# Matrix (An open network for secure, decentralized communication) server setup using Ansible and Docker
|
|
|
|
## Purpose
|
|
|
|
This Ansible playbook is meant to easily let you run your own [Matrix](http://matrix.org/) homeserver.
|
|
|
|
That is, it lets you join the Matrix network with your own `@<username>:<your-domain>` identifier, all hosted on your own server.
|
|
|
|
Using this playbook, you can get the following services configured on your server:
|
|
|
|
- (optional, default) a [Synapse](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse) homeserver - storing your data and managing your presence in the [Matrix](http://matrix.org/) network
|
|
|
|
- (optional) [Amazon S3](https://aws.amazon.com/s3/) storage for Synapse's content repository (`media_store`) files using [Goofys](https://github.com/kahing/goofys)
|
|
|
|
- (optional, default) [PostgreSQL](https://www.postgresql.org/) database for Synapse. [Using an external PostgreSQL server](docs/configuring-playbook-external-postgres.md) is also possible.
|
|
|
|
- (optional, default) a [coturn](https://github.com/coturn/coturn) STUN/TURN server for WebRTC audio/video calls
|
|
|
|
- (optional, default) free [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/) SSL certificate, which secures the connection to the Synapse server and the Element web UI
|
|
|
|
- (optional, default) an [Element](https://app.element.io/) ([formerly Riot](https://element.io/previously-riot)) web UI, which is configured to connect to your own Synapse server by default
|
|
|
|
- (optional, default) an [ma1sd](https://github.com/ma1uta/ma1sd) Matrix Identity server
|
|
|
|
- (optional, default) an [Exim](https://www.exim.org/) mail server, through which all Matrix services send outgoing email (can be configured to relay through another SMTP server)
|
|
|
|
- (optional, default) an [nginx](http://nginx.org/) web server, listening on ports 80 and 443 - standing in front of all the other services. Using your own webserver [is possible](docs/configuring-playbook-own-webserver.md)
|
|

|
Basically, this playbook aims to get you up-and-running with all the basic necessities around Matrix, without you having to do anything else.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: the list above is exhaustive. It includes optional or even some advanced components that you will most likely not need.
|
|
Sticking with the defaults (which install a subset of the above components) is the best choice, especially for a new installation.
|
|
You can always re-run the playbook later to add or remove components.

|
## What's different about this Ansible playbook?
|
|
|
|
This is similar to the [EMnify/matrix-synapse-auto-deploy](https://github.com/EMnify/matrix-synapse-auto-deploy) Ansible deployment, but:
|
|
|
|
- this one is a complete Ansible playbook (instead of just a role), so it's **easier to run** - especially for folks not familiar with Ansible
|
|
|
|
- this one installs and hooks together **a lot more Matrix-related services** for you (see above)
|
|
|
|
- this one **can be executed more than once** without causing trouble
|
|
|
|
- works on various distros: **CentOS** (7.0+), Debian-based distributions (**Debian** 9/Stretch+, **Ubuntu** 16.04+), **Archlinux**
|
|
|
|
- this one installs everything in a single directory (`/matrix` by default) and **doesn't "contaminate" your server** with files all over the place
|
|
|
|
- this one **doesn't necessarily take over** ports 80 and 443. By default, it sets up nginx for you there, but you can also [use your own webserver](docs/configuring-playbook-own-webserver.md)
|
|
|
|
- this one **runs everything in Docker containers**, so it's likely more predictable and less fragile (see [Docker images used by this playbook](#docker-images-used-by-this-playbook))
|
|
|
|
- this one retrieves and automatically renews free [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/) **SSL certificates** for you
|
|
|
|
- this one optionally can store the `media_store` content repository files on [Amazon S3](https://aws.amazon.com/s3/) (but defaults to storing files on the server's filesystem)
|
|
|
|
- this one optionally **allows you to use an external PostgreSQL server** for Synapse's database (but defaults to running one in a container)
|
|
|
|
- helps you **import data from a previous installation** (so you can migrate your manual virtualenv/Docker setup to a more managed one)
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
To configure and install Matrix on your own server, follow the [README in the docs/ directory](docs/README.md).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Changes

|
|
|
This playbook evolves over time, sometimes with backward-incompatible changes.
