Must be lower-case. # Options: ["trace","debug","info","warn","error","fatal"] # Default: "info" log-level: "info" # Bool. Log database queries when log-level is set to debug or trace. # This setting produces verbose logs, so it's better to only enable it # when you're trying to track an issue down. # Options: [true, false] # Default: false log-db-queries: false # Bool. Include the client IP in the emitted log lines # Options: [true, false] # Default: true log-client-ip: true # String. Format to use for the timestamp in log lines. # If set to the empty string, the timestamp will be # ommitted from the logs entirely. # # The format must be compatible with Go's time.Layout, as # documented on https://pkg.go.dev/time#pkg-constants. # # Examples: ["2006-01-02T15:04:05.000Z07:00", ""] # Default: "02/01/2006 15:04:05.000" log-timestamp-format: "02/01/2006 15:04:05.000" # String. Application name to use internally. # Examples: ["My Application","gotosocial"] # Default: "gotosocial" application-name: "gotosocial" # String. The user that will be shown instead of the landing page. if no user is set, the landing page will be shown. # Examples: "admin" # Default: "" landing-page-user: "" # String. Hostname that this server will be reachable at. Defaults to localhost for local testing, # but you should *definitely* change this when running for real, or your server won't work at all. # DO NOT change this after your server has already run once, or you will break things! # Examples: ["gts.example.org","some.server.com"] # Default: "localhost" host: "localhost" # String. Domain to use when federating profiles. This is useful when you want your server to be at # eg., "gts.example.org", but you want the domain on accounts to be "example.org" because it looks better # or is just shorter/easier to remember. # # To make this setting work properly, you need to redirect requests at "example.org/.well-known/webfinger" # to "gts.example.org/.well-known/webfinger" so that GtS can handle them properly. # # You should also redirect requests at "example.org/.well-known/nodeinfo" in the same way. # # You should also redirect requests at "example.org/.well-known/host-meta" in the same way. This endpoint # is used by a number of clients to discover the API endpoint to use when the host and account domain are # different. # # An empty string (ie., not set) means that the same value as 'host' will be used. # # DO NOT change this after your server has already run once, or you will break things! # # Please read the appropriate section of the installation guide before you go messing around with this setting: # https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/advanced/host-account-domain/ # # Examples: ["example.org","server.com"] # Default: "" account-domain: "" # String. Protocol to use for the server. Only change to http for local testing! # This should be the protocol part of the URI that your server is actually reachable on. So even if you're # running GoToSocial behind a reverse proxy that handles SSL certificates for you, instead of using built-in # letsencrypt, it should still be https. # Options: ["http","https"] # Default: "https" protocol: "https" # String. Address to bind the GoToSocial server to. # This can be an IPv4 address or an IPv6 address (surrounded in square brackets), or a hostname. # The default value will bind to all interfaces, which makes the server # accessible by other machines. For most setups there is no need to change this. # If you are using GoToSocial in a reverse proxy setup with the proxy running on # the same machine, you will want to set this to "localhost" or an equivalent, # so that the proxy can't be bypassed. # Examples: ["0.0.0.0", "172.128.0.16", "localhost", "[::]", "[2001:db8::fed1]"] # Default: "0.0.0.0" bind-address: "0.0.0.0" # Int. Listen port for the GoToSocial webserver + API. If you're running behind a reverse proxy and/or in a docker, # container, just set this to whatever you like (or leave the default), and make sure it's forwarded properly. # If you are running with built-in letsencrypt enabled, and running GoToSocial directly on a host machine, you will # probably want to set this to 443 (standard https port), unless you have other services already using that port. # This *MUST NOT* be the same as the letsencrypt port specified below, unless letsencrypt is turned off. # Examples: [443, 6666, 8080] # Default: 8080 port: 8080 # Array of string. CIDRs or IP addresses of proxies that should be trusted when determining real client IP from behind a reverse proxy. # If you're running inside a Docker container behind Traefik or Nginx, for example, add the subnet of your docker network, # or the gateway of the docker network, and/or the address of the reverse proxy (if it's not running on the host network). # Example: ["127.0.0.1/32", "172.20.0.1"] # Default: ["127.0.0.1/32", "::1"] (localhost ipv4 + ipv6) trusted-proxies: - "127.0.0.1/32" - "::1" ############################ ##### DATABASE CONFIG ###### ############################ # Config pertaining to the Gotosocial database connection # String. Database type. # Options: ["postgres","sqlite"] # Default: "postgres" db-type: "postgres" # String. Database address or parameters. # # For Postgres, this should be the address or socket at which the database can be reached. # # For Sqlite, this should be the path to your sqlite database file. Eg., /opt/gotosocial/sqlite.db. # If the file doesn't exist at the specified path, it will be created. # If just a filename is provided (no directory) then the database will be created in the same directory # as the GoToSocial binary. # If address is set to :memory: then an in-memory database will be used (no file). # WARNING: :memory: should NOT BE USED except for testing purposes. # # Examples: ["localhost","my.db.host","127.0.0.1","192.111.39.110",":memory:", "sqlite.db"] # Default: "" db-address: "" # Int.

Name of the database to use within the provided database type. # Examples: ["mydb","postgres","gotosocial"] # Default: "gotosocial" db-database: "gotosocial" # String. Disable, enable, or require SSL/TLS connection to the database. # If "disable" then no TLS connection will be attempted. # If "enable" then TLS will be tried, but the database certificate won't be checked (for self-signed certs). # If "require" then TLS will be required to make a connection, and a valid certificate must be presented. # Options: ["disable", "enable", "require"] # Default: "disable" db-tls-mode: "disable" # String. Path to a CA certificate on the host machine for db certificate validation. # If this is left empty, just the host certificates will be used. # If filled in, the certificate will be loaded and added to host certificates. # Examples: ["/path/to/some/cert.crt"] # Default: "" db-tls-ca-cert: "" # Int. Number to multiply by CPU count to set permitted total of open database connections (in-use and idle). # You can use this setting to tune your database connection behavior, though most admins won't need to touch it. # # Example values for multiplier 8: # # 1 cpu = 08 open connections # 2 cpu = 16 open connections # 4 cpu = 32 open connections # # Example values for multiplier 4: # # 1 cpu = 04 open connections # 2 cpu = 08 open connections # 4 cpu = 16 open connections # # A multiplier of 8 is a sensible default, but you may wish to increase this for instances # running on very performant hardware, or decrease it for instances using v. slow CPUs. # # If you set the multiplier to less than 1, only one open connection will be used regardless of cpu count. # # Examples: [16, 8, 10, 2] # Default: 8 db-max-open-conns-multiplier: 8 # String. SQLite journaling mode. # SQLite only -- unused otherwise. # If set to empty string, the sqlite default will be used. # See: https://www.sqlite.org/pragma.html#pragma_journal_mode # Examples: ["DELETE", "TRUNCATE", "PERSIST", "MEMORY", "WAL", "OFF"] # Default: "WAL" db-sqlite-journal-mode: "WAL" # String. SQLite synchronous mode. # SQLite only -- unused otherwise. # If set to empty string, the sqlite default will be used. # See: https://www.sqlite.org/pragma.html#pragma_synchronous # Examples: ["OFF", "NORMAL", "FULL", "EXTRA"] # Default: "NORMAL" db-sqlite-synchronous: "NORMAL" # Byte size. SQlite cache size. # SQLite only -- unused otherwise. # If set to empty string or zero, the sqlite default (2MiB) will be used. # See: https://www.sqlite.org/pragma.html#pragma_cache_size # # More is not necessarily better for caches. They need to be tuned to the # workload. The defaults should be plenty for most instances and you shouldn't # change it. If you do change it, ensure you mention this when requesting help # in the GoToSocial Help channel. # # Examples: ["0", "2MiB", "8MiB", "64MiB"] # Default: "8MiB" db-sqlite-cache-size: "8MiB" # Duration. SQlite busy timeout. # SQLite only -- unused otherwise. # If set to empty string or zero, the sqlite default will be used. # See: https://www.sqlite.org/pragma.html#pragma_busy_timeout # Examples: ["0s", "1s", "30s", "1m", "5m"] # Default: "30m" db-sqlite-busy-timeout: "30m" cache: # cache.memory-target sets a target limit that # the application will try to keep it's caches # within. This is based on estimated sizes of # in-memory objects, and so NOT AT ALL EXACT. # Examples: ["100MiB", "200MiB", "500MiB", "1GiB"] # Default: "100MiB" memory-target: "100MiB" ###################### ##### WEB CONFIG ##### ###################### # Config pertaining to templating and serving of web pages/email notifications and the like # String.

Directory from which gotosocial will attempt to serve static web assets (images, scripts). # Examples: ["/some/absolute/path/", "./relative/path/", "../../some/weird/path/"] # Default: "./web/assets/" web-asset-base-dir: "./web/assets/" ########################### ##### INSTANCE CONFIG ##### ########################### # Config pertaining to instance federation settings, pages to hide/expose, etc. # Array of string. BCP47 language tags to indicate preferred languages of users on this instance. # # If you provide these, you should provide these in order from most-preferred to least-preferred, # but note that leaving out a language from this array doesn't mean it can't be used on this instance, # it only means it won't be advertised as a preferred instance language. # # It is valid to provide no entries here; your instance will then have no particular preferred language. # # See here for commonly-used tags: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IETF_language_tag#List_of_common_primary_language_subtags # See here for all current tags: https://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry/language-subtag-registry # # Example: ["nl", "en-gb", "fr"] # Default: [] instance-languages: [] # String. Federation mode to use for this instance. # # "blocklist" -- open federation by default. Only instances that are explicitly # blocked will be denied (unless they are also explicitly allowed). # # "allowlist" -- closed federation by default. Only instances that are explicitly # allowed will be able to interact with this instance. # # For more details on blocklist and allowlist modes, check the documentation at: # https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/admin/federation_modes # # Options: ["blocklist", "allowlist"] # Default: "blocklist" instance-federation-mode: "blocklist" # Bool. Enable spam filtering heuristics for messages entering your instance # via the federation API. Regardless of what you set here, basic checks # for message relevancy will still be performed, but you can try enabling # this setting if you are being spammed with unwanted messages from other # instances, and want to more strictly filter out spam messages. # # THIS IS CURRENTLY AN EXPERIMENTAL SETTING, AND MAY FILTER OUT LEGITIMATE # MESSAGES, OR FAIL TO FILTER OUT SPAMMY MESSAGES. It is recommended to # only enable this setting when the fediverse is in the midst of a spam # wave, and you need to batten down the hatches to keep your instance usable. # # The decision of whether a message counts as spam or not is made based on # the following heuristics, in order, where receiver = the account on your # instance that received a message in their inbox, and requester = the # account on a remote instance that sent the message. # # First, basic relevancy checks # # 1. Receiver follows requester. Return OK. # 2. Statusable doesn't mention receiver. Return NotRelevant. # # If instance-federation-spam-filter = false, then return OK now. # Otherwise check: # # 3. Receiver is locked and is followed by requester. Return OK. # 4. Five or more people are mentioned. Return Spam. # 5. Receiver follow (requests) a mentioned account. Return OK. # 6. Statusable has a media attachment. Return Spam. # 7. Statusable contains non-mention, non-hashtag links. Return Spam. # # Messages identified as spam will be dropped from your instance, and not # inserted into the database, or into home timelines or notifications. # # Options: [true, false] # Default: false instance-federation-spam-filter: false # Bool. Allow unauthenticated users to make queries to /api/v1/instance/peers?filter=open in order # to see a list of instances that this instance 'peers' with. Even if set to 'false', then authenticated # users (members of the instance) will still be able to query the endpoint. # Options: [true, false] # Default: false instance-expose-peers: false # Bool. Allow unauthenticated users to make queries to /api/v1/instance/peers?filter=suspended in order # to see a list of instances that this instance blocks/suspends. Even if set to 'false', then authenticated # users (members of the instance) will still be able to query the endpoint. # # WARNING: Setting this variable to 'true' may result in your instance being scraped by blocklist scrapers. # See: https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/admin/domain_blocks/#block-announce-bots # # Options: [true, false] # Default: false instance-expose-suspended: false # Bool. Allow unauthenticated users to view /about/suspended, # showing the HTML rendered list of instances that this instance blocks/suspends. # Options: [true, false] # Default: false instance-expose-suspended-web: false # Bool. Allow unauthenticated users to make queries to /api/v1/timelines/public in order # to see a list of public posts on this server. Even if set to 'false', then authenticated # users (members of the instance) will still be able to query the endpoint. # Options: [true, false] # Default: false instance-expose-public-timeline: false # Bool. This flag tweaks whether GoToSocial will deliver ActivityPub messages # to the shared inbox of a recipient, if one is available, instead of delivering # each message to each actor who should receive a message individually. # # Shared inbox delivery can significantly reduce network load when delivering # to multiple recipients share an inbox (eg., on large Mastodon instances). # # See: https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/#shared-inbox-delivery # # Options: [true, false] # Default: true instance-deliver-to-shared-inboxes: true # Bool. This flag will inject a Mastodon version into the version field that # is included in /api/v1/instance. This version is often used by Mastodon clients # to do API feature detection. By injecting a Mastodon compatible version, it is # possible to cajole those clients to behave correctly with GoToSocial. # # Options: [true, false] # Default: false instance-inject-mastodon-version: false ########################### ##### ACCOUNTS CONFIG ##### ########################### # Config pertaining to creation and maintenance of accounts on the server, as well as defaults for new accounts. # Bool. Do we want people to be able to just submit sign up requests, or do we want invite only? # Options: [true, false] # Default: true accounts-registration-open: true # Bool. Are sign up requests required to submit a reason for the request (eg., an explanation of why they want to join the instance)? # Options: [true, false] # Default: true accounts-reason-required: true # Bool. Allow accounts on this instance to set custom CSS for their profile pages and statuses. # Enabling this setting will allow accounts to upload custom CSS via the /user settings page, # which will then be rendered on the web view of the account's profile and statuses. # # For instances with public sign ups, it is **HIGHLY RECOMMENDED** to leave this setting on 'false', # since setting it to true allows malicious accounts to make their profile pages misleading, unusable # or even dangerous to visitors. In other words, you should only enable this setting if you trust # the users on your instance not to produce harmful CSS. # # Regardless of what this value is set to, any uploaded CSS will not be federated to other instances, # it will only be shown on profiles and statuses on *this* instance. # # Options: [true, false] # Default: false accounts-allow-custom-css: false # Int. If accounts-allow-custom-css is true, this is the permitted length in characters for # CSS uploaded by accounts on this instance. No effect if accounts-allow-custom-css is false. # # Examples: [500, 5000, 9999] # Default: 10000 accounts-custom-css-length: 10000 ######################## ##### MEDIA CONFIG ##### ######################## # Config pertaining to media uploads (videos, image, image descriptions, emoji). # Size. Maximum allowed image upload size in bytes. # # Raising this limit may cause other servers to not fetch media # attached to a post. # # Examples: [2097152, 10485760, 10MB, 10MiB] # Default: 10MiB (10485760 bytes) media-image-max-size: 10MiB # Size. Maximum allowed video upload size in bytes. # # Raising this limit may cause other servers to not fetch media # attached to a post. # # Examples: [2097152, 10485760, 40MB, 40MiB] # Default: 40MiB (41943040 bytes) media-video-max-size: 40MiB # Int.

Maximum amount of characters permitted in an image or video description. # Examples: [1000, 1500, 3000] # Default: 1500 media-description-max-chars: 1500 # Size. Max size in bytes of emojis uploaded to this instance via the admin API. # # The default is the same as the Mastodon size limit for emojis (50kb), which allows # for good interoperability. Raising this limit may cause issues with federation # of your emojis to other instances, so beware. # # Examples: [51200, 102400, 50KB, 50KiB] # Default: 50KiB (51200 bytes) media-emoji-local-max-size: 50KiB # Size. Max size in bytes of emojis to download from other instances. # # By default this is 100kb, or twice the size of the default for media-emoji-local-max-size. # This strikes a good balance between decent interoperability with instances that have # higher emoji size limits, and not taking up too much space in storage. # # Examples: [51200, 102400, 100KB, 100KiB] # Default: 100KiB (102400 bytes) media-emoji-remote-max-size: 100KiB # The below media cleanup settings allow admins to customize when and # how often media cleanup + prune jobs run, while being set to a fairly # sensible default (every night @ midnight). For more information on exactly # what these settings do, with some customization examples, see the docs: # https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/admin/media_caching#cleanup # Int. Number of days to cache media from remote instances before # they are removed from the cache. When remote media is removed from # the cache, it is deleted from storage but the database entries for # the media are kept so that it can be fetched again if requested by a user. # # If this is set to 0, then media from remote instances will be cached indefinitely. # # Examples: [30, 60, 7, 0] # Default: 7 media-remote-cache-days: 7 # String. 24hr time of day formatted as hh:mm. # Examples: ["14:30", "00:00", "04:00"] # Default: "00:00" (midnight). media-cleanup-from: "00:00" # Duration. Period between media cleanup runs. # More than once per 24h is not recommended # is likely overkill. Setting this to something # very low like once every 10 minutes will probably # cause lag and possibly other issues. # Examples: ["24h", "72h", "12h"] # Default: "24h" (once per day). media-cleanup-every: "24h" ########################## ##### STORAGE CONFIG ##### ########################## # Config pertaining to storage of user-created uploads (videos, images, etc). # String.

Secret key part of the S3 credentials. # Consider setting this value using environment variables to avoid leaking it via the config file # Only required when running with the s3 storage backend. # Examples: ["5bEYu26084qjSFyclM/f2pz4gviSfoOg+mFwBH39","miniopassword"] # Default: "" storage-s3-secret-key: "" # String. Name of the storage bucket. # # If you have already encoded your bucket name in the storage-s3-endpoint, this # value will be used as a directory containing your data. # # The bucket must exist prior to starting GoToSocial # # Only required when running with the s3 storage backend. # Examples: ["gts","cool-instance"] # Default: "" storage-s3-bucket: "" ########################### ##### STATUSES CONFIG ##### ########################### # Config pertaining to the creation of statuses/posts, and permitted limits. # Int. Maximum amount of characters permitted for a new status, # including the content warning (if set). # # Note that going way higher than the default might break federation. # # Examples: [140, 500, 5000] # Default: 5000 statuses-max-chars: 5000 # Int.

Directory in which to store LetsEncrypt certificates. # It is a good move to make this a sub-path within your storage directory, as it makes # backup easier, but you might wish to move them elsewhere if they're also accessed by other services. # In any case, make sure GoToSocial has permissions to write to / read from this directory. # Examples: ["/home/gotosocial/storage/certs", "/acmecerts"] # Default: "/gotosocial/storage/certs" letsencrypt-cert-dir: "/gotosocial/storage/certs" # String. Email address to use when registering LetsEncrypt certs. # Most likely, this will be the email address of the instance administrator. # LetsEncrypt will send notifications about expiring certificates etc to this address. # Examples: ["admin@example.org"] # Default: "" letsencrypt-email-address: "" ############################## ##### MANUAL TLS CONFIG ##### ############################## # String. Path to a PEM-encoded file on disk that includes the certificate chain # and the public key # Examples: ["/gotosocial/storage/certs/chain.pem"] # Default: "" tls-certificate-chain: "" # String.

The hostname of the smtp server you want to use. # If this is not set, smtp will not be used to send emails, and you can ignore the other settings. # Examples: ["mail.example.org", "localhost"] # Default: "" smtp-host: "" # Int. Port to use to connect to the smtp server. # Examples: [] # Default: 0 smtp-port: 0 # String. Username to use when authenticating with the smtp server. # This should have been provided to you by your smtp host. # This is often, but not always, an email address. # Examples: ["maillord@example.org"] # Default: "" smtp-username: "" # String. Password to use when authenticating with the smtp server. # This should have been provided to you by your smtp host. # Examples: ["1234", "password"] # Default: "" smtp-password: "" # String. 'From' address for sent emails. # Examples: ["mail@example.org"] # Default: "" smtp-from: "" # Bool. If true, when an email is sent that has multiple recipients, each recipient # will be included in the To field, so that each recipient can see who else got the # email, and they can 'reply all' to the other recipients if they want to. # # If false, email will be sent to Undisclosed Recipients, and each recipient will not # be able to see who else received the email. # # It might be useful to change this setting to 'true' if you want to be able to discuss # new moderation reports with other admins by 'replying-all' to the notification email. # Default: false smtp-disclose-recipients: false ######################### ##### SYSLOG CONFIG ##### ######################### # Config for additional syslog log hooks. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syslog, # and https://github.com/sirupsen/logrus/tree/master/hooks/syslog. # # These settings are useful when one wants to daemonize GoToSocial and send logs # to a specific place, either a local location or a syslog server. Most users will # not need to touch these settings. # Bool. Enable the syslog logging hook. Logs will be mirrored to the configured destination. # Options: [true, false] # Default: false syslog-enabled: false # String. Protocol to use when directing logs to syslog. Leave empty to connect to local syslog. # Options: ["udp", "tcp", ""] # Default: "udp" syslog-protocol: "udp" # String. Address:port to send syslog logs to. Leave empty to connect to local syslog. # Default: "localhost:514" syslog-address: "localhost:514" ################################## ##### OBSERVABILITY SETTINGS ##### ################################## # String. Header name to use to extract a request or trace ID from. Typically set by a # loadbalancer or proxy. # Default: "X-Request-Id" request-id-header: "X-Request-Id" # Bool. Enable OpenTelemetry based tracing support. # Default: false tracing-enabled: false # String. Set the transport protocol for the tracing system. Can either be "grpc" # for OTLP gRPC, or "http" for OTLP HTTP. # Options: ["grpc", "http"] # Default: "grpc" tracing-transport: "grpc" # String. Endpoint of the trace ingester. When using the gRPC or HTTP based transports, # provide the endpoint as a single address/port combination without a protocol scheme. # Examples: ["localhost:4317"] # Default: "" tracing-endpoint: "" # Bool. Disable TLS for the gRPC and HTTP transport protocols. # Default: false tracing-insecure-transport: false # Bool. Enable OpenTelemetry based metrics support. # Default: false metrics-enabled: false # Bool. Enable HTTP Basic Authentication for Prometheus metrics endpoint. # Default: false metrics-auth-enabled: false # String. Username for Prometheus metrics endpoint. # Default: "" metrics-auth-username: "" # String. Password for Prometheus metrics endpoint. # Default: "" metrics-auth-password: "" ################################ ##### HTTP CLIENT SETTINGS ##### ################################ # Settings for OUTGOING http client connections used by GoToSocial to make # requests to remote resources (status GETs, media GETs, inbox POSTs, etc). http-client: # Duration. Timeout to use for outgoing HTTP requests. If the timeout # is exceeded, the connection to the remote server will be dropped. # A value of 0s indicates no timeout: this is not advised! # Examples: ["5s", "10s", "0s"] # Default: "10s" timeout: "10s" ######################################## #### RESERVED IP RANGE EXCEPTIONS ###### ######################################## # # Explicitly allow or block outgoing dialing within the provided IPv4/v6 CIDR ranges. # # By default, as a basic security precaution, GoToSocial blocks outgoing dialing within most "special-purpose" # IP ranges. However, it may be desirable for admins with more exotic setups (proxies, funky NAT, etc) to # explicitly override one or more of these otherwise blocked ranges. # # Each of the below allow/block config options accepts an array of IPv4 and/or IPv6 CIDR strings. # For example, to override the hardcoded block of IPv4 and IPv6 dialing to localhost, set: # # allow-ips: ["127.0.0.1/32", "::1/128"]. # # You can also use YAML multi-line arrays to define these, but be diligent with indentation. # # When dialing, GoToSocial will first check if the destination falls within explicitly allowed IP ranges, # then explicitly blocked IP ranges, then the default (hardcoded) blocked IP ranges, returning OK on the # first allowed match, not OK on the first blocked match, or just defaulting to OK if nothing is matched. # # As with all security settings, it is better to start too restrictive and then ease off depending on # your use case, than to start too permissive and try to close the stable door after the horse has # already bolted. With this in mind: # - Don't touch these settings unless you have a good reason to, and only if you know what you're doing. # - When adding explicitly allowed exceptions, use the narrowest possible CIDR for your use case. # # For reserved / special ranges, see: # - https://www.iana.org/assignments/iana-ipv4-special-registry/iana-ipv4-special-registry.xhtml # - https://www.iana.org/assignments/iana-ipv6-special-registry/iana-ipv6-special-registry.xhtml # # Both allow-ips and block-ips default to an empty array. allow-ips: [] block-ips: [] # Bool. Disable verification of TLS certificates of remote servers. # With this set to 'true', GoToSocial will not error when a remote # server presents an invalid or self-signed certificate. # # THIS SETTING SHOULD BE USED FOR TESTING ONLY! IF YOU TURN THIS # ON WHILE RUNNING IN PRODUCTION YOU ARE LEAVING YOUR SERVER WIDE # OPEN TO MAN IN THE MIDDLE ATTACKS! DO NOT CHANGE THIS SETTING # UNLESS YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND WHY YOU'RE DOING IT. # # Default: false tls-insecure-skip-verify: false ############################# ##### ADVANCED SETTINGS ##### ############################# # Advanced settings pertaining to http timeouts, security, cookies, and more. # # ONLY ADJUST THESE SETTINGS IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING! # # Most users will not need to (and should not) touch these settings, since # they are set to sensible defaults, and may break if they are changed. # # Nevertheless, they are provided for the sake of allowing server admins to # tweak their instance for performance or security reasons. # String. Value of the SameSite attribute of cookies set by GoToSocial. # Defaults to 'lax' to ensure that the OIDC flow does not break, which is # fine in most cases. If you want to harden your instance against CSRF attacks # and don't mind if some login-related things might break, you can set this # to 'strict' instead. # # For an overview of what this does, see: # https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Set-Cookie/SameSite # # Options: ["lax", "strict"] # Default: "lax" advanced-cookies-samesite: "lax" # Int. Amount of requests to permit per router grouping from a single IP address within # a span of 5 minutes. If this amount is exceeded, a 429 HTTP error code will be returned. # # If you find yourself adjusting this limit because it's regularly being exceeded, # you should first verify that your settings for `trusted-proxies` (above) are correct. # In many cases, when the rate limit is exceeded it is because your instance sees all # incoming requests as coming from the *same IP address* (you can verify this by looking # at the client IPs in your instance logs). If this is the case, try adding that IP # address to your `trusted-proxies` *BEFORE* you go adjusting this rate limit setting! # # If you set this to 0 or less, rate limiting will be disabled entirely. # # Examples: [1000, 500, 0] # Default: 300 advanced-rate-limit-requests: 300 # Array of string. CIDRs to except from rate limit restrictions. # Any IPs inside the CIDR range(s) will not have rate limiting # applied on their requests, and rate limit headers will not be # set for those requests. # # For IPv6, we only take subnets up to a /64 into account. If you # want to open up a larger prefix, you'll need to list multiple # prefixes instead. # # This can be useful in the following example cases (and probably # a bunch of others as well): # # 1. You've set up an automated service that uses the API, and # it keeps getting rate limited, even though you trust it's # not abusing the instance. # # 2. You live with multiple people who use the same instance, # and you're all using the same router/NAT, so you all have # the same IP address, and you keep rate limiting each other. # # 3. You mostly use your own home internet to access your instance, # and you want to exempt your home internet from rate limiting. # # You should be careful when adjusting this setting, since you # might inadvertently make rate limiting useless if you set too # wide a range. If in doubt, be too restrictive rather than too # lenient, and adjust as you go. # # Example: ["192.168.0.0/16", "2001:DB8:FACE:CAFE::/64"] # Default: [] advanced-rate-limit-exceptions: [] # Int. Amount of open requests to permit per CPU, per router grouping, before applying http # request throttling. Any requests beyond the calculated limit are held in a backlog queue for # up to 30 seconds before either being processed or timing out. Requests that don't fit in the backlog # queue will have status 503 returned to them, and the header 'Retry-After' will be set to 30 seconds. # # Open request limit is available CPUs * multiplier; backlog queue limit is limit * multiplier. # # Example values for multiplier 8: # # 1 cpu = 08 open, 064 backlog # 2 cpu = 16 open, 128 backlog # 4 cpu = 32 open, 256 backlog # # Example values for multiplier 4: # # 1 cpu = 04 open, 016 backlog # 2 cpu = 08 open, 032 backlog # 4 cpu = 16 open, 064 backlog # # A multiplier of 8 is a sensible default, but you may wish to increase this for instances # running on very performant hardware, or decrease it for instances using v. slow CPUs. # # If you set this to 0 or less, http request throttling will be disabled entirely. # # Examples: [8, 4, 9, 0] # Default: 8 advanced-throttling-multiplier: 8 # Duration. Time period to use as the "retry-after" header value in response to throttled requests. # Minimum resolution is 1 second. # # Examples: [30s, 10s, 5s, 1m] # Default: "30s" advanced-throttling-retry-after: "30s" # Int. CPU multiplier for the fixed number of goroutines to spawn in order to send messages via ActivityPub. # Messages will be batched and pushed to a singular queue, from which multiplier * CPU count goroutines will # pull and attempt deliveries. This can be tuned to limit concurrent posting to remote inboxes, preventing # your instance CPU usage skyrocketing when accounts with many followers post statuses. # # If you set this to 0 or less, only 1 sender will be used regardless of CPU count. This may be # useful in cases where you are working with very tight network or CPU constraints. # # Example values for multiplier 2 (default): # # 1 cpu = 2 concurrent senders # 2 cpu = 4 concurrent senders # 4 cpu = 8 concurrent senders # # Example values for multiplier 4: # # 1 cpu = 4 concurrent senders # 2 cpu = 8 concurrent senders # 4 cpu = 16 concurrent senders # # Example values for multiplier <1: # # 1 cpu = 1 concurrent sender # 2 cpu = 1 concurrent sender # 4 cpu = 1 concurrent sender advanced-sender-multiplier: 2 # Array of string. Extra URIs to add to 'img-src' and 'media-src' # when building the Content-Security-Policy header for your instance. # # This can be used to allow the browser to load resources from additional # sources like S3 buckets and so on when viewing your instance's pages # and profiles in the browser. # # Since non-proxying S3 storage will be probed on instance launch to # generate a correct Content-Security-Policy, you probably won't need # to ever touch this setting, but it's included in the 'spirit of more # configurable (usually) means more good'. # # See: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CSP # # Example: ["s3.example.org", "some-bucket-name.s3.example.org"] # Default: [] advanced-csp-extra-uris: [] # String. HTTP request header filtering mode to use for this instance. # # "block" -- only requests that are explicitly blocked by header filters # will be denied (unless they are also explicitly allowed). # # "allow" -- only requests that are explicitly allowed by header filters # will be accepted (unless they are also explicitly blocked). # # "" -- request header filtering disabled. # # For more details on block and allow modes, check the documentation at: # https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/admin/request_filtering_modes # # Options: ["block", "allow", ""] # Default: "" advanced-header-filter-mode: ""
