fixed up some grammer / wording. removed a setence and made wording more in line with what I could find in Admin-FE (especially wording of "rejecting" vs. dropping)
This vastly reduces idle CPU usage, which should generally be beneficial
for most small-to-medium sized instances.
Additionally update the documentation to specify how to override the vm.args
file for OTP installs
Fixes misspelling and omission of and example in commit
0cfd5b4e89 which added the
status_ttl_property. This was the only place this commit
referred to the property as note_ttl_days.
Partially fixes the omitted schema update of the instance metadata addition
from commit b7e8ce2350. A proper full schema
for nodeinfo is still missing.
The docker-compose.yml file is likely to be edited quite extensively by
admins when setting up an instance. This would likely cause problems
when dealing with updating Akkoma as merge conflicts would likely occur.
Docker-compose already has the ability to use override files in addition
to the main `docker-compose.yml` file. Admins can instead put any
overrides (additional volumes, container for elasticsearch, etc.) into a
file that won't be tracked by git and thus won't run into merge
conflicts in the future. In particular, the
`docker-compose.override.yml` will be checked by docker compose in
addition to the main file if it exists and override definitions from the
latter with the former.
Here we make it a generic placeholder which should make accidental copy-pasting of this command happen less.
We also had one case of someone who got errors because the SHELL variable wasn't set. This is the case for Alpine.
Here I added a line to fill it in when not set.
Commit 11ec9daa5b (released with 3.2.0)
added the fedibird frontend and tweaked and extended Mastodon API for
compatibility with it. Document these changes.
This is useful for people who want to migrate back to Pleroma.
It's also added in the docs, but also noted that this is barely tested and to be used at their own risk.
There were two warnings, these are now fixed.
I moved the fonts folder into the css folder. Antother option was to change the relative path,
but it seems that after changing it in the css file, the path got changed back when rebuilding the site.
Maybe it needs to be changed somewhere else, idk, this worked.
CREATE DATABASE was running in a transaction block with CREATE USER. This isn't allowed (any more?).
This is now two separate commands.
I also did some other touch-ups including
* making it OTP-first,
* add backup of static directory because this contains e.g. custom emoji, and
* remove the suggestion for using the setup_db.psql file. The reason is because I fear it causes more confusion than what it's worth.
* Firstly, OTP installations won't have this file because it's created in /tmp.
* Secondly, the instance has been reinstalled and thus a new setup_db.psql with different password may have been created, causing only more confusion.
When no image description is filled in, Pleroma allowed fallbacks.
Those were (based on a setting) either the filename, or a fixed description.
Neither are good options for image descriptions imo, so here we remove this.
Note that there's two tests removed who supposedly tested something else.
But examining closer, they didn't seem to test what they claimed to test,
so I removed them rather than try to "fix" them.
I added info about installing front ends from the development branch
I also rearanged the list of exceptions (what's different than "normal" installation)
so the order is closer to how you'd encounter things in the installation docs + small fixes
Docs used to be a separate repo who cloned pleroma and pelroma-fe.
Now the docs are just the BE docs and completely part of the Akkoma repo.
I moved back to using venv because that's what I used and cleaner imo since it keeps everything nice in the repo.
(Iirc virtualenv stored things in the Home folder or smthng)
Credit where credit is due; I inspired myself by looking at the yunohost docs
* https://yunohost.org/en/dev
* https://yunohost.org/en/packaging_apps_start
I try to be inviting to new developers and guide them in their first steps into Akkoma development.
I try to keep the page itself as short as possible and link to relevant places.
That way people can quickly skim over parts that they don't need, while people who do need more can simply follow the links.
I experienced that it may be better to tell pgtune you have lower resoures than what you have when you have other services running.
I added that now.
I also moved the examples as part of the pgtune section.
