# GoToSocial
|
|
|
|
[GoToSocial](https://gotosocial.org/) is a self-hosted [ActivityPub](https://activitypub.rocks/) social network server, that this playbook can install, powered by the [mother-of-all-self-hosting/ansible-role-gotosocial](https://github.com/mother-of-all-self-hosting/ansible-role-gotosocial) Ansible role.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
To enable this service, add the following configuration to your `vars.yml` file and re-run the [installation](../installing.md) process:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
########################################################################
|
|
# #
|
|
# gotosocial #
|
|
# #
|
|
########################################################################
|
|
|
|
gotosocial_enabled: true
|
|
gotosocial_hostname: 'social.example.org'
|
|
|
|
########################################################################
|
|
# #
|
|
# /gotosocial #
|
|
# #
|
|
########################################################################
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After installation, you can use `ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=gotosocial-add-user --extra-vars "username=<username> email=<email> password=<password>"`
|
|
to create your a user. Change `--tags=gotosocial-add-user` to `--tags=gotosocial-add-admin` to create an admin account.
|
|
|
|
### Usage
|
|
|
|
After [installing](../installing.md), you can visti at the URL specified in `firezone_hostname` and should see your instance.
|
|
Start to customize it at `social.example.org/admin`.
|
|
|
|
Use the [GtS CLI Tool](https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/admin/cli/) to do admin & maintenance tasks. E.g. use
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker exec -it mash-gotosocial /gotosocial/gotosocial admin account demote --username <username>
|
|
```
|
|
to demote a user from admin to normal user.
