.
Synapse v1.9.0 changed some things which made the REST Auth Password
Provider break.
The ma1uta/matrix-synapse-rest-password-provider implements some
workarounds for now and will likely deliver a proper fix in the future.
Not much has changed between the 2 projects, so this should be a
painless transition.
Can you double check that the way I have this set only exposes it locally? It is important that the manhole is not available to the outside world since it is quite powerful and the password is hard coded.
Prompted by: https://matrix.org/blog/2019/11/09/avoiding-unwelcome-visitors-on-private-matrix-servers
This is a bit controversial, because.. the Synapse default remains open,
while the general advice (as per the blog post) is to make it more private.
I'm not sure exactly what kind of server people set up and whether they
want to make the room directory public. Our general goal is to favor
privacy and security when running personal (family & friends) and corporate
homeservers, both of which likely benefit from having a more secure default.
Don't mention systemd-journald adjustment anymore, because
we've changed log levels to WARNING and Synapse is not chatty by default
anymore.
The "excessive log messages may get dropped on CentOS" issue no longer
applies to most users and we shouldn't bother them with it.
This only gets triggered if:
- the Synapse role is used standalone and the default values are used
- the whole playbook is used, with `matrix_mxisd_enabled: false`
Also discussed previously in #213 (Github Pull Request).
shared-secret-auth and rest-auth logging is still at `INFO`
intentionally, as user login events seem more important to keep.
Those modules typically don't spam as much.
Somewhat related to #213 (Github Pull Request).
We've been moving in the opposite direction for quite a long time.
All services should just leave logging to systemd's journald.
Fixes a regression introduced during the upgrade to
Synapse v1.1.0 (in 2b3865ceea).
Since Synapse v1.1.0 upgraded to Python 3.7
(https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/5546),
we need to use a different modules directory when mounting
password provider modules.
We do use some `:latest` images by default for the following services:
- matrix-dimension
- Goofys (in the matrix-synapse role)
- matrix-bridge-appservice-irc
- matrix-bridge-appservice-discord
- matrix-bridge-mautrix-facebook
- matrix-bridge-mautrix-whatsapp
It's terribly unfortunate that those software projects don't release
anything other than `:latest`, but that's how it is for now.
Updating that software requires that users manually do `docker pull`
on the server. The playbook didn't force-repull images that it already
had.
With this patch, it starts doing so. Any image tagged `:latest` will be
force re-pulled by the playbook every time it's executed.
It should be noted that even though we ask the `docker_image` module to
force-pull, it only reports "changed" when it actually pulls something
new. This is nice, because it lets people know exactly when something
gets updated, as opposed to giving the indication that it's always
updating the images (even though it isn't).
This doesn't replace all usage of `-v`, but it's a start.
People sometimes troubleshoot by deleting files (especially bridge
config files). Restarting Synapse with a missing registration.yaml file
for a given bridge, causes the `-v
/something/registration.yaml:/something/registration.yaml:ro` option
to force-create `/something/registration.yaml` as a directory.
When a path that's provided to the `-v` option is missing, Docker
auto-creates that path as a directory.
This causes more breakage and confusion later on.
We'd rather fail, instead of magically creating directories.
Using `--mount`, instead of `-v` is the solution to this.
From Docker's documentation:
> When you use --mount with type=bind, the host-path must refer to an existing path on the host.
> The path will not be created for you and the service will fail with an error if the path does not exist.
The goal is to move each bridge into its own separate role.
This commit starts off the work on this with 2 bridges:
- mautrix-telegram
- mautrix-whatsapp
Each bridge's role (including these 2) is meant to:
- depend only on the matrix-base role
- integrate nicely with the matrix-synapse role (if available)
- integrate nicely with the matrix-nginx-proxy role (if available and if
required). mautrix-telegram bridge benefits from integrating with
it.
- not break if matrix-synapse or matrix-nginx-proxy are not used at all
This has been provoked by #174 (Github Issue).
- matrix_enable_room_list_search - Controls whether searching the public room list is enabled.
- matrix_alias_creation_rules - Controls who's allowed to create aliases on this server.
- matrix_room_list_publication_rules - Controls who can publish and which rooms can be published in the public room list.
By default, `--tags=self-check` no longer validates certificates
when `matrix_ssl_retrieval_method` is set to `self-signed`.
Besides this default, people can also enable/disable validation using the
individual role variables manually.
Fixes#124 (Github Issue)
This allows overriding the default value for `include_content`. Setting
this to false allows homeserver admins to ensure that message content
isn't sent in the clear through third party servers.
`matrix_synapse_no_tls` is now implicit, so we've gotten rid of it.
The `homeserver.yaml.j2` template has been synchronized with the
configuration generated by Synapse v0.99.1 (some new options
are present, etc.)
