## Changing the way SSL certificates are retrieved
|
|
|
|
We've been using [acmetool](https://github.com/hlandau/acme) (with the [willwill/acme-docker](https://hub.docker.com/r/willwill/acme-docker/) Docker image) until now.
|
|
|
|
Due to the Docker image being deprecated, and things looking bleak for acmetool's support of the newer ACME v2 API endpoint, we've switched to using [certbot](https://certbot.eff.org/) (with the [certbot/certbot](https://hub.docker.com/r/certbot/certbot/) Docker image).
|
|
|
|
Simply re-running the playbook will retrieve new certificates (via certbot) for you.
|
|
To ensure you don't leave any old files behind, though, you'd better do this:
|
|
|
|
- `systemctl stop 'matrix*'`
|
|
- stop your custom webserver, if you're running one (only affects you if you've installed with `matrix_nginx_proxy_enabled: false`)
|
|
- `mv /matrix/ssl /matrix/ssl-acmetool-delete-later`
|
|
- re-run the playbook's [installation](docs/installing.md)
|
|
- possibly delete `/matrix/ssl-acmetool-delete-later`
|
|

## Matrix Corporal support
|
|
|
|
The playbook can now install and configure [matrix-corporal](https://github.com/devture/matrix-corporal) for you.
|
|
|
|
Additional details are available in [Setting up Matrix Corporal](docs/configuring-playbook-matrix-corporal.md).

## Matrix Synapse rate limit control variables
|
|
|
|
The following new variables can now be configured to control Matrix Synapse's rate-limiting (default values are shown below).
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
matrix_synapse_rc_messages_per_second: 0.2
|
|
matrix_synapse_rc_message_burst_count: 10.0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Shared Secret Auth support via matrix-synapse-shared-secret-auth
|
|
|
|
The playbook can now install and configure [matrix-synapse-shared-secret-auth](https://github.com/devture/matrix-synapse-shared-secret-auth) for you.
|
|
|
|
Additional details are available in [Setting up the Shared Secret Auth password provider module](docs/configuring-playbook-shared-secret-auth.md).
|

## REST auth support via matrix-synapse-rest-auth
|
|
|
|
The playbook can now install and configure [matrix-synapse-rest-auth](https://github.com/kamax-io/matrix-synapse-rest-auth) for you.
|
|
|
|
Additional details are available in [Setting up the REST authentication password provider module](docs/configuring-playbook-rest-auth.md).
|

|
|
## Compression improvements
|
|
|
|
Shifted Matrix Synapse compression from happening in the Matrix Synapse,
|
|
to happening in the nginx proxy that's in front of it.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, `riot-web` also gets compressed now (in the nginx proxy),
|
|
which drops the initial page load's size from 5.31MB to 1.86MB.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Disabling some unnecessary Synapse services
|
|
|
|
The following services are not necessary, so they have been disabled:
|
|
- on the federation port (8448): the `client` service
|
|
- on the http port (8008, exposed over 443): the old Angular `webclient` and the `federation` service
|
|
|
|
Federation runs only on the federation port (8448) now.
|
|
The Client APIs run only on the http port (8008) now.

## mxisd Identity Server support
|
|
|
|
The playbook now sets up an [mxisd](https://github.com/kamax-io/mxisd) Identity Server for you by default.
|
|
Additional details are available in [Adjusting mxisd Identity Server configuration](docs/configuring-playbook-mxisd.md).

|
## Email-sending support
|
|
|
|
The playbook now configures an email-sending service (postfix) by default.
|
|
Additional details are available in [Adjusting email-sending settings](docs/configuring-playbook-email.md).
|
|
|
|
With this, Matrix Synapse is able to send email notifications for missed messages, etc.
|
|
|

## (BC Break) Renaming playbook variables
|
|
|
|
The following playbook variables were renamed:
|
|
|
|
- from `matrix_max_upload_size_mb` to `matrix_synapse_max_upload_size_mb`
|
|
- from `matrix_max_log_file_size_mb` to `matrix_synapse_max_log_file_size_mb`
|
|
- from `matrix_max_log_files_count` to `matrix_synapse_max_log_files_count`
|
|
- from `docker_matrix_image` to `matrix_docker_image_synapse`
|
|
- from `docker_nginx_image` to `matrix_docker_image_nginx`
|
|
- from `docker_riot_image` to `matrix_docker_image_riot`
|
|
- from `docker_goofys_image` to `matrix_docker_image_goofys`
|
|
- from `docker_coturn_image` to `matrix_docker_image_coturn`
|
|
|
|
If you're overriding any of them in your `vars.yml` file, you'd need to change to the new names.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Renaming Ansible playbook tag
|
|
|
|
The command for executing the whole playbook has changed.
|
|
The `setup-main` tag got renamed to `setup-all`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Docker container linking
|
|
|
|
Changed the way the Docker containers are linked together. The ones that need to communicate with others operate in a `matrix` network now and not in the default bridge network.
