Run-Your-Own Firefox Sync Server
|
||
|
================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is an all-in-one package for running a self-hosted Firefox Sync server.
|
||
|
If bundles the "tokenserver" project for authentication and the "syncstorage"
|
||
|
project for storage, produce a single stand-alone webapp.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Complete installation instructions are available at:
|
||
|
|
||
|
https://docs.services.mozilla.com/howtos/run-sync-1.5.html
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Quickstart
|
||
|
----------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The Sync Server software runs using **python 2.6** or later, and the build
|
||
|
process requires **make** and **virtualenv**. You will need to have the
|
||
|
following packages (or similar, depending on your operating system) installed:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- python2.7
|
||
|
- python2.7-dev
|
||
|
- python-virtualenv
|
||
|
- make
|
||
|
|
||
|
Take a checkout of this repository, then run "make build" to pull in the
|
||
|
necessary python package dependencies::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ git clone https://github.com/mozilla-services/syncserver
|
||
|
$ cd syncserver
|
||
|
$ make build
|
||
|
|
||
|
To sanity-check that things got installed correctly, do the following::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ make test
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now you can run the server::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ make serve
|
||
|
|
||
|
This should start a server on http://localhost:5000/.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now go into Firefox's `about:config` page, search for a setting named
|
||
|
"tokenServerURI", and change it to point to your server::
|
||
|
|
||
|
services.sync.tokenServerURI: http://localhost:5000/token/1.0/sync/1.5
|
||
|
|
||
|
Firefox should now sync against your local server rather than the default
|
||
|
Mozilla-hosted servers.
|
||
|
|
||

|
Customization
|
||
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
All customization of the server can be done by editing the file
|
||
|
"syncserver.ini", which contains lots of comments to help you on
|
||
|
your way. Things you might like to change include:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* The client-visible hostname for your server. Edit the "public_url"
|
||
|
key under the [syncstorage] section.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* The database in which to store sync data. Edit the "sqluri" setting
|
||
|
under the [syncstorage] section.
