REST auth support via matrix-synapse-rest-auth
The playbook can now install and configure matrix-synapse-rest-auth for you.
Additional details are available in Setting up the REST authentication password provider module.
Compression improvements
Shifted Matrix Synapse compression from happening in the Matrix Synapse, to happening in the nginx proxy that's in front of it.
Additionally, riot-web
also gets compressed now (in the nginx proxy),
which drops the initial page load's size from 5.31MB to 1.86MB.
Disabling some unnecessary Synapse services
The following services are not necessary, so they have been disabled:
- on the federation port (8448): the
client
service - on the http port (8008, exposed over 443): the old Angular
webclient
and thefederation
service
Federation runs only on the federation port (8448) now. The Client APIs run only on the http port (8008) now.

Email-sending support
The playbook now configures an email-sending service (postfix) by default. Additional details are available in Adjusting email-sending settings.
With this, Matrix Synapse is able to send email notifications for missed messages, etc.

(BC Break) Renaming playbook variables
The following playbook variables were renamed:
- from
matrix_max_upload_size_mb
tomatrix_synapse_max_upload_size_mb
- from
matrix_max_log_file_size_mb
tomatrix_synapse_max_log_file_size_mb
- from
matrix_max_log_files_count
tomatrix_synapse_max_log_files_count
- from
docker_matrix_image
tomatrix_docker_image_synapse
- from
docker_nginx_image
tomatrix_docker_image_nginx
- from
docker_riot_image
tomatrix_docker_image_riot
- from
docker_goofys_image
tomatrix_docker_image_goofys
- from
docker_coturn_image
tomatrix_docker_image_coturn
If you're overriding any of them in your vars.yml
file, you'd need to change to the new names.
Renaming Ansible playbook tag
The command for executing the whole playbook has changed.
The setup-main
tag got renamed to setup-all
.
Docker container linking
Changed the way the Docker containers are linked together. The ones that need to communicate with others operate in a matrix
network now and not in the default bridge network.
