# Synapse Docker
|
|
|

This Docker image will run Synapse as a single process. It does not provide a database

|
|
This Docker image will run Synapse as a single process. By default it uses a
|
|
|
|
|
sqlite database; for production use you should connect it to a separate
|
|
|
|
|
postgres database.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The image also does *not* provide a TURN server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Run
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We do not currently offer a `latest` image, as this has somewhat undefined semantics.
|
|
|
|
|
We instead release only tagged versions so upgrading between releases is entirely
|
|
|
|
|
within your control.

|

|
|
|
|
### Using docker-compose (easier)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This image is designed to run either with an automatically generated configuration
|
|
|
|
|
file or with a custom configuration that requires manual editing.

An easy way to make use of this image is via docker-compose. See the

## TLS certificates
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Synapse requires a valid TLS certificate. You can do one of the following:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Provide your own certificate and key (as
|
|
|
|
|
`${DATA_PATH}/${SYNAPSE_SERVER_NAME}.crt` and
|
|
|
|
|
`${DATA_PATH}/${SYNAPSE_SERVER_NAME}.key`, or elsewhere by providing an
|
|
|
|
|
entire config as `${SYNAPSE_CONFIG_PATH}`).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Use a reverse proxy to terminate incoming TLS, and forward the plain http
|
|
|
|
|
traffic to port 8008 in the container. In this case you should set `-e
|
|
|
|
|
SYNAPSE_NO_TLS=1`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Use the ACME (Let's Encrypt) support built into Synapse. This requires
|
|
|
|
|
`${SYNAPSE_SERVER_NAME}` port 80 to be forwarded to port 8009 in the
|
|
|
|
|
container, for example with `-p 80:8009`. To enable it in the docker
|
|
|
|
|
container, set `-e SYNAPSE_ACME=1`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you don't do any of these, Synapse will fail to start with an error similar to:

## Build
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build the docker image with the `docker build` command from the root of the synapse repository.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
docker build -t docker.io/matrixdotorg/synapse . -f docker/Dockerfile
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `-t` option sets the image tag. Official images are tagged `matrixdotorg/synapse:<version>` where `<version>` is the same as the release tag in the synapse git repository.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You may have a local Python wheel cache available, in which case copy the relevant
|
|
|
|
|
packages in the ``cache/`` directory at the root of the project.
|
|
|
|
|
* ``SYNAPSE_SMTP_PORT``, TCP port for accessing the mail server [default
|
|
|
|
|
``25``].
|
|
|
|
|
* ``SYNAPSE_SMTP_USER``, username for authenticating against the mail server if
|
|
|
|
|
any.
|
|
|
|
|
* ``SYNAPSE_SMTP_PASSWORD``, password for authenticating against the mail
|
|
|
|
|
server if any.
