Must be lower-case. # Options: ["trace","debug","info","warn","error","fatal"] # Default: "info" log-level: "info" # String. Application name to use internally. # Examples: ["My Application","gotosocial"] # Default: "gotosocial" application-name: "__APP__" # String. Hostname that this server will be reachable at. Defaults to localhost for local testing, # but you should *definitely* change this when running for real, or your server won't work at all. # DO NOT change this after your server has already run once, or you will break things! # Examples: ["gts.example.org","some.server.com"] # Default: "localhost" host: "__DOMAIN__" # String. Domain to use when federating profiles. This is useful when you want your server to be at # eg., "gts.example.org", but you want the domain on accounts to be "example.org" because it looks better # or is just shorter/easier to remember. # To make this setting work properly, you need to redirect requests at "example.org/.well-known/webfinger" # to "gts.example.org/.well-known/webfinger" so that GtS can handle them properly. # You should also redirect requests at "example.org/.well-known/nodeinfo" in the same way. # An empty string (ie., not set) means that the same value as 'host' will be used. # DO NOT change this after your server has already run once, or you will break things! # Examples: ["example.org","server.com"] # Default: "" account-domain: "" # String. Protocol to use for the server. Only change to http for local testing! # This should be the protocol part of the URI that your server is actually reachable on. So even if you're # running GoToSocial behind a reverse proxy that handles SSL certificates for you, instead of using built-in # letsencrypt, it should still be https. # Options: ["http","https"] # Default: "https" protocol: "http" # String. Address to bind the GoToSocial server to. # This can be an IPv4 address or an IPv6 address (surrounded in square brackets), or a hostname. # Default value will bind to all interfaces. # You probably won't need to change this unless you're setting GoToSocial up in some fancy way or # you have specific networking requirements. # Examples: ["0.0.0.0", "172.128.0.16", "localhost", "[::]", "[2001:db8::fed1]"] # Default: "0.0.0.0" bind-address: "0.0.0.0" # Int. Listen port for the GoToSocial webserver + API. If you're running behind a reverse proxy and/or in a docker, # container, just set this to whatever you like (or leave the default), and make sure it's forwarded properly. # If you are running with built-in letsencrypt enabled, and running GoToSocial directly on a host machine, you will # probably want to set this to 443 (standard https port), unless you have other services already using that port. # This *MUST NOT* be the same as the letsencrypt port specified below, unless letsencrypt is turned off. # Examples: [443, 6666, 8080] # Default: 8080 port: __PORT__ # Array of string. CIDRs or IP addresses of proxies that should be trusted when determining real client IP from behind a reverse proxy. # If you're running inside a Docker container behind Traefik or Nginx, for example, add the subnet of your docker network, # or the gateway of the docker network, and/or the address of the reverse proxy (if it's not running on the host network). # Example: ["127.0.0.1/32", "172.20.0.1"] # Default: ["127.0.0.1/32"] (localhost) trusted-proxies: - "127.0.0.1/32" ############################ ##### DATABASE CONFIG ###### ############################ # Config pertaining to the Gotosocial database connection # String. Database type. # Options: ["postgres","sqlite"] # Default: "postgres" db-type: "postgres" # String. Database address or parameters. # # For Postgres, this should be the address or socket at which the database can be reached. # # For Sqlite, this should be the path to your sqlite database file. Eg., /opt/gotosocial/sqlite.db. # If the file doesn't exist at the specified path, it will be created. # If just a filename is provided (no directory) then the database will be created in the same directory # as the GoToSocial binary. # If address is set to :memory: then an in-memory database will be used (no file). # WARNING: :memory: should NOT BE USED except for testing purposes. # # Examples: ["localhost","my.db.host","127.0.0.1","192.111.39.110",":memory:", "sqlite.db"] # Default: "" db-address: "127.0.0.1" # Int. Port for database connection. # Examples: [5432, 1234, 6969] # Default: 5432 db-port: 5432 # String. Username for the database connection. # Examples: ["mydbuser","postgres","gotosocial"] # Default: "" db-user: "__DB_USER__" # String. Password to use for the database connection # Examples: ["password123","verysafepassword","postgres"] # Default: "" db-password: "__DB_PWD__" # String. Name of the database to use within the provided database type. # Examples: ["mydb","postgres","gotosocial"] # Default: "gotosocial" db-database: "__DB_NAME__" # String. Disable, enable, or require SSL/TLS connection to the database. # If "disable" then no TLS connection will be attempted. # If "enable" then TLS will be tried, but the database certificate won't be checked (for self-signed certs). # If "require" then TLS will be required to make a connection, and a valid certificate must be presented. # Options: ["disable", "enable", "require"] # Default: "disable" db-tls-mode: "disable" # String. Path to a CA certificate on the host machine for db certificate validation. # If this is left empty, just the host certificates will be used. # If filled in, the certificate will be loaded and added to host certificates. # Examples: ["/path/to/some/cert.crt"] # Default: "" db-tls-ca-cert: "" ###################### ##### WEB CONFIG ##### ###################### # Config pertaining to templating and serving of web pages/email notifications and the like # String.

Whether or not letsencrypt should be enabled for the server. # If false, the rest of the settings here will be ignored. # If you serve GoToSocial behind a reverse proxy like nginx or traefik, leave this turned off. # If you don't, then turn it on so that you can use https. # Options: [true, false] # Default: false letsencrypt-enabled: false # Int.

Directory in which to store LetsEncrypt certificates. # It is a good move to make this a sub-path within your storage directory, as it makes # backup easier, but you might wish to move them elsewhere if they're also accessed by other services. # In any case, make sure GoToSocial has permissions to write to / read from this directory. # Examples: ["/home/gotosocial/storage/certs", "/acmecerts"] # Default: "/gotosocial/storage/certs" letsencrypt-cert-dir: "/gotosocial/storage/certs" # String.
