# Setting up matrix-media-repo (optional)
|
|
|
|
[matrix-media-repo](https://docs.t2bot.io/matrix-media-repo/) is a highly customizable multi-domain media repository for Matrix. Intended for medium to large environments consisting of several homeservers, this media repo de-duplicates media (including remote media) while being fully compliant with the specification.
|
|
|
|
Smaller/individual homeservers can still make use of this project's features, though it may be difficult to set up or have higher than expected resource consumption. Please do your research before deploying this as this project may not be useful for your environment.
|
|
|
|
For a simpler alternative (which allows you to offload your media repository storage to S3, etc.), you can [configure S3 storage](configuring-playbook-s3.md) instead of setting up matrix-media-repo.
|
|
|
|
## Quickstart
|
|
|
|
Add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.DOMAIN/vars.yml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
matrix_media_repo_enabled: true
|
|
|
|
# (optional) Turned off by default
|
|
# matrix_media_repo_metrics_enabled: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The repo is pre-configured for integrating with the Postgres database, NGINX proxy and [Prometheus/Grafana](configuring-playbook-prometheus-grafana.md) (if metrics enabled) from this playbook for all the available homeserver roles. When the media repo is enabled, other media store roles should be disabled (if using Synapse with other media store roles).
|
|
|
|
By default, the media-repo will use the local filesystem for data storage. Additional options include `s3` and `IPFS` (experimental). Access token caching is also enabled by default since the logout endpoints are proxied through the media repo.
|
|
|
|
## Configuring the media-repo
|
|
|
|
Additional common configuration options:
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
|
# The postgres database pooling options
|
|
|
|
# The maximum number of connects to hold open. More of these allow for more concurrent
|
|
# processes to happen.
|
|
matrix_media_repo_database_max_connections: 25
|
|
|
|
# The maximum number of connects to leave idle. More of these reduces the time it takes
|
|
# to serve requests in low-traffic scenarios.
|
|
matrix_media_repo_database_max_idle_connections: 5
|
|
|
|
# These users have full access to the administrative functions of the media repository.
|
|
# See https://github.com/turt2live/matrix-media-repo/blob/release-v1.2.8/docs/admin.md for information on what these people can do. They must belong to one of the
|
|
# configured homeservers above.

# Datastores are places where media should be persisted. This isn't dedicated for just uploads:
|
|
# thumbnails and other misc data is also stored in these places. The media repo, when looking
|
|
# for a datastore to use, will always use the smallest datastore first.
|
|
matrix_media_repo_datastores:

|
|
# Datastores can be split into many areas when handling uploads. Media is still de-duplicated
|
|
# across all datastores (local content which duplicates remote content will re-use the remote
|
|
# content's location). This option is useful if your datastore is becoming very large, or if
|
|
# you want faster storage for a particular kind of media.
|
|
#
|
|
# The kinds available are:
|
|
# thumbnails - Used to store thumbnails of media (local and remote).
|
|
# remote_media - Original copies of remote media (servers not configured by this repo).
|
|
# local_media - Original uploads for local media.
|
|
# archives - Archives of content (GDPR and similar requests).

|
|
# memory usage, set this to an empty string.

# The media repo does support an IPFS datastore, but only if the IPFS feature is enabled. If

|
|
# the moment and not recommended for general use.
|
|
#
|
|
# NOTE: Everything you upload to IPFS will be publicly accessible, even when the media repo
|
|
# puts authentication on the download endpoints. Only use this option for cases where you
|
|
# expect your media to be publicly accessible.
