# This file is maintained as an up-to-date snapshot of the default # homeserver.yaml configuration generated by Synapse. # # It is intended to act as a reference for the default configuration, # helping admins keep track of new options and other changes, and compare # their configs with the current default. As such, many of the actual # config values shown are placeholders. # # It is *not* intended to be copied and used as the basis for a real # homeserver.yaml. Instead, if you are starting from scratch, please generate # a fresh config using Synapse by following the instructions in # https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/setup/installation.html. # Configuration options that take a time period can be set using a number # followed by a letter. Letters have the following meanings: # s = second # m = minute # h = hour # d = day # w = week # y = year # For example, setting redaction_retention_period: 5m would remove redacted # messages from the database after 5 minutes, rather than 5 months. ################################################################################ # Configuration file for Synapse. # # This is a YAML file: see [1] for a quick introduction. Note in particular # that *indentation is important*: all the elements of a list or dictionary # should have the same indentation. # # [1] https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/YAMLSyntax.html ## Modules ## # Server admins can expand Synapse's functionality with external modules. # # See https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/modules/index.html for more # documentation on how to configure or create custom modules for Synapse. # modules: #- module: my_super_module.MySuperClass # config: # do_thing: true #- module: my_other_super_module.SomeClass # config: {} ## Server ## # The public-facing domain of the server # # The server_name name will appear at the end of usernames and room addresses # created on this server. For example if the server_name was example.com, # usernames on this server would be in the format @user:example.com # # In most cases you should avoid using a matrix specific subdomain such as # matrix.example.com or synapse.example.com as the server_name for the same # reasons you wouldn't use user@email.example.com as your email address. # See https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/delegate.html # for information on how to host Synapse on a subdomain while preserving # a clean server_name. # # The server_name cannot be changed later so it is important to # configure this correctly before you start Synapse. It should be all # lowercase and may contain an explicit port. # Examples: matrix.org, localhost:8080 # server_name: "SERVERNAME" # When running as a daemon, the file to store the pid in # pid_file: DATADIR/homeserver.pid # The absolute URL to the web client which / will redirect to. # #web_client_location: https://riot.example.com/ # The public-facing base URL that clients use to access this Homeserver (not # including _matrix/...). This is the same URL a user might enter into the # 'Custom Homeserver URL' field on their client. If you use Synapse with a # reverse proxy, this should be the URL to reach Synapse via the proxy. # Otherwise, it should be the URL to reach Synapse's client HTTP listener (see # 'listeners' below). # # Defaults to 'https:///'. # #public_baseurl: https://example.com/ # Uncomment the following to tell other servers to send federation traffic on # port 443. # # By default, other servers will try to reach our server on port 8448, which can # be inconvenient in some environments. # # Provided 'https:///' on port 443 is routed to Synapse, this # option configures Synapse to serve a file at # 'https:///.well-known/matrix/server'. This will tell other # servers to send traffic to port 443 instead. # # See https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/delegate.html for more # information. # # Defaults to 'false'. # #serve_server_wellknown: true # Set the soft limit on the number of file descriptors synapse can use # Zero is used to indicate synapse should set the soft limit to the # hard limit. # #soft_file_limit: 0 # Presence tracking allows users to see the state (e.g online/offline) # of other local and remote users. # presence: # Uncomment to disable presence tracking on this homeserver. This option # replaces the previous top-level 'use_presence' option. # #enabled: false # Whether to require authentication to retrieve profile data (avatars, # display names) of other users through the client API.

Only checked on Client-Server # requests. Profile requests from other servers should be checked by the # requesting server. Defaults to 'false'. # #limit_profile_requests_to_users_who_share_rooms: true # Uncomment to prevent a user's profile data from being retrieved and # displayed in a room until they have joined it. By default, a user's # profile data is included in an invite event, regardless of the values # of the above two settings, and whether or not the users share a server. # Defaults to 'true'. # #include_profile_data_on_invite: false # If set to 'true', removes the need for authentication to access the server's # public rooms directory through the client API, meaning that anyone can # query the room directory. Defaults to 'false'. # #allow_public_rooms_without_auth: true # If set to 'true', allows any other homeserver to fetch the server's public # rooms directory via federation.

Synapse will also # filter events received over federation so that events that should have been # purged are ignored and not stored again. # retention: # The message retention policies feature is disabled by default. Uncomment the # following line to enable it. # #enabled: true # Default retention policy. If set, Synapse will apply it to rooms that lack the # 'm.room.retention' state event. Currently, the value of 'min_lifetime' doesn't # matter much because Synapse doesn't take it into account yet. # #default_policy: # min_lifetime: 1d # max_lifetime: 1y # Retention policy limits. If set, and the state of a room contains a # 'm.room.retention' event in its state which contains a 'min_lifetime' or a # 'max_lifetime' that's out of these bounds, Synapse will cap the room's policy # to these limits when running purge jobs. # #allowed_lifetime_min: 1d #allowed_lifetime_max: 1y # Server admins can define the settings of the background jobs purging the # events which lifetime has expired under the 'purge_jobs' section. # # If no configuration is provided, a single job will be set up to delete expired # events in every room daily. # # Each job's configuration defines which range of message lifetimes the job # takes care of. For example, if 'shortest_max_lifetime' is '2d' and # 'longest_max_lifetime' is '3d', the job will handle purging expired events in # rooms whose state defines a 'max_lifetime' that's both higher than 2 days, and # lower than or equal to 3 days. Both the minimum and the maximum value of a # range are optional, e.g. a job with no 'shortest_max_lifetime' and a # 'longest_max_lifetime' of '3d' will handle every room with a retention policy # which 'max_lifetime' is lower than or equal to three days. # # The rationale for this per-job configuration is that some rooms might have a # retention policy with a low 'max_lifetime', where history needs to be purged # of outdated messages on a more frequent basis than for the rest of the rooms # (e.g. every 12h), but not want that purge to be performed by a job that's # iterating over every room it knows, which could be heavy on the server. # # If any purge job is configured, it is strongly recommended to have at least # a single job with neither 'shortest_max_lifetime' nor 'longest_max_lifetime' # set, or one job without 'shortest_max_lifetime' and one job without # 'longest_max_lifetime' set. Otherwise some rooms might be ignored, even if # 'allowed_lifetime_min' and 'allowed_lifetime_max' are set, because capping a # room's policy to these values is done after the policies are retrieved from # Synapse's database (which is done using the range specified in a purge job's # configuration). # #purge_jobs: # - longest_max_lifetime: 3d # interval: 12h # - shortest_max_lifetime: 3d # interval: 1d ## TLS ## # PEM-encoded X509 certificate for TLS. # This certificate, as of Synapse 1.0, will need to be a valid and verifiable # certificate, signed by a recognised Certificate Authority. # # Be sure to use a `.pem` file that includes the full certificate chain including # any intermediate certificates (for instance, if using certbot, use # `fullchain.pem` as your certificate, not `cert.pem`). # #tls_certificate_path: "CONFDIR/SERVERNAME.tls.crt" # PEM-encoded private key for TLS # #tls_private_key_path: "CONFDIR/SERVERNAME.tls.key" # Whether to verify TLS server certificates for outbound federation requests. # # Defaults to `true`.

Changes to other parts of # the caching config will NOT be applied after a SIGHUP is received; a restart # is necessary. # The number of events to cache in memory. Not affected by # caches.global_factor. # #event_cache_size: 10K caches: # Controls the global cache factor, which is the default cache factor # for all caches if a specific factor for that cache is not otherwise # set. # # This can also be set by the "SYNAPSE_CACHE_FACTOR" environment # variable. Setting by environment variable takes priority over # setting through the config file. # # Defaults to 0.5, which will half the size of all caches. # #global_factor: 1.0 # A dictionary of cache name to cache factor for that individual # cache. Overrides the global cache factor for a given cache. # # These can also be set through environment variables comprised # of "SYNAPSE_CACHE_FACTOR_" + the name of the cache in capital # letters and underscores. Setting by environment variable # takes priority over setting through the config file. # Ex. SYNAPSE_CACHE_FACTOR_GET_USERS_WHO_SHARE_ROOM_WITH_USER=2.0 # # Some caches have '*' and other characters that are not # alphanumeric or underscores. These caches can be named with or # without the special characters stripped. For example, to specify # the cache factor for `*stateGroupCache*` via an environment # variable would be `SYNAPSE_CACHE_FACTOR_STATEGROUPCACHE=2.0`. # per_cache_factors: #get_users_who_share_room_with_user: 2.0 # Controls whether cache entries are evicted after a specified time # period. Defaults to true. Uncomment to disable this feature. # #expire_caches: false # If expire_caches is enabled, this flag controls how long an entry can # be in a cache without having been accessed before being evicted. # Defaults to 30m. Uncomment to set a different time to live for cache entries. # #cache_entry_ttl: 30m # This flag enables cache autotuning, and is further specified by the # sub-options `max_cache_memory_usage`, `target_cache_memory_usage`, # `min_cache_ttl`. These flags work in conjunction with each other to # maintain a balance between cache memory usage and cache entry # availability. You must be using jemalloc to utilize this option, and # all three of the options must be specified for this feature to work. # #cache_autotuning: # This flag sets a ceiling on much memory the cache can use before # caches begin to be continuously evicted. They will continue to be # evicted until the memory usage drops below the # `target_memory_usage`, set in the flag below, or until the # `min_cache_ttl` is hit. # #max_cache_memory_usage: 1024M # This flag sets a rough target for the desired memory usage of the # caches. # #target_cache_memory_usage: 758M # 'min_cache_ttl` sets a limit under which newer cache entries are not # evicted and is only applied when caches are actively being # evicted/`max_cache_memory_usage` has been exceeded. This is to # protect hot caches from being emptied while Synapse is evicting due # to memory. # #min_cache_ttl: 5m # Controls how long the results of a /sync request are cached for after # a successful response is returned. A higher duration can help clients with # intermittent connections, at the cost of higher memory usage. # # By default, this is zero, which means that sync responses are not cached # at all. # #sync_response_cache_duration: 2m ## Database ## # The 'database' setting defines the database that synapse uses to store all of # its data. # # 'name' gives the database engine to use: either 'sqlite3' (for SQLite) or # 'psycopg2' (for PostgreSQL). # # 'txn_limit' gives the maximum number of transactions to run per connection # before reconnecting. Defaults to 0, which means no limit. # # 'allow_unsafe_locale' is an option specific to Postgres. Under the default behavior, Synapse will refuse to # start if the postgres db is set to a non-C locale.

Required unless 'key_file' is given. # # key_file: the path to file containing a pem-encoded signing key file. # Required unless 'key' is given. # # jwt_header: a dictionary giving properties to include in the JWT # header. Must include the key 'alg', giving the algorithm used to # sign the JWT, such as "ES256", using the JWA identifiers in # RFC7518. # # jwt_payload: an optional dictionary giving properties to include in # the JWT payload. Normally this should include an 'iss' key. # # client_auth_method: auth method to use when exchanging the token. Valid # values are 'client_secret_basic' (default), 'client_secret_post' and # 'none'. # # scopes: list of scopes to request. This should normally include the "openid" # scope.

This setting has the following # sub-properties: # # module: The class name of a custom mapping module. Default is # 'synapse.handlers.oidc.JinjaOidcMappingProvider'. # See https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/sso_mapping_providers.html#openid-mapping-providers # for information on implementing a custom mapping provider. # # config: Configuration for the mapping provider module. This section will # be passed as a Python dictionary to the user mapping provider # module's `parse_config` method. # # For the default provider, the following settings are available: # # subject_claim: name of the claim containing a unique identifier # for the user. Defaults to 'sub', which OpenID Connect # compliant providers should provide. # # localpart_template: Jinja2 template for the localpart of the MXID. # If this is not set, the user will be prompted to choose their # own username (see the documentation for the # 'sso_auth_account_details.html' template). This template can # use the 'localpart_from_email' filter. # # confirm_localpart: Whether to prompt the user to validate (or # change) the generated localpart (see the documentation for the # 'sso_auth_account_details.html' template), instead of # registering the account right away. # # display_name_template: Jinja2 template for the display name to set # on first login. If unset, no displayname will be set. # # email_template: Jinja2 template for the email address of the user. # If unset, no email address will be added to the account. # # extra_attributes: a map of Jinja2 templates for extra attributes # to send back to the client during login. # Note that these are non-standard and clients will ignore them # without modifications. # # When rendering, the Jinja2 templates are given a 'user' variable, # which is set to the claims returned by the UserInfo Endpoint and/or # in the ID Token. # # It is possible to configure Synapse to only allow logins if certain attributes # match particular values in the OIDC userinfo. The requirements can be listed under # `attribute_requirements` as shown below. All of the listed attributes must # match for the login to be permitted. Additional attributes can be added to # userinfo by expanding the `scopes` section of the OIDC config to retrieve # additional information from the OIDC provider. # # If the OIDC claim is a list, then the attribute must match any value in the list. # Otherwise, it must exactly match the value of the claim. Using the example # below, the `family_name` claim MUST be "Stephensson", but the `groups` # claim MUST contain "admin". # # attribute_requirements: # - attribute: family_name # value: "Stephensson" # - attribute: groups # value: "admin" # # See https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/openid.html # for information on how to configure these options. # # For backwards compatibility, it is also possible to configure a single OIDC # provider via an 'oidc_config' setting.
