* Replace installation command shortcut for the "just" program with the most conservative raw ansible-playbook command This commit replaces installation command shortcut ("recipe") for the "just" program with the raw ansible-playbook command, so that the shortcut will be added to it later. The command is so conservative that failure of the command will mean something is clearly broken.

The explanation is based on docs/playbook-tags.md Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Update raw ansible-playbook command to have it do what "just install-all" or "just setup-all" does Since "just install-all" or "just setup-all" invokes "ensure-matrix-users-created" as well, it needs adding to the raw ansible-playbook command.

"just install-all" and "just setup-all" run "ensure-matrix-users-created" tag as well, therefore they need to be replaced with "run-tags" recipes to skip "ensure-matrix-users-created" Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Update docs/configuring-playbook-etherpad.md: add ensure-matrix-users-created to the raw ansible-playbook Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org> * Add description about "ensure-matrix-users-created" and create a list with description about shortcut commands with "just" This commit also fixes list item capitalization and punctuation.

Setting up synapse-auto-compressor (optional)
The playbook can install and configure synapse_auto_compressor for you.
It's a CLI tool that automatically compresses Synapse's state_groups
database table in the background.
See the project's documentation to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
Adjusting the playbook configuration
Add the following configuration to your inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml
file:
matrix_synapse_auto_compressor_enabled: true
Installing
After configuring the playbook, run it with playbook tags as below:
ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all,start
The shortcut commands with just
program are also available: just run-tags install-all,start
or just run-tags setup-all,start
just run-tags install-all,start
is useful for maintaining your setup quickly when its components remain unchanged. If you adjust your vars.yml
to remove other components, you'd need to run just run-tags setup-all,start
, or these components will still remain installed. For more information about just
shortcuts, take a look at this page: Running just
commands
Usage
After installation, synapse_auto_compressor
will run automatically every day at 00:00:00
(as defined in matrix_synapse_auto_compressor_calendar
by default).
Manually start the tool
For testing your setup it can be helpful to not wait until 00:00. If you want to run the tool immediately, log onto the server and run systemctl start matrix-synapse-auto-compressor
. Running this command will not return control to your terminal until the compression run is done, which may take a long time. Consider using tmux if your SSH connection is unstable.
