# AodeRelay
|
||||
_A simple and efficient activitypub relay_
|
||||
|
||||
### Installation
|
||||
#### Docker
|
||||
If running docker, you can start the relay with the following command:
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ sudo docker run --rm -it \
|
||||
-v "./:/mnt/" \
|
||||
-e ADDR=0.0.0.0 \
|
||||
-e SLED_PATH=/mnt/sled/db-0.34 \
|
||||
-p 8080:8080 \
|
||||
asonix/relay:0.3.23
|
||||
```
|
||||
This will launch the relay with the database stored in "./sled/db-0.34" and listening on port 8080
|
||||
#### Cargo
|
||||
With cargo installed, the relay can be installed to your cargo bin directory with the following command
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ cargo install ap-lreay
|
||||
```
|
||||
Then it can be run with this:
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ ADDR=0.0.0.0 relay
|
||||
```
|
||||
This will launch the relay with the database stored in "./sled/db-0.34" and listening on port 8080
|
||||
#### Source
|
||||
The relay can be launched directly from this git repository with the following commands:
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ git clone https://git.asonix.dog/asonix/relay
|
||||
$ ADDR=0.0.0.0 cargo run --release
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Usage
|
||||
To simply run the server, the command is as follows
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
|
@ -34,13 +63,59 @@ $ ./relay -a asonix.dog blimps.xyz
|

$ ./relay -ua asonix.dog blimps.xyz
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Allowed domains are only checked against incoming activities if `RESTRICTED_MODE` is enabled.
|
||||
Blocks can be published in the nodeinfo metadata by setting `PUBLISH_BLOCKS` to true
|
||||
### Configuration
|
||||
By default, all these values are set to development values. These are read from the environment, or
|
||||
from the `.env` file in the working directory.
|
||||
```env
|
||||
HOSTNAME=localhost:8080
|
||||
ADDR=127.0.0.1
|
||||
PORT=8080
|
||||
DEBUG=true
|
||||
RESTRICTED_MODE=false
|
||||
VALIDATE_SIGNATURES=false
|
||||
HTTPS=false
|
||||
PRETTY_LOG=true
|
||||
PUBLISH_BLOCKS=false
|
||||
SLED_PATH=./sled/db-0.34
|
||||
```
|
||||
To run this server in production, you'll likely want to set most of them
|
||||
```env
|
||||
HOSTNAME=relay.my.tld
|
||||
ADDR=0.0.0.0
|
||||
PORT=8080
|
||||
DEBUG=false
|
||||
RESTRICTED_MODE=false
|
||||
VALIDATE_SIGNATURES=true
|
||||
HTTPS=true
|
||||
PRETTY_LOG=false
|
||||
PUBLISH_BLOCKS=true
|
||||
SLED_PATH=./sled/db-0.34
|
||||
OPENTELEMETRY_URL=localhost:4317
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
For advanced setups, it may be useful to run the relay API and the background tasks in separate
|
||||
processes, possibly on separate hosts. The `-j` and `-n` flags have been provided for this purpose.
|
||||
By passing `-n`, a relay can be spawned that handles no deliveries. By passing `-j`, a relay will
|
||||
not be spawned, but any deliveries existing in the database will be processed.
|
||||
#### Descriptions
|
||||
##### `HOSTNAME`
|
||||
The domain or IP address the relay is hosted on. If you launch the relay on `example.com`, that would be your HOSTNAME. The default is `localhost:8080`
|
||||
##### `ADDR`
|
||||
The address the server binds to. By default, this is `127.0.0.1`, so for production cases it should be set to `0.0.0.0` or another public address.
|
||||
##### `PORT`
|
||||
The port the server binds to, this is `8080` by default but can be changed if needed.
|
||||
##### `DEBUG`
|
||||
Whether to print incoming activities to the console when requests hit the /inbox route. This defaults to `true`, but should be set to `false` in production cases. Since every activity sent to the relay is public anyway, this doesn't represent a security risk.
|
||||
##### `RESTRICTED_MODE`
|
||||
This setting enables an 'allowlist' setup where only servers that have been explicitly enabled through the `relay -a` command can join the relay. This is `false` by default. If `RESTRICTED_MODE` is not enabled, then manually allowing domains with `relay -a` has no effect.
|
||||
##### `VALIDATE_SIGNATURES`
|
||||
This setting enforces checking HTTP signatures on incoming activities. It defaults to `false` but should be set to `true` in production scenarios
|
||||
##### `HTTPS`
|
||||
Whether the current server is running on an HTTPS port or not. This is used for generating URLs to the current running relay. By default it is set to `false`, but should be `true` in production scenarios.
|
||||
##### `PUBLISH_BLOCKS`
|
||||
Whether or not to publish a list of blocked domains in the `nodeinfo` metadata for the server. It defaults to `false`.
|
||||
##### `SLED_PATH`
|
||||
Where to store the on-disk database of connected servers. This defaults to `./sled/db-0.34`.
|
||||
##### `SOURCE_REPO`
|
||||
The URL to the source code for the relay. This defaults to `https://git.asonix.dog/asonix/relay`, but should be changed if you're running a fork hosted elsewhere.
|
||||
##### `OPENTELEMETRY_URL`
|
||||
A URL for exporting opentelemetry spans. This is mostly useful for debugging. There is no default, since most people probably don't run an opentelemetry collector.
|
||||
|
||||
### Subscribing
|
||||
Mastodon admins can subscribe to this relay by adding the `/inbox` route to their relay settings.
