# 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Note: `strip_exif` has been replaced by `Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Mogrify`.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

For example, when using CDN to S3 virtual host format, set "".
At this time, write CNAME to CDN in public_endpoint.
## Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Mogrify
* `args`: List of actions for the `mogrify` command like `"strip"` or `["strip", "auto-orient", {"implode", "1"}]`.
## Pleroma.Upload.Filter.Dedupe

## 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.

Web Push Notifications configuration. You can use the mix task `mix web_push.gen.keypair` to generate it.

* `endpoint`: the kocaptcha endpoint to use
## :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. Example:
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`

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>`).
## :email_notifications

## 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:
* `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`.
* `clean_expired_tokens_interval` - Interval to run the job to clean expired tokens. Defaults to `86_400_000` (24 hours).
## :emoji
* `shortcode_globs`: Location of custom emoji files. `*` can be used as a wildcard. Example `["/emoji/custom/**/*.png"]`
* `pack_extensions`: A list of file extensions for emojis, when no emoji.txt for a pack is present. Example `[".png", ".gif"]`
* `groups`: Emojis are ordered in groups (tags). This is an array of key-value pairs where the key is the groupname and the value the location or array of locations. `*` can be used as a wildcard. Example `[Custom: ["/emoji/*.png", "/emoji/custom/*.png"]]`
* `default_manifest`: Location of the JSON-manifest. This manifest contains information about the emoji-packs you can download. Currently only one manifest can be added (no arrays).
## Database options
### RUM indexing for full text search
* `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:
This is an advanced feature and disabled 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.
See [`Pleroma.Plugs.RateLimiter`](Pleroma.Plugs.RateLimiter.html) documentation for examples.
Supported rate limiters:
* `:search` for the search requests (account & status search etc.)
* `:app_account_creation` for registering user accounts from the same IP address
* `:relations_actions` for actions on relations with all users (follow, unfollow)
* `:relation_id_action` for actions on relation with a specific user (follow, unfollow)
* `:statuses_actions` for create / delete / fav / unfav / reblog / unreblog actions on any statuses
* `:status_id_action` for fav / unfav or reblog / unreblog actions on the same status by the same user
## :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).
Blocking a user prevents them from interacting with repositories, such as opening or commenting on pull requests or issues. Learn more about blocking a user.
