Plugin Development
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
|
||||
SamplePlugin.php
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Each plugin requires a main class to interact with the GNU social system.
|
||||
|
||||
The main class usually extends the Plugin class that comes with GNU social.
|
||||
|
||||
The class has standard-named methods that will be called when certain events
|
||||
happen in the code base. These methods have names like 'onX' where X is an
|
||||
event name (see EVENTS.txt for the list of available events). Event handlers
|
||||
have pre-defined arguments, based on which event they're handling. A typical
|
||||
event handler:
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
function onSomeEvent($paramA, &$paramB)
|
||||
{
|
||||
if ($paramA == 'jed') {
|
||||
throw new Exception(sprintf(_m("Invalid parameter %s"), $paramA));
|
||||
}
|
||||
$paramB = 'spock';
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Event Handlers
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Event handlers must return a Boolean value.
|
||||
|
||||
If they return false, all other event handlers for this event (in other plug-in)
|
||||
will be skipped, and in some cases the default processing for that event would
|
||||
be skipped. This is great for replacing the default action of an event.
|
||||
|
||||
If the handler returns true, processing of other event handlers and the default
|
||||
processing will continue. This is great for extending existing functionality.
|
||||
|
||||
If the handler throws an exception, processing will stop, and the exception's
|
||||
error will be shown to the user.
|
||||
|
||||
Installation
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
To install a plugin (like this one), site admins add the following code to their
|
||||
config.php file:
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
addPlugin('Sample');
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Plugins must be installed in one of the following directories:
|
||||
|
||||
* local/plugins/{$pluginclass}.php
|
||||
* local/plugins/{$name}/{$pluginclass}.php
|
||||
* local/{$pluginclass}.php
|
||||
* local/{$name}/{$pluginclass}.php
|
||||
* plugins/{$pluginclass}.php
|
||||
* plugins/{$name}/{$pluginclass}.php
|
||||
|
||||
Here, `{$name}` is the name of the plugin, like 'Sample', and `{$pluginclass}`
|
||||
is the name of the main class, like 'SamplePlugin'. Plugins that are part of
|
||||
the main GNU social distribution go in 'plugins' and third-party or local ones
|
||||
go in 'local'.
|
||||
|
||||
Simple plugins can be implemented as a single module. Others are more complex
|
||||
and require additional modules; these should use their own directory, like
|
||||
'local/plugins/{$name}/'. All files related to the plugin, including images,
|
||||
JavaScript, CSS, external libraries or PHP modules should go in the plugin
|
||||
directory.
|
||||
|
||||
Plugin Configuration
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Plugins are configured using public instance attributes. To set their values,
|
||||
site administrators use this syntax:
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
addPlugin('Sample', ('attr1' => 'foo', 'attr2' => 'bar'));
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The same plugin class can be initialized multiple times with different arguments:
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
addPlugin('EmailNotify', array('sendTo' => 'evan@status.net'));
|
||||
addPlugin('EmailNotify', array('sendTo' => 'brionv@status.net'));
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
class SamplePlugin extends Plugin
|
||||
{
|
||||
public $attr1 = null;
|
||||
public $attr2 = null;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Initialization
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Plugins overload this method to do any initialization they need, like connecting
|
||||
to remote servers or creating paths or so on. @return boolean hook value; true
|
||||
means continue processing, false means stop.
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
function initialize()
|
||||
{
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Clean Up
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Plugins overload this method to do any cleanup they need, like disconnecting from
|
||||
remote servers or deleting temp files or so on.
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
function cleanup()
|
||||
{
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Database schema setup
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Plugins can add their own tables to the GNU social database. Plugins should use
|
||||
GNU social's schema interface to add or delete tables. The ensureTable() method
|
||||
provides an easy way to ensure a table's structure and availability.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the schema is checked every time GNU social is run (say, when a Web
|
||||
page is hit). Admins can configure their systems to only check the schema when
|
||||
the checkschema.php script is run, greatly improving performance. However, they
|
||||
need to remember to run that script after installing or upgrading a plugin!
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
function onCheckSchema()
|
||||
{
|
||||
$schema = Schema::get();
|
||||
|
||||
// '''For storing user-submitted flags on profiles'''
|
||||
|
||||
$schema->ensureTable('user_greeting_count',
|
||||
array(new ColumnDef('user_id', 'integer', null,
|
||||
true, 'PRI'),
|
||||
new ColumnDef('greeting_count', 'integer')));
|
||||
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Load related modules when needed
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Most non-trivial plugins will require extra modules to do their work. Typically
|
||||
these include data classes, action classes, widget classes, or external libraries.
|
||||
|
||||
This method receives a class name and loads the PHP file related to that class.
|
||||
By tradition, action classes typically have files named for the action, all
|
||||
lower-case. Data classes are in files with the data class name, initial letter
|
||||
capitalized.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that this method will be called for *all* overloaded classes, not just ones
|
||||
in this plugin! So, make sure to return true by default to let other plugins,
|
||||
and the core code, get a chance.
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
function onAutoload($cls)
|
||||
{
|
||||
$dir = dirname(__FILE__);
|
||||
|
||||
switch ($cls)
|
||||
{
|
||||
case 'HelloAction':
|
||||
include_once $dir . '/' . strtolower(mb_substr($cls, 0, -6)) . '.php';
|
||||
return false;
|
||||
case 'User_greeting_count':
|
||||
include_once $dir . '/'.$cls.'.php';
|
||||
return false;
|
||||
default:
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Map URLs to actions
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
This event handler lets the plugin map URLs on the site to actions (and thus an
|
||||
action handler class). Note that the action handler class for an action will be
|
||||
named 'FoobarAction', where action = 'foobar'. The class must be loaded in the
|
||||
onAutoload() method.
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
function onRouterInitialized($m)
|
||||
{
|
||||
$m->connect('main/hello',
|
||||
array('action' => 'hello'));
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Modify the default menu to link to our custom action
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Using event handlers, it's possible to modify the default UI for pages almost
|
||||
without limit. In this method, we add a menu item to the default primary menu
|
||||
for the interface to link to our action.
|
||||
|
||||
Action Class
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The Action class provides a rich set of events to hook, as well as output methods.
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
function onEndPrimaryNav($action)
|
||||
{
|
||||
// '''common_local_url()''' gets the correct URL for the action name we provide
|
||||
|
||||
$action->menuItem(common_local_url('hello'),
|
||||
_m('Hello'), _m('A warm greeting'), false, 'nav_hello');
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
function onPluginVersion(&$versions)
|
||||
{
|
||||
$versions[] = array('name' => 'Sample',
|
||||
'version' => STATUSNET_VERSION,
|
||||
'author' => 'Brion Vibber, Evan Prodromou',
|
||||
'homepage' => 'http://example.org/plugin',
|
||||
'rawdescription' =>
|
||||
_m('A sample plugin to show basics of development for new hackers.'));
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
hello.php
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
This section is taken directly from the 'hello.php'. ( plugins/Sample/hello.php )
|
||||
|
||||
Give a warm greeting to our friendly user.
|
||||
|
||||
This sample action shows some basic ways of doing output in an action class.
|
||||
|
||||
Action classes have several output methods that they override from the parent class.
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
class HelloAction extends Action
|
||||
{
|
||||
var $user = null;
|
||||
var $gc = null;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Take arguments for running
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
This method is called first, and it lets the action class get all its arguments
|
||||
and validate them. It's also the time to fetch any relevant data from the database.
|
||||
|
||||
Action classes should run parent::prepare(array $args = []) as the first line
|
||||
of this method to make sure the default argument-processing happens.
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
function prepare(array $args = [])
|
||||
{
|
||||
parent::prepare($args);
|
||||
|
||||
$this->user = common_current_user();
|
||||
|
||||
if (!empty($this->user)) {
|
||||
$this->gc = User_greeting_count::inc($this->user->id);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Handle request
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
This is the main method for handling a request. Note that most preparation
|
||||
should be done in the prepare() method; by the time handle() is called the
|
||||
action should be more or less ready to go.
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
function handle()
|
||||
{
|
||||
parent::handle();
|
||||
|
||||
$this->showPage();
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Title of this page
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Override this method to show a custom title.
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
function title()
|
||||
{
|
||||
if (empty($this->user)) {
|
||||
return _m('Hello');
|
||||
} else {
|
||||
return sprintf(_m('Hello, %s'), $this->user->nickname);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Show content in the content area
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The default GNU social page has a lot of decorations: menus, logos, tabs, all
|
||||
that jazz. This method is used to show content in the content area of the
|
||||
page; it's the main thing you want to overload. This method also demonstrates
|
||||
use of a plural localized string.
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
function showContent()
|
||||
{
|
||||
if (empty($this->user)) {
|
||||
$this->element('p', array('class' => 'greeting'),
|
||||
_m('Hello, stranger!'));
|
||||
} else {
|
||||
$this->element('p', array('class' => 'greeting'),
|
||||
sprintf(_m('Hello, %s'), $this->user->nickname));
|
||||
$this->element('p', array('class' => 'greeting_count'),
|
||||
sprintf(_m('I have greeted you %d time.',
|
||||
'I have greeted you %d times.',
|
||||
$this->gc->greeting_count),
|
||||
$this->gc->greeting_count));
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Return true if read only.
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Some actions only read from the database; others read and write. The simple
|
||||
database load-balancer built into GNU social will direct read-only actions to
|
||||
database mirrors (if they are configured) and read-write actions to the master database.
|
||||
|
||||
This defaults to false to avoid data integrity issues, but you should make sure
|
||||
to overload it for performance gains.
|
||||
|
||||
```php
|
||||
function isReadOnly($args)
|
||||
{
|
||||
return false;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```

Configuration options
|
||||
=====================
|
||||
|
||||
The main configuration file for StatusNet (excepting configurations for
|
||||
dependency software) is config.php in your StatusNet directory. If you
|
||||
edit any other file in the directory, like lib/default.php (where most
|
||||
of the defaults are defined), you will lose your configuration options
|
||||
in any upgrade, and you will wish that you had been more careful.
|
||||
|
||||
Starting with version 0.9.0, a Web based configuration panel has been
|
||||
added to StatusNet. The preferred method for changing config options is
|
||||
to use this panel.
|
||||
|
||||
A command-line script, setconfig.php, can be used to set individual
|
||||
configuration options. It's in the scripts/ directory.
|
||||
|
||||
Starting with version 0.7.1, you can put config files in the
|
||||
/etc/statusnet/ directory on your server, if it exists. Config files
|
||||
will be included in this order:
|
||||
|
||||
* /etc/statusnet/statusnet.php - server-wide config
|
||||
* /etc/statusnet/<servername>.php - for a virtual host
|
||||
* /etc/statusnet/<servername>_<pathname>.php - for a path
|
||||
* INSTALLDIR/config.php - for a particular implementation
|
||||
|
||||
Almost all configuration options are made through a two-dimensional
|
||||
associative array, cleverly named $config. A typical configuration
|
||||
line will be:
|
||||
|
||||
$config['section']['option'] = value;
|
||||
|
||||
For brevity, the following documentation describes each section and
|
||||
option.
|
||||
|
||||
site
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
This section is a catch-all for site-wide variables.
|
||||
|
||||
name: the name of your site, like 'YourCompany Microblog'.
|
||||
server: the server part of your site's URLs, like 'example.net'.
|
||||
path: The path part of your site's URLs, like 'statusnet' or ''
|
||||
(installed in root).
|
||||
fancy: whether or not your site uses fancy URLs (see Fancy URLs
|
||||
section above). Default is false.
|
||||
logfile: full path to a file for StatusNet to save logging
|
||||
information to. You may want to use this if you don't have
|
||||
access to syslog.
|
||||
logdebug: whether to log additional debug info like backtraces on
|
||||
hard errors. Default false.
|
||||
locale_path: full path to the directory for locale data. Unless you
|
||||
store all your locale data in one place, you probably
|
||||
don't need to use this.
|
||||
language: default language for your site. Defaults to US English.
|
||||
Note that this is overridden if a user is logged in and has
|
||||
selected a different language. It is also overridden if the
|
||||
user is NOT logged in, but their browser requests a different
|
||||
langauge. Since pretty much everybody's browser requests a
|
||||
language, that means that changing this setting has little or
|
||||
no effect in practice.
|
||||
languages: A list of languages supported on your site. Typically you'd
|
||||
only change this if you wanted to disable support for one
|
||||
or another language:
|
||||
"unset($config['site']['languages']['de'])" will disable
|
||||
support for German.
|
||||
theme: Theme for your site (see Theme section). Two themes are
|
||||
provided by default: 'default' and 'stoica' (the one used by
|
||||
Identi.ca). It's appreciated if you don't use the 'stoica' theme
|
||||
except as the basis for your own.
|
||||
email: contact email address for your site. By default, it's extracted
|
||||
from your Web server environment; you may want to customize it.
|
||||
broughtbyurl: name of an organization or individual who provides the
|
||||
service. Each page will include a link to this name in the
|
||||
footer. A good way to link to the blog, forum, wiki,
|
||||
corporate portal, or whoever is making the service available.
|
||||
broughtby: text used for the "brought by" link.
|
||||
timezone: default timezone for message display. Users can set their
|
||||
own time zone. Defaults to 'UTC', which is a pretty good default.
|
||||
closed: If set to 'true', will disallow registration on your site.
|
||||
This is a cheap way to restrict accounts to only one
|
||||
individual or group; just register the accounts you want on
|
||||
the service, *then* set this variable to 'true'.
|
||||
inviteonly: If set to 'true', will only allow registration if the user
|
||||
was invited by an existing user.
|
||||
private: If set to 'true', anonymous users will be redirected to the
|
||||
'login' page. Also, API methods that normally require no
|
||||
authentication will require it. Note that this does not turn
|
||||
off registration; use 'closed' or 'inviteonly' for the
|
||||
behaviour you want.
|
||||
notice: A plain string that will appear on every page. A good place
|
||||
to put introductory information about your service, or info about
|
||||
upgrades and outages, or other community info. Any HTML will
|
||||
be escaped.
|
||||
logo: URL of an image file to use as the logo for the site. Overrides
|
||||
the logo in the theme, if any.
|
||||
ssllogo: URL of an image file to use as the logo on SSL pages. If unset,
|
||||
theme logo is used instead.
|
||||
ssl: Whether to use SSL and https:// URLs for some or all pages.
|
||||
Possible values are 'always' (use it for all pages), 'never'
|
||||
(don't use it for any pages), or 'sometimes' (use it for
|
||||
sensitive pages that include passwords like login and registration,
|
||||
but not for regular pages). Default to 'never'.
|
||||
sslproxy: Whether to force GNUsocial to think it is HTTPS when the
|
||||
server gives no such information. I.e. when you're using a reverse
|
||||
proxy that adds the encryption layer but the webserver that runs PHP
|
||||
isn't configured with a key and certificate.
|
||||
sslserver: use an alternate server name for SSL URLs, like
|
||||
'secure.example.org'. You should be careful to set cookie
|
||||
parameters correctly so that both the SSL server and the
|
||||
"normal" server can access the session cookie and
|
||||
preferably other cookies as well.
|
||||
shorturllength: ignored. See 'url' section below.
|
||||
dupelimit: minimum time allowed for one person to say the same thing
|
||||
twice. Default 60s. Anything lower is considered a user
|
||||
or UI error.
|
||||
textlimit: default max size for texts in the site. Defaults to 0 (no limit).
|
||||
Can be fine-tuned for notices, messages, profile bios and group descriptions.
|
||||
|
||||
db
|
||||
--
|
||||
|
||||
This section is a reference to the configuration options for
|
||||
DB_DataObject (see
|
||||
<http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.database.db-dataobject.intro-configuration.php>).
|
||||
The ones that you may want to set are listed below for clarity.
|
||||
|
||||
database: a DSN (Data Source Name) for your StatusNet database. This is
|
||||
in the format 'protocol://username:password@hostname/databasename',
|
||||
where 'protocol' is 'mysql' or 'mysqli' (or possibly 'postgresql', if you
|
||||
really know what you're doing), 'username' is the username,
|
||||
'password' is the password, and etc.
|
||||
ini_yourdbname: if your database is not named 'statusnet', you'll need
|
||||
to set this to point to the location of the
|
||||
statusnet.ini file. Note that the real name of your database
|
||||
should go in there, not literally 'yourdbname'.
|
||||
db_driver: You can try changing this to 'MDB2' to use the other driver
|
||||
type for DB_DataObject, but note that it breaks the OpenID
|
||||
libraries, which only support PEAR::DB.
|
||||
debug: On a database error, you may get a message saying to set this
|
||||
value to 5 to see debug messages in the browser. This breaks
|
||||
just about all pages, and will also expose the username and
|
||||
password
|
||||
quote_identifiers: Set this to true if you're using postgresql.
|
||||
type: either 'mysql' or 'postgresql' (used for some bits of
|
||||
database-type-specific SQL in the code). Defaults to mysql.
|
||||
mirror: you can set this to an array of DSNs, like the above
|
||||
'database' value. If it's set, certain read-only actions will
|
||||
use a random value out of this array for the database, rather
|
||||
than the one in 'database' (actually, 'database' is overwritten).
|
||||
You can offload a busy DB server by setting up MySQL replication
|
||||
and adding the slaves to this array. Note that if you want some
|
||||
requests to go to the 'database' (master) server, you'll need
|
||||
to include it in this array, too.
|
||||
utf8: whether to talk to the database in UTF-8 mode. This is the default
|
||||
with new installations, but older sites may want to turn it off
|
||||
until they get their databases fixed up. See "UTF-8 database"
|
||||
above for details.
|
||||
schemacheck: when to let plugins check the database schema to add
|
||||
tables or update them. Values can be 'runtime' (default)
|
||||
or 'script'. 'runtime' can be costly (plugins check the
|
||||
schema on every hit, adding potentially several db
|
||||
queries, some quite long), but not everyone knows how to
|
||||
run a script. If you can, set this to 'script' and run
|
||||
scripts/checkschema.php whenever you install or upgrade a
|
||||
plugin.
|
||||
|
||||
syslog
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
By default, StatusNet sites log error messages to the syslog facility.
|
||||
(You can override this using the 'logfile' parameter described above).
|
||||
|
||||
appname: The name that StatusNet uses to log messages. By default it's
|
||||
"statusnet", but if you have more than one installation on the
|
||||
server, you may want to change the name for each instance so
|
||||
you can track log messages more easily.
|
||||
priority: level to log at. Currently ignored.
|
||||
facility: what syslog facility to used. Defaults to LOG_USER, only
|
||||
reset if you know what syslog is and have a good reason
|
||||
to change it.
|
||||
|
||||
queue
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
You can configure the software to queue time-consuming tasks, like
|
||||
sending out SMS email or XMPP messages, for off-line processing. See
|
||||
'Queues and daemons' above for how to set this up.
|
||||
|
||||
enabled: Whether to uses queues. Defaults to false.
|
||||
daemon: Wather to use queuedaemon. Defaults to false, which means
|
||||
you'll use OpportunisticQM plugin.
|
||||
subsystem: Which kind of queueserver to use. Values include "db" for
|
||||
our hacked-together database queuing (no other server
|
||||
required) and "stomp" for a stomp server.
|
||||
stomp_server: "broker URI" for stomp server. Something like
|
||||
"tcp://hostname:61613". More complicated ones are
|
||||
possible; see your stomp server's documentation for
|
||||
details.
|
||||
queue_basename: a root name to use for queues (stomp only). Typically
|
||||
something like '/queue/sitename/' makes sense. If running
|
||||
multiple instances on the same server, make sure that
|
||||
either this setting or $config['site']['nickname'] are
|
||||
unique for each site to keep them separate.
|
||||
|
||||
stomp_username: username for connecting to the stomp server; defaults
|
||||
to null.
|
||||
stomp_password: password for connecting to the stomp server; defaults
|
||||
to null.
|
||||
|
||||
stomp_persistent: keep items across queue server restart, if enabled.
|
||||
Under ActiveMQ, the server configuration determines if and how
|
||||
persistent storage is actually saved.
|
||||
|
||||
If using a message queue server other than ActiveMQ, you may
|
||||
need to disable this if it does not support persistence.
|
||||
|
||||
stomp_transactions: use transactions to aid in error detection.
|
||||
A broken transaction will be seen quickly, allowing a message
|
||||
to be redelivered immediately if a daemon crashes.
|
||||
|
||||
If using a message queue server other than ActiveMQ, you may
|
||||
need to disable this if it does not support transactions.
|
||||
|
||||
stomp_acks: send acknowledgements to aid in flow control.
|
||||
An acknowledgement of successful processing tells the server
|
||||
we're ready for more and can help keep things moving smoothly.
|
||||
|
||||
This should *not* be turned off when running with ActiveMQ, but
|
||||
if using another message queue server that does not support
|
||||
acknowledgements you might need to disable this.
|
||||
|
||||
softlimit: an absolute or relative "soft memory limit"; daemons will
|
||||
restart themselves gracefully when they find they've hit
|
||||
this amount of memory usage. Defaults to 90% of PHP's global
|
||||
memory_limit setting.
|
||||
|
||||
inboxes: delivery of messages to receiver's inboxes can be delayed to
|
||||
queue time for best interactive performance on the sender.
|
||||
This may however be annoyingly slow when using the DB queues,
|
||||
so you can set this to false if it's causing trouble.
|
||||
|
||||
breakout: for stomp, individual queues are by default grouped up for
|
||||
best scalability. If some need to be run by separate daemons,
|
||||
etc they can be manually adjusted here.
|
||||
|
||||
Default will share all queues for all sites within each group.
|
||||
Specify as <group>/<queue> or <group>/<queue>/<site>,
|
||||
using nickname identifier as site.
|
||||
|
||||
'main/distrib' separate "distrib" queue covering all sites
|
||||
'xmpp/xmppout/mysite' separate "xmppout" queue covering just 'mysite'
|
||||
|
||||
max_retries: for stomp, drop messages after N failed attempts to process.
|
||||
Defaults to 10.
|
||||
|
||||
dead_letter_dir: for stomp, optional directory to dump data on failed
|
||||
queue processing events after discarding them.
|
||||
|
||||
stomp_no_transactions: for stomp, the server does not support transactions,
|
||||
so do not try to user them. This is needed for http://www.morbidq.com/.
|
||||
|
||||
stomp_no_acks: for stomp, the server does not support acknowledgements.
|
||||
so do not try to user them. This is needed for http://www.morbidq.com/.
|
||||
|
||||
license
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
The default license to use for your users notices. The default is the
|
||||
Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license, which is probably the right
|
||||
choice for any public site. Note that some other servers will not
|
||||
accept notices if you apply a stricter license than this.
|
||||
|
||||
type: one of 'cc' (for Creative Commons licenses), 'allrightsreserved'
|
||||
(default copyright), or 'private' (for private and confidential
|
||||
information).
|
||||
owner: for 'allrightsreserved' or 'private', an assigned copyright
|
||||
holder (for example, an employer for a private site). If
|
||||
not specified, will be attributed to 'contributors'.
|
||||
url: URL of the license, used for links.
|
||||
title: Title for the license, like 'Creative Commons Attribution 3.0'.
|
||||
image: A button shown on each page for the license.
|
||||
|
||||
mail
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
This is for configuring out-going email. We use PEAR's Mail module,
|
||||
see: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.mail.mail.factory.php
|
||||
|
||||
backend: the backend to use for mail, one of 'mail', 'sendmail', and
|
||||
'smtp'. Defaults to PEAR's default, 'mail'.
|
||||
params: if the mail backend requires any parameters, you can provide
|
||||
them in an associative array.
|
||||
|
||||
nickname
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
This is for configuring nicknames in the service.
|
||||
|
||||
blacklist: an array of strings for usernames that may not be
|
||||
registered. A default array exists for strings that are
|
||||
used by StatusNet (e.g. 'doc', 'main', 'avatar', 'theme')
|
||||
but you may want to add others if you have other software
|
||||
installed in a subdirectory of StatusNet or if you just
|
||||
don't want certain words used as usernames.
|
||||
featured: an array of nicknames of 'featured' users of the site.
|
||||
Can be useful to draw attention to well-known users, or
|
||||
interesting people, or whatever.
|
||||
|
||||
avatar
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
For configuring avatar access.
|
||||
|
||||
dir: Directory to look for avatar files and to put them into.
|
||||
Defaults to avatar subdirectory of install directory; if
|
||||
you change it, make sure to change path, too.
|
||||
path: Path to avatars. Defaults to path for avatar subdirectory,
|
||||
but you can change it if you wish. Note that this will
|
||||
be included with the avatar server, too.
|
||||
server: If set, defines another server where avatars are stored in the
|
||||
root directory. Note that the 'avatar' subdir still has to be
|
||||
writeable. You'd typically use this to split HTTP requests on
|
||||
the client to speed up page loading, either with another
|
||||
virtual server or with an NFS or SAMBA share. Clients
|
||||
typically only make 2 connections to a single server at a
|
||||
time <https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec8.html#sec8.1.4>,
|
||||
so this can parallelize the job. Defaults to null.
|
||||
ssl: Whether to access avatars using HTTPS. Defaults to null, meaning
|
||||
to guess based on site-wide SSL settings.
|
||||
|
||||
public
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
For configuring the public stream.
|
||||
|
||||
localonly: If set to true, only messages posted by users of this
|
||||
service (rather than other services, filtered through OStatus)
|
||||
are shown in the public stream. Default true.
|
||||
blacklist: An array of IDs of users to hide from the public stream.
|
||||
Useful if you have someone making excessive Twitterfeed posts
|
||||
to the site, other kinds of automated posts, testing bots, etc.
|
||||
autosource: Sources of notices that are from automatic posters, and thus
|
||||
should be kept off the public timeline. Default empty.
|
||||
|
||||
theme
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
server: Like avatars, you can speed up page loading by pointing the
|
||||
theme file lookup to another server (virtual or real).
|
||||
Defaults to NULL, meaning to use the site server.
|
||||
dir: Directory where theme files are stored. Used to determine
|
||||
whether to show parts of a theme file. Defaults to the theme
|
||||
subdirectory of the install directory.
|
||||
path: Path part of theme URLs, before the theme name. Relative to the
|
||||
theme server. It may make sense to change this path when upgrading,
|
||||
(using version numbers as the path) to make sure that all files are
|
||||
reloaded by caching clients or proxies. Defaults to null,
|
||||
which means to use the site path + '/theme'.
|
||||
ssl: Whether to use SSL for theme elements. Default is null, which means
|
||||
guess based on site SSL settings.
|
||||
sslserver: SSL server to use when page is HTTPS-encrypted. If
|
||||
unspecified, site ssl server and so on will be used.
|
||||
sslpath: If sslserver if defined, path to use when page is HTTPS-encrypted.
|
||||
|
||||
javascript
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
server: You can speed up page loading by pointing the
|
||||
theme file lookup to another server (virtual or real).
|
||||
Defaults to NULL, meaning to use the site server.
|
||||
path: Path part of Javascript URLs. Defaults to null,
|
||||
which means to use the site path + '/js/'.
|
||||
ssl: Whether to use SSL for JavaScript files. Default is null, which means
|
||||
guess based on site SSL settings.
|
||||
sslserver: SSL server to use when page is HTTPS-encrypted. If
|
||||
unspecified, site ssl server and so on will be used.
|
||||
sslpath: If sslserver if defined, path to use when page is HTTPS-encrypted.
|
||||
bustframes: If true, all web pages will break out of framesets. If false,
|
||||
can comfortably live in a frame or iframe... probably. Default
|
||||
to true.
|
||||
|
||||
xmpp
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
For configuring the XMPP sub-system.
|
||||
|
||||
enabled: Whether to accept and send messages by XMPP. Default false.
|
||||
server: server part of XMPP ID for update user.
|
||||
port: connection port for clients. Default 5222, which you probably
|
||||
shouldn't need to change.
|
||||
user: username for the client connection. Users will receive messages
|
||||
from 'user'@'server'.
|
||||
resource: a unique identifier for the connection to the server. This
|
||||
is actually used as a prefix for each XMPP component in the system.
|
||||
password: password for the user account.
|
||||
host: some XMPP domains are served by machines with a different
|
||||
hostname. Set this to the correct hostname if that's the
|
||||
case with your server.
|
||||
encryption: Whether to encrypt the connection between StatusNet and the
|
||||
XMPP server. Defaults to true, but you can get
|
||||
considerably better performance turning it off if you're
|
||||
connecting to a server on the same machine or on a
|
||||
protected network.
|
||||
debug: if turned on, this will make the XMPP library blurt out all of
|
||||
the incoming and outgoing messages as XML stanzas. Use as a
|
||||
last resort, and never turn it on if you don't have queues
|
||||
enabled, since it will spit out sensitive data to the browser.
|
||||
public: an array of JIDs to send _all_ notices to. This is useful for
|
||||
participating in third-party search and archiving services.
|
||||
|
||||
invite
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
For configuring invites.
|
||||
|
||||
enabled: Whether to allow users to send invites. Default true.
|
||||
|
||||
tag
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Miscellaneous tagging stuff.
|
||||
|
||||
dropoff: Decay factor for tag listing, in seconds.
|
||||
Defaults to exponential decay over ten days; you can twiddle
|
||||
with it to try and get better results for your site.
|
||||
|
||||
popular
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
Settings for the "popular" section of the site.
|
||||
|
||||
dropoff: Decay factor for popularity listing, in seconds.
|
||||
Defaults to exponential decay over ten days; you can twiddle
|
||||
with it to try and get better results for your site.
|
||||
|
||||
daemon
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
For daemon processes.
|
||||
|
||||
piddir: directory that daemon processes should write their PID file
|
||||
(process ID) to. Defaults to /var/run/, which is where this
|
||||
stuff should usually go on Unix-ish systems.
|
||||
user: If set, the daemons will try to change their effective user ID
|
||||
to this user before running. Probably a good idea, especially if
|
||||
you start the daemons as root. Note: user name, like 'daemon',
|
||||
not 1001.
|
||||
group: If set, the daemons will try to change their effective group ID
|
||||
to this named group. Again, a name, not a numerical ID.
|
||||
|
||||
emailpost
|
||||
---------
|
||||
|
||||
For post-by-email.
|
||||
|
||||
enabled: Whether to enable post-by-email. Defaults to true. You will
|
||||
also need to set up maildaemon.php.
|
||||
|
||||
sms
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
For SMS integration.
|
||||
|
||||
enabled: Whether to enable SMS integration. Defaults to true. Queues
|
||||
should also be enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
integration
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
A catch-all for integration with other systems.
|
||||
|
||||
taguri: base for tag:// URIs. Defaults to site-server + ',2009'.
|
||||
|
||||
inboxes
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
For notice inboxes.
|
||||
|
||||
enabled: No longer used. If you set this to something other than true,
|
||||
StatusNet will no longer run.
|
||||
|
||||
throttle
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
For notice-posting throttles.
|
||||
|
||||
enabled: Whether to throttle posting. Defaults to false.
|
||||
count: Each user can make this many posts in 'timespan' seconds. So, if count
|
||||
is 100 and timespan is 3600, then there can be only 100 posts
|
||||
from a user every hour.
|
||||
timespan: see 'count'.
|
||||
|
||||
profile
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
Profile management.
|
||||
|
||||
biolimit: max character length of bio; 0 means no limit; null means to use
|
||||
the site text limit default.
|
||||
backup: whether users can backup their own profiles. Defaults to false.
|
||||
restore: whether users can restore their profiles from backup files. Defaults
|
||||
to false.
|
||||
delete: whether users can delete their own accounts. Defaults to false.
|
||||
move: whether users can move their accounts to another server. Defaults
|
||||
to true.
|
||||
|
||||
newuser
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
Options with new users.
|
||||
|
||||
default: nickname of a user account to automatically subscribe new
|
||||
users to. Typically this would be system account for e.g.
|
||||
service updates or announcements. Users are able to unsub
|
||||
if they want. Default is null; no auto subscribe.
|
||||
welcome: nickname of a user account that sends welcome messages to new
|
||||
users. Can be the same as 'default' account, although on
|
||||
busy servers it may be a good idea to keep that one just for
|
||||
'urgent' messages. Default is null; no message.
|
||||
|
||||
If either of these special user accounts are specified, the users should
|
||||
be created before the configuration is updated.
|
||||
|
||||
attachments
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
The software lets users upload files with their notices. You can configure
|
||||
the types of accepted files by mime types and a trio of quota options:
|
||||
per file, per user (total), per user per month.
|
||||
|
||||
We suggest the use of the pecl file_info extension to handle mime type
|
||||
detection.
|
||||
|
||||
supported: an array of mime types you accept to store and distribute,
|
||||
like 'image/gif', 'video/mpeg', 'audio/mpeg', etc. Make sure you
|
||||
setup your server to properly recognize the types you want to
|
||||
support.
|
||||
uploads: false to disable uploading files with notices (true by default).
|
||||
|
||||
For quotas, be sure you've set the upload_max_filesize and post_max_size
|
||||
in php.ini to be large enough to handle your upload. In httpd.conf
|
||||
(if you're using apache), check that the LimitRequestBody directive isn't
|
||||
set too low (it's optional, so it may not be there at all).
|
||||
|
||||
process_links: follow redirects and save all available file information
|
||||
(mimetype, date, size, oembed, etc.). Defaults to true.
|
||||
file_quota: maximum size for a single file upload in bytes. A user can send
|
||||
any amount of notices with attachments as long as each attachment
|
||||
is smaller than file_quota.
|
||||
user_quota: total size in bytes a user can store on this server. Each user
|
||||
can store any number of files as long as their total size does
|
||||
not exceed the user_quota.
|
||||
monthly_quota: total size permitted in the current month. This is the total
|
||||
size in bytes that a user can upload each month.
|
||||
dir: directory accessible to the Web process where uploads should go.
|
||||
Defaults to the 'file' subdirectory of the install directory, which
|
||||
should be writeable by the Web user.
|
||||
server: server name to use when creating URLs for uploaded files.
|
||||
Defaults to null, meaning to use the default Web server. Using
|
||||
a virtual server here can speed up Web performance.
|
||||
path: URL path, relative to the server, to find files. Defaults to
|
||||
main path + '/file/'.
|
||||
ssl: whether to use HTTPS for file URLs. Defaults to null, meaning to
|
||||
guess based on other SSL settings.
|
||||
sslserver: if specified, this server will be used when creating HTTPS
|
||||
URLs. Otherwise, the site SSL server will be used, with /file/ path.
|
||||
sslpath: if this and the sslserver are specified, this path will be used
|
||||
when creating HTTPS URLs. Otherwise, the attachments|path value
|
||||
will be used.
|
||||
show_thumbs: show thumbnails in notice lists for uploaded images, and photos
|
||||
and videos linked remotely that provide oEmbed info. Defaults to true.
|
||||
show_html: show (filtered) text/html attachments (and oEmbed HTML etc.).
|
||||
Doesn't affect AJAX calls. Defaults to false.
|
||||
filename_base: for new files, choose one: 'upload', 'hash'. Defaults to hash.
|
||||
|
||||
group
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
Options for group functionality.
|
||||
|
||||
maxaliases: maximum number of aliases a group can have. Default 3. Set
|
||||
to 0 or less to prevent aliases in a group.
|
||||
desclimit: maximum number of characters to allow in group descriptions.
|
||||
null (default) means to use the site-wide text limits. 0
|
||||
means no limit.
|
||||
addtag: Whether to add a tag for the group nickname for every group post
|
||||
(pre-1.0.x behaviour). Defaults to false.
|
||||
|
||||
search
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
Some stuff for search.
|
||||
|
||||
type: type of search. Ignored if PostgreSQL or Sphinx are enabled. Can either
|
||||
be 'fulltext' or 'like' (default). The former is faster and more efficient
|
||||
but requires the lame old MyISAM engine for MySQL. The latter
|
||||
will work with InnoDB but could be miserably slow on large
|
||||
systems. We'll probably add another type sometime in the future,
|
||||
with our own indexing system (maybe like MediaWiki's).
|
||||
|
||||
sessions
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
Session handling.
|
||||
|
||||
handle: boolean. Whether we should register our own PHP session-handling
|
||||
code (using the database and cache layers if enabled). Defaults to false.
|
||||
Setting this to true makes some sense on large or multi-server
|
||||
sites, but it probably won't hurt for smaller ones, either.
|
||||
debug: whether to output debugging info for session storage. Can help
|
||||
with weird session bugs, sometimes. Default false.
|
||||
|
||||
ping
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
Using the "XML-RPC Ping" method initiated by weblogs.com, the site can
|
||||
notify third-party servers of updates.
|
||||
|
||||
notify: an array of URLs for ping endpoints. Default is the empty
|
||||
array (no notification).
|
||||
|
||||
notice
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration options specific to notices.
|
||||
|
||||
contentlimit: max length of the plain-text content of a notice.
|
||||
Default is null, meaning to use the site-wide text limit.
|
||||
0 means no limit.
|
||||
defaultscope: default scope for notices. If null, the default
|
||||
scope depends on site/private. It's 1 if the site is private,
|
||||
0 otherwise. Set this value to override.
|
||||
|
||||
message
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration options specific to messages.
|
||||
|
||||
contentlimit: max length of the plain-text content of a message.
|
||||
Default is null, meaning to use the site-wide text limit.
|
||||
0 means no limit.
|
||||
|
||||
logincommand
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration options for the login command.
|
||||
|
||||
disabled: whether to enable this command. If enabled, users who send
|
||||
the text 'login' to the site through any channel will
|
||||
receive a link to login to the site automatically in return.
|
||||
Possibly useful for users who primarily use an XMPP or SMS
|
||||
interface and can't be bothered to remember their site
|
||||
password. Note that the security implications of this are
|
||||
pretty serious and have not been thoroughly tested. You
|
||||
should enable it only after you've convinced yourself that
|
||||
it is safe. Default is 'false'.
|
||||
|
||||
singleuser
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
If an installation has only one user, this can simplify a lot of the
|
||||
interface. It also makes the user's profile the root URL.
|
||||
|
||||
enabled: Whether to run in "single user mode". Default false.
|
||||
nickname: nickname of the single user. If no nickname is specified,
|
||||
the site owner account will be used (if present).
|
||||
|
||||
robotstxt
|
||||
---------
|
||||
|
||||
We put out a default robots.txt file to guide the processing of
|
||||
Web crawlers. See http://www.robotstxt.org/ for more information
|
||||
on the format of this file.
|
||||
|
||||
crawldelay: if non-empty, this value is provided as the Crawl-Delay:
|
||||
for the robots.txt file. see <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robots_exclusion_standard#Crawl-delay_directive>
|
||||
for more information. Default is zero, no explicit delay.
|
||||
disallow: Array of (virtual) directories to disallow. Default is 'main',
|
||||
'search', 'message', 'settings', 'admin'. Ignored when site
|
||||
is private, in which case the entire site ('/') is disallowed.
|
||||
|
||||
api
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Options for the Twitter-like API.
|
||||
|
||||
realm: HTTP Basic Auth realm (see http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2617
|
||||
for details). Some third-party tools like ping.fm want this to be
|
||||
'Identi.ca API', so set it to that if you want to. default = null,
|
||||
meaning 'something based on the site name'.
|
||||
|
||||
nofollow
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
We optionally put 'rel="nofollow"' on some links in some pages. The
|
||||
following configuration settings let you fine-tune how or when things
|
||||
are nofollowed. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nofollow for more
|
||||
information on what 'nofollow' means.
|
||||
|
||||
subscribers: whether to nofollow links to subscribers on the profile
|
||||
and personal pages. Default is true.
|
||||
members: links to members on the group page. Default true.
|
||||
peopletag: links to people listed in the peopletag page. Default true.
|
||||
external: external links in notices. One of three values: 'sometimes',
|
||||
'always', 'never'. If 'sometimes', then external links are not
|
||||
nofollowed on profile, notice, and favorites page. Default is
|
||||
'sometimes'.
|
||||
|
||||
url
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
These are some options for fine-tuning how and when the server will
|
||||
shorten URLs.
|
||||
|
||||
shortener: URL shortening service to use by default. Users can override
|
||||
individually. 'internal' by default.
|
||||
maxurllength: If an URL is strictly longer than this limit, it will be
|
||||
shortened. Note that the URL shortener service may return an
|
||||
URL longer than this limit. Defaults to 100. Users can
|
||||
override. If set to 0, all URLs will be shortened.
|
||||
maxnoticelength: If a notice is strictly longer than this limit, all
|
||||
URLs in the notice will be shortened. Users can override.
|
||||
-1 means the text limit for notices.
|
||||
|
||||
router
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
We use a router class for mapping URLs to code. This section controls
|
||||
how that router works.
|
||||
|
||||
cache: whether to cache the router in cache layers. Defaults to true,
|
||||
but may be set to false for developers (who might be actively
|
||||
adding pages, so won't want the router cached) or others who see
|
||||
strange behavior. You're unlikely to need this unless developing..
|
||||
|
||||
http
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
Settings for the HTTP client.
|
||||
|
||||
ssl_cafile: location of the CA file for SSL. If not set, won't verify
|
||||
SSL peers. Default unset.
|
||||
curl: Use cURL <http://curl.haxx.se/> for doing HTTP calls. You must
|
||||
have the PHP curl extension installed for this to work.
|
||||
proxy_host: Host to use for proxying HTTP requests. If unset, doesn't
|
||||
do any HTTP proxy stuff. Default unset.
|
||||
proxy_port: Port to use to connect to HTTP proxy host. Default null.
|
||||
proxy_user: Username to use for authenticating to the HTTP proxy. Default null.
|
||||
proxy_password: Password to use for authenticating to the HTTP proxy. Default null.
|
||||
proxy_auth_scheme: Scheme to use for authenticating to the HTTP proxy. Default null.
|
||||
|
||||
plugins
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
default: associative array mapping plugin name to array of arguments. To disable
|
||||
a default plugin, unset its value in this array.
|
||||
locale_path: path for finding plugin locale files. In the plugin's directory
|
||||
by default.
|
||||
server: Server to find static files for a plugin when the page is plain old HTTP.
|
||||
Defaults to site/server (same as pages). Use this to move plugin CSS and
|
||||
JS files to a CDN.
|
||||
sslserver: Server to find static files for a plugin when the page is HTTPS. Defaults
|
||||
to site/server (same as pages). Use this to move plugin CSS and JS files
|
||||
to a CDN.
|
||||
path: Path to the plugin files. defaults to site/path + '/plugins/'. Expects that
|
||||
each plugin will have a subdirectory at plugins/NameOfPlugin. Change this
|
||||
if you're using a CDN.
|
||||
sslpath: Path to use on the SSL server. Same as plugins/path.
|
||||
|
||||
performance
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
high: if you need high performance, or if you're seeing bad
|
||||
performance, set this to true. It will turn off some high-intensity code from
|
||||
the site.
|
||||
|
||||
cache
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
dir: A string path to a writable directory that will be used as temporary cache
|
||||
for some functions (currently just the HtmlSanitizer).
|
||||
If it is not set, the GNU social installation directory will be used.
|
||||
|
||||
oldschool
|
||||
---------
|
||||
|
||||
enabled: enable certain old-style user settings options, like stream-only mode,
|
||||
conversation trees, and nicknames in streams. Off by default, and
|
||||
may not be well supported in future versions.

Plugins
|
||||
=======
|
||||
|
||||
GNU social supports a simple but
|
||||
powerful plugin architecture. Important events in the code are named,
|
||||
like 'StartNoticeSave', and other software can register interest
|
||||
in those events. When the events happen, the other software is called
|
||||
and has a choice of accepting or rejecting the events.
|
||||
|
||||
In the simplest case, you can add a function to config.php and use the
|
||||
Event::addHandler() function to hook an event:
|
||||
|
||||
function AddMyWebsiteLink($action)
|
||||
{
|
||||
$action->menuItem('http://mywebsite.net/', _('My web site'), _('Example web link'));
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
Event::addHandler('EndPrimaryNav', 'AddMyWebsiteLink');
|
||||
|
||||
This adds a menu item to the end of the main navigation menu. You can
|
||||
see the list of existing events, and parameters that handlers must
|
||||
implement, in EVENTS.txt.
|
||||
|
||||
The Plugin class in lib/plugin.php makes it easier to write more
|
||||
complex plugins. Sub-classes can just create methods named
|
||||
'onEventName', where 'EventName' is the name of the event (case
|
||||
matters!). These methods will be automatically registered as event
|
||||
handlers by the Plugin constructor (which you must call from your own
|
||||
class's constructor).
|
||||
|
||||
Several example plugins are included in the plugins/ directory. You
|
||||
can enable a plugin with the following line in config.php:
|
||||
|
||||
addPlugin('Example', array('param1' => 'value1',
|
||||
'param2' => 'value2'));
|
||||
|
||||
This will look for and load files named 'ExamplePlugin.php' or
|
||||
'Example/ExamplePlugin.php' either in the plugins/ directory (for
|
||||
plugins that ship with GNU social) or in the local/ directory (for
|
||||
plugins you write yourself or that you get from somewhere else) or
|
||||
local/plugins/.
|
||||
|
||||
Plugins are documented in their own directories.

|
||||
Initial simple way to Webfinger enable your domain -- needs PHP.
|
||||
================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
This guide needs some updating, since it will only guide you to present
|
||||
XML data (while the curl command likely gives you JSON). The workaround
|
||||
is to simply make curl get 'webfinger.xml' instead, and/or have another
|
||||
file that contains JSON, but that requires editing the PHP file as well.
|
||||
|
||||
Step 1
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Put the 'dot-well-known' on your website, so it loads at:
|
||||
|
||||
https://example.com/.well-known/
|
||||
|
||||
(Remember the . at the beginning of this one, which is common practice
|
||||
for "hidden" files and why we have renamed it "dot-")
|
||||
|
||||
Step 2
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Edit the .well-known/host-meta file and replace "example.com" with the
|
||||
domain name you're hosting the .well-known directory on.
|
||||
|
||||
Using vim you can do this as a quick method:
|
||||
$ vim .well-known/host-meta [ENTER]
|
||||
:%s/example.com/domain.com/ [ENTER]
|
||||
:wq [ENTER]
|
||||
|
||||
Step 3
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
For each user on your site, and this might only be you...
|
||||
|
||||
In the webfinger directory, make a copy of the example@example.com.xml file
|
||||
so that it's called (replace username and example.com with appropriate
|
||||
values, the domain name should be the same as you're "socialifying"):
|
||||
|
||||
username@example.com.xml
|
||||
|
||||
Then edit the file contents, replacing "social.example.com" with your
|
||||
GNU social instance's base path, and change the user ID number (and
|
||||
nickname for the FOAF link) to that of your account on your social
|
||||
site. If you don't know your user ID number, you can see this on your
|
||||
GNU social profile page by looking at the destination URLs in the
|
||||
Feeds links.
|
||||
|
||||
PROTIP: You can get the bulk of the contents (note the <Subject> element though)
|
||||
from curling down your real webfinger data:
|
||||
$ curl https://social.example.com/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:username@social.example.com
|
||||
|
||||
Finally
|
||||
=======
|
||||
|
||||
Using this method, though fiddly, you can now be @user@domain without
|
||||
the need for any prefixes for subdomains, etc.

Upgrading
|
||||
=========
|
||||
|
||||
GNU social 1.1.x to GNU social 1.2.x
|
||||
------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
If you are tracking the GNU social git repository, we currently recommend
|
||||
using the "master" branch (or nightly if you want to use latest features)
|
||||
and follow this procedure:
|
||||
|
||||
0. Backup your data. The StatusNet upgrade discussions below have some
|
||||
guidelines to back up the database and files (mysqldump and rsync).
|
||||
|
||||
MAKE SURE YOU ARE THE SAME USER THAT RUNS THE PHP FILES WHILE PERFORMING
|
||||
THE COMMANDS BELOW (I usually prepend the commands with 'sudo -u social')
|
||||
|
||||
1. Stop your queue daemons (you can run this command even if you do not
|
||||
use the queue daemons):
|
||||
$ bash scripts/stopdaemons.sh
|
||||
|
||||
2. Run the command to fetch the latest sourcecode:
|
||||
$ git pull
|
||||
|
||||
If you are not using git we recommend following the instructions below
|
||||
for upgrading "StatusNet 1.1.x to GNU social 1.2.x" as they are similar.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Run the upgrade script:
|
||||
$ php scripts/upgrade.php
|
||||
|
||||
The upgrade script will likely take a long time because it will
|
||||
upgrade the tables to another character encoding and make other
|
||||
automated upgrades. Make sure it ends without errors. If you get
|
||||
errors, create a new task on https://git.gnu.io/gnu/gnu-social/issues
|
||||
|
||||
4. Start your queue daemons again (you can run this command even if you
|
||||
do not use the queue daemons):
|
||||
$ bash scripts/startdaemons.sh
|
||||
|
||||
5. Report any issues at https://git.gnu.io/gnu/gnu-social/issues
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using ssh keys to log in to your server, you can make this
|
||||
procedure pretty painless (assuming you have automated backups already).
|
||||
Make sure you "cd" into the correct directory (in this case "htdocs")
|
||||
and use the correct login@hostname combo:
|
||||
$ ssh social@domain.example 'cd htdocs
|
||||
&& bash scripts/stopdaemons.sh
|
||||
&& git pull
|
||||
&& time php scripts/upgrade.php
|
||||
&& bash scripts/startdaemons.sh'
|
||||
|
||||
StatusNet 1.1.x to GNU social 1.2.x
|
||||
-----------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
We cannot support migrating from any other version of StatusNet than
|
||||
1.1.1. If you are running a StatusNet version lower than this, please
|
||||
follow the upgrade procedures for each respective StatusNet version.
|
||||
|
||||
You are now running StatusNet 1.1.1 and want to migrate to GNU social
|
||||
1.2.x. Beware there may be changes in minimum required version of PHP
|
||||
and the modules required, so review the INSTALL file (php5-intl is a
|
||||
newly added dependency for example).
|
||||
|
||||
* Before you begin: Make backups. Always make backups. Of your entire
|
||||
directory structure and the database too. All tables. All data. Alles.
|
||||
|
||||
0. Make a backup of everything. To backup the database, you can use a
|
||||
variant of this command (you will be prompted for the database password):
|
||||
$ mysqldump -u dbuser -p dbname > social-backup.sql
|
||||
|
||||
1. Stop your queue daemons 'bash scripts/stopdaemons.sh' should do it.
|
||||
Not everyone runs queue daemons, but the above command won't hurt.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Unpack your GNU social code to a fresh directory. You can do this
|
||||
by cloning our git repository:
|
||||
$ git clone https://git.gnu.io/gnu/gnu-social.git gnusocial
|
||||
|
||||
3. Synchronize your local files to the GNU social directory. These
|
||||
will be the local files such as avatars, config and files:
|
||||
|
||||
avatar/*
|
||||
file/*
|
||||
local/*
|
||||
.htaccess
|
||||
config.php
|
||||
|
||||
This command will point you in the right direction on how to do it:
|
||||
$ rsync -avP statusnet/{.htaccess,avatar,file,local,config.php} gnusocial/
|
||||
|
||||
4. Replace your old StatusNet directory with the new GNU social
|
||||
directory in your webserver root.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Run the upgrade script: 'php scripts/upgrade.php'
|
||||
The upgrade script will likely take a long time because it will
|
||||
upgrade the tables to another character encoding and make other
|
||||
automated upgrades. Make sure it ends without errors. If you get
|
||||
errors, create a new task on https://git.gnu.io/gnu/gnu-social/issues
