# funkwhale [Funkwhale](funkwhale.audio/) is a community-driven project that lets you listen and share music and audio within a decentralized, open network. ## Dependencies This service requires the following other services: - a [Postgres](postgres.md) database - a [Redis](redis.md) data-store, installation details [below](#redis) - a [Traefik](traefik.md) reverse-proxy server ## Configuration To enable this service, add the following configuration to your `vars.yml` file and re-run the [installation](../installing.md) process: ```yaml ######################################################################## # # # funkwhale # # # ######################################################################## funkwhale_enabled: true funkwhale_hostname: mash.example.com # Put a strong secret below, generated with `pwgen -s 64 1` or in another way funkwhale_django_secret_key: '' # Redis configuration, as described below ######################################################################## # # # /funkwhale # # # ######################################################################## ``` ### Redis As described on the [Redis](redis.md) documentation page, if you're hosting additional services which require Redis on the same server, you'd better go for installing a separate Redis instance for each service. See [Creating a Redis instance dedicated to funkwhale](#creating-a-redis-instance-dedicated-to-funkwhale). If you're only running funkwhale on this server and don't need to use Redis for anything else, you can [use a single Redis instance](#using-the-shared-redis-instance-for-funkwhale). #### Using the shared Redis instance for funkwhale To install a single (non-dedicated) Redis instance (`mash-redis`) and hook funkwhale to it, add the following **additional** configuration: ```yaml ######################################################################## # # # redis # # # ######################################################################## redis_enabled: true ######################################################################## # # # /redis # # # ######################################################################## ######################################################################## # # # funkwhale # # # ######################################################################## # Base configuration as shown above # Point funkwhale to the shared Redis instance funkwhale_config_redis_hostname: "{{ redis_identifier }}" # Make sure the funkwhale service (mash-funkwhale.service) starts after the shared Redis service (mash-redis.service) funkwhale_systemd_required_services_list_custom: - "{{ redis_identifier }}.service" # Make sure the funkwhale container is connected to the container network of the shared Redis service (mash-redis) funkwhale_container_additional_networks_custom: - "{{ redis_identifier }}" ######################################################################## # # # /funkwhale # # # ######################################################################## ``` This will create a `mash-redis` Redis instance on this host. This is only recommended if you won't be installing other services which require Redis. Alternatively, go for [Creating a Redis instance dedicated to funkwhale](#creating-a-redis-instance-dedicated-to-funkwhale). #### Creating a Redis instance dedicated to funkwhale The following instructions are based on the [Running multiple instances of the same service on the same host](../running-multiple-instances.md) documentation. Adjust your `inventory/hosts` file as described in [Re-do your inventory to add supplementary hosts](../running-multiple-instances.md#re-do-your-inventory-to-add-supplementary-hosts), adding a new supplementary host (e.g. if `funkwhale.example.com` is your main one, create `funkwhale.example.com-deps`). Then, create a new `vars.yml` file for the `inventory/host_vars/funkwhale.example.com-deps/vars.yml`: ```yaml --- ######################################################################## # # # Playbook # # # ######################################################################## # Put a strong secret below, generated with `pwgen -s 64 1` or in another way # Various other secrets will be derived from this secret automatically. mash_playbook_generic_secret_key: '' # Override service names and directory path prefixes mash_playbook_service_identifier_prefix: 'mash-funkwhale-' mash_playbook_service_base_directory_name_prefix: 'funkwhale-' ######################################################################## # # # /Playbook # # # ######################################################################## ######################################################################## # # # redis # # # ######################################################################## redis_enabled: true ######################################################################## # # # /redis # # # ######################################################################## ``` This will create a `mash-funkwhale-redis` instance on this host with its data in `/mash/funkwhale-redis`. Then, adjust your main inventory host's variables file (`inventory/host_vars/funkwhale.example.com/vars.yml`) like this: ```yaml ######################################################################## # # # funkwhale # # # ######################################################################## # Base configuration as shown above # Point funkwhale to its dedicated Redis instance funkwhale_environment_variable_redis_host: mash-funkwhale-redis funkwhale_environment_variable_redis_cache_host: mash-funkwhale-redis # Make sure the funkwhale service (mash-funkwhale.service) starts after its dedicated Redis service (mash-funkwhale-redis.service) funkwhale_systemd_required_services_list_custom: - "mash-funkwhale-redis.service" # Make sure the funkwhale container is connected to the container network of its dedicated Redis service (mash-funkwhale-redis) funkwhale_container_additional_networks_custom: - "mash-funkwhale-redis" ######################################################################## # # # /funkwhale # # # ######################################################################## ``` ## Installation If you've decided to install a dedicated Redis instance for funkwhale, make sure to first do [installation](../installing.md) for the supplementary inventory host (e.g. `funkwhale.example.com-deps`), before running installation for the main one (e.g. `funkwhale.example.com`). ## Usage After installation, you can go to the funkwhale URL, as defined in `funkwhale_hostname`.
