# Matrix (An open network for secure, decentralized communication) server setup using Ansible and Docker
## 🎯 Purpose
2017-07-31 20:07:30 +00:00
2021-01-24 08:04:30 +00:00
This [Ansible](https://www.ansible.com/) playbook is meant to help you run your own [Matrix](http://matrix.org/) homeserver, along with the [various services](#supported-services) related to that.
2017-07-31 20:07:30 +00:00
That is, it lets you join the Matrix network using your own `@<username>:example.com` identifier, all hosted on your own server (see [prerequisites](docs/prerequisites.md)).
2021-01-24 08:04:30 +00:00
We run all [supported services](#-supported-services) in [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) containers (see [the container images we use](docs/container-images.md)), which lets us have a predictable and up-to-date setup, across multiple supported distros (see [prerequisites](docs/prerequisites.md)) and [architectures](docs/alternative-architectures.md) (x86/amd64 being recommended).
2021-01-24 08:04:30 +00:00
Installation (upgrades) and some maintenance tasks are automated using [Ansible](https://www.ansible.com/) (see [our Ansible guide](docs/ansible.md)).
2021-05-17 13:10:54 +00:00
## ☁ Self-hosting or Managed / SaaS
2023-02-26 13:54:30 +00:00
This Ansible playbook tries to make self-hosting and maintaining a Matrix server fairly easy (see [Getting started](#-getting-started)). Still, running any service smoothly requires knowledge, time and effort.
2023-02-26 13:54:30 +00:00
If you like the [FOSS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_and_open-source_software) spirit of this Ansible playbook, but prefer to put the responsibility on someone else, you can also [get a managed Matrix server from etke.cc](https://etke.cc?utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=mdad) (both hosting and on-premises) - a service built on top of this Ansible playbook but with [additional components](https://etke.cc/help/extras/?utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=mdad) and [services](https://etke.cc/services/?utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=mdad) which all help you run a Matrix server with ease. Be advised that etke.cc operates on a subscription-based approach and there is no "just set up my server once and be done with it" option.

## 🚀 Getting started
We have detailed documentation in the [docs/](./docs) directory - see the Table of Contents in the [documentation README](./docs/README.md).
While the [list of supported services](#-supported-services) and documentation is very extensive, you don't need to read through everything. We recommend:
- Starting with the basics. You can always add/remove or tweak services later on.
- Following our guided installation, starting with the [Prerequisites](./docs/prerequisites.md) documentation page

Add "Quick start" guide (#3801) * Add docs/quick-start.md Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Add description about keeping the playbook and services up-to-date Also: move descriptions about difference between the playbook tags (setup-all and install-all) and about the just "recipe" from installing.md to maintenance-upgrading-services.md Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Replace <your-username> with YOUR_USERNAME_HERE This is a common expression and should avoid misunderstanding that `<` and `>` would need to be included Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Replace <your-password> with YOUR_PASSWORD_HERE Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Change the link to 'Quick start' on the breadcrumbs from README.md to quick-start.md Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Add a link to quick-start.md on the "Getting started" section Since I am not quite sure whether the link to prerequisites.md should be replaced in favor of this link, this commit leaves it as it is for now. Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Add a link to quick-start.md on docs/README.md Since I am not quite sure whether the link to prerequisites.md should be replaced in favor of this link, this commit leaves it as it is for now. Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Add note about using "example.com" as an example domain Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Remove backticks from command examples to register a user Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Apply suggestions from code review Co-authored-by: Slavi Pantaleev <slavi@devture.com> * Improve notes for instruction to create a user account Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Add details about delegation to installing.md and quick-start.md Some information is omitted on quick-start.md in favor of installing.md to keep the quick start guide simple. Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Update docs/quick-start.md: add the breadcrumb header Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Edit docs/quick-start.md: run the setup command with install-all by default Refer docs/maintenance-upgrading-services.md Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Revert "Update docs/quick-start.md: add the breadcrumb header" This reverts commit 9a6e1cf14c7638953fc8fbb8b487ea0afd0a41ad. As the quick start guide is standalone. * Update docs/quick-start.md: add headers inside the install section These headers should make it perfectly clear that there are two steps to be done to install with the playbook Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Update quick-start.md * Update docs/registering-users.md: notes for manual user registeration Copy the same notes from quick-start.md Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Reword some things in quick start * Add alternative to `just roles` * Update docs/configuring-dns.md: sync with docs/quick-start.md Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Update docs/quick-start.md: add a link to docs/registering-users.md for an instruction to add user accounts Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Update docs/registering-users.md and docs/updating-users-passwords.md: remove "your" from username and password placeholders These documentations, unlike docs/installing.md and docs/quick-start.md, describe how to handle users (registering them or changing their passwords), some of whom are yours, while others are not. Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Update docs/installing.md: add "your" to make it clear that it is "your" account that is going to be created Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Update docs/installing.md and docs/quick-start.md: mention "make roles" This commit adds mentions to "make roles" and a note about the preference of ansible-playbook commands over the just "recipes". quick-start.md intends to be referred by those who have never used the playbook to set up a server, so it is safer to regard that it is not clear to them what exactly the just "recipes" are made of, ie. it takes some time and experience until someone understands simplicity of them. For beginners, I believe that we should prefer the basics over simplicity, from the educational point of view. If someone feels tired of using the same command repetitively, then the person will have been already well accustomed to the way how the playbook works and how the server is supposed to be maintained, and the person is "qualified" to use the just "recipes", and should be able to use them with confidence, distinguishing the playbook tags from the "recipes", for example, from "just install-all" and "ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=install-all". Such level of familiarity and experience should not be expected on the quick start guide. Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Update instructions to update Ansible roles Also: move the detailed explanation about "just roles" from installing.md to maintenance-upgrading-services.md TBD: create a dedicated documentation for the "just" program and the concept of its "recipe" (shortcut of commands) Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Add a note about cases to create multiple accounts/users Since one of the quick start guide's goals is to set up an own user account, this commit adds the note about creating multiple accounts/users to installing.md and registering-users.md only. It should be fine as registering-users.md is linked from quick-start.md Also: - On installing.md and quick-start.md, change instruction from what encourages to select "admin=yes" or "admin=no" to what encourages to use "admin=yes", since your user account will be the sole user on the server, as long as you set up the server by following the documentation - Remove the link to registering-users.md from quick-start.md as the documentation is already linked above, under the header of the section - Sync docs/installing.md with other documentation Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Remove a line about setting "admin=yes" to reduce the amount of information Because quick-start.md is getting longer with much information, it removes the note in favor of the linked registering-users.md documentation. The note is available on installing.md as well, and details about adding user accounts for other people can (and should) be checked on those documentations. Also, this commit edits lines above these notes to make it clear that your user account will be an administrator of the server. With this commit, the amount of the information about adding user accounts will be: registering-users.md > installing.md > quick-start.md Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Fix a broken anchor link on docs/installing.md Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Replace repetitive information about upgrading with an anchor link to docs/maintenance-upgrading-services.md Because details to update/upgrade the Matrix services is not necessary for quick start and the amount of information should be reduced from the viewpoint of maintainability, this commit removes details to update/upgrade from quick-start.md Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Update docs/quick-start.md: add a note about keeping it tidy and simple Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Update docs/maintenance-checking-services.md and docs/quick-start.md: add instruction to use federation tester against the base domain Per Slavi's suggestion. Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Update docs/installing.md and docs/quick-start.md: replace commands to finalize the installation Per Slavi's suggestion. Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Clarify install-matrix-static-files to avoid confusion with install-all; Minor consistency improvements --------- Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> Co-authored-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> Co-authored-by: Slavi Pantaleev <slavi@devture.com>

If you have never configured Matrix services, follow the [**quick start**](./docs/quick-start.md) guide to set up minimum core services on your server.
## ✔ Supported services
2017-07-31 20:07:30 +00:00
Using this playbook, you can get the following list of services configured on your server. Basically, this playbook aims to get you up-and-running with all the necessities around Matrix, without you having to do anything else.
2021-05-17 13:10:54 +00:00
**Notes**:
2021-05-17 13:10:54 +00:00
- The list below 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.
- Deprecated or unmaintained services are not listed. You can find documentations for them [here](docs/configuring-playbook.md#deprecated--unmaintained--removed-services).

You may also be interested in [mash-playbook](https://github.com/mother-of-all-self-hosting/mash-playbook) - another Ansible playbook for self-hosting non-Matrix services (see its [List of supported services](https://github.com/mother-of-all-self-hosting/mash-playbook/blob/main/docs/supported-services.md)).
2023-02-26 14:21:50 +00:00
mash-playbook also makes use of [Traefik](./docs/configuring-playbook-traefik.md) as its reverse-proxy, so with minor [interoperability adjustments](https://github.com/mother-of-all-self-hosting/mash-playbook/blob/main/docs/interoperability.md), you can make matrix-docker-ansible-deploy and mash-playbook co-exist and host Matrix and non-Matrix services on the same server.
