Our default configuration places the SQLite DB in /gotosocial/, but the
AppArmor profile doesn't allow us to write there. Instead of making the
whole directory writable, add a writable area in /gotosocial/db/ instead
and advise in the docs to move the DB there.
This adds a section to the docs instructing how to ensure apps will be
able to successfully login to an instance when host- and account-domain
differ.
Resolves#1609
* [feature] Provide .well-known/host-meta endpoint
This adds the host-meta endpoint as Mastodon clients use this to
discover the API domain to use when the host and account domains aren't
the same.
* Address review comments
* [bug] Fix nginx fileserver caching example
This updates the example to ensure the nginx proxies the request on to
GTS if the file is not found on disk. This can happen due to media
pruning.
* [chore] Set cache-control in nginx to private
This makes the header match with the backend. For things from the
fileserver it may not be appropriate for anything other than a private
cache (i.e the client) to cache things.
* serve publickey separately from AP, don't throttle it
* update nginx cache documentation, cache main-key too
* throttle public key, but separately from other endpoints
* [docs] Serve static assets with nginx
This explains how to use nginx to serve static assets and offload GTS
from that responsibility. It also shows how to have nginx add caching
headers to indicate to clients how long they may cache an asset.
* [docs] Move additional nginx config to advanced
This moves a bunch of additional nginx configuration into the Advanced
page instead. It declutters the nginx configuration page.
* Enable the 'admonitions' Markdown extension for Mkdocs.
The admonitions extension to Python-Markdown allows you to include
rST-style "admonitions" to Markdown documents, for instance,
!!! note
Here's an important note to keep in mind!
In general, the current documentation uses bold text to try to achieve
the same effect, which is a bit harder to notice and makes it difficult
to differentiate between "here's something useful to know" versus "here
there be dragons".
* Add AppArmor profile and documentation for LSM-related sandboxing
This commit adds an AppArmor profile for gotosocial in
examples/apparmor/gotosocial. This will (hopefully) serve as a helpful
security mitigation for people are planning on deploying GTS on a
Debian-family Linux distribution.
I've also updates the documentation to include some information about
deploying GTS with either AppArmor or SELinux (moving the documentation
for the former out of the "binary installation guide" docs).
