# Deployment options
# Deploying
There are several ways to deploy a Conduit server.
- [Simple (Recommended)](deploying/simple.md) - This is the recommended way to set up Conduit.
- [Debian](deploying/debian.md) - If you're using a debian-based system, you may find the `deb` package useful.
- [Docker](deploying/docker.md) - We provide multi-arch OCI images for Conduit.
- [Nix](deploying/nix.md) - Nix flake based setup.
This chapter describes various ways to deploy Conduit.

When picking the traefik-related compose file, rename it so it matches `docker-compose.yml`, and
rename the override file to `docker-compose.override.yml`. Edit the latter with the values you want
for your server.

If you want to cross compile Conduit to another architecture, read the guide below.
<details>
<summary>Cross compilation</summary>
As easiest way to compile conduit for another platform [cross-rs](https://github.com/cross-rs/cross) is recommended, so install it first.
In order to use RockDB as storage backend append `-latomic` to linker flags.
For example, to build a binary for Raspberry Pi Zero W (ARMv6) you need `arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf` as compilation
target.
```bash
git clone https://gitlab.com/famedly/conduit.git
cd conduit
export RUSTFLAGS='-C link-arg=-lgcc -Clink-arg=-latomic -Clink-arg=-static-libgcc'
cross build --release --no-default-features --features conduit_bin,backend_rocksdb,jemalloc --target=arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf

While Conduit can run as any user it is usually better to use dedicated users for different services. This also allows

# Conduit for Nix/NixOS
This guide assumes you have a recent version of Nix (^2.4) installed.
Since Conduit ships as a Nix flake, you'll first need to [enable
flakes][enable_flakes].
You can now use the usual Nix commands to interact with Conduit's flake. For
example, `nix run gitlab:famedly/conduit` will run Conduit (though you'll need
to provide configuration and such manually as usual).
If your NixOS configuration is defined as a flake, you can depend on this flake
to provide a more up-to-date version than provided by `nixpkgs`. In your flake,
add the following to your `inputs`:
```nix
conduit = {
url = "gitlab:famedly/conduit";
# Assuming you have an input for nixpkgs called `nixpkgs`. If you experience
# build failures while using this, try commenting/deleting this line. This
# will probably also require you to always build from source.
inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
};
```
Next, make sure you're passing your flake inputs to the `specialArgs` argument
of `nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem` [as explained here][specialargs]. This guide will
assume you've named the group `flake-inputs`.
Now you can configure Conduit and a reverse proxy for it. Add the following to
a new Nix file and include it in your configuration:
```nix
{ config
, pkgs
, flake-inputs
, ...
}:
let
# You'll need to edit these values
# The hostname that will appear in your user and room IDs
server_name = "example.com";
# The hostname that Conduit actually runs on
#
# This can be the same as `server_name` if you want. This is only necessary
# when Conduit is running on a different machine than the one hosting your
# root domain. This configuration also assumes this is all running on a single
# machine, some tweaks will need to be made if this is not the case.
matrix_hostname = "matrix.${server_name}";
# An admin email for TLS certificate notifications
admin_email = "admin@${server_name}";
# These ones you can leave alone
# Build a dervation that stores the content of `${server_name}/.well-known/matrix/server`
well_known_server = pkgs.writeText "well-known-matrix-server" ''
{
"m.server": "${matrix_hostname}"
}
'';
# Build a dervation that stores the content of `${server_name}/.well-known/matrix/client`
well_known_client = pkgs.writeText "well-known-matrix-client" ''
{
"m.homeserver": {
"base_url": "https://${matrix_hostname}"
}
}

networking.firewall.allowedTCPPorts = [ 80 443 8448 ];
networking.firewall.allowedUDPPorts = [ 80 443 8448 ];
}
```
Now you can rebuild your system configuration and you should be good to go!

# Conduit for NixOS
Conduit can be acquired by Nix from various places:
* The `flake.nix` at the root of the repo
* The `default.nix` at the root of the repo
* From Nixpkgs
The `flake.nix` and `default.nix` do not (currently) provide a NixOS module, so
(for now) [`services.matrix-conduit`][module] from Nixpkgs should be used to
configure Conduit.
If you want to run the latest code, you should get Conduit from the `flake.nix`
or `default.nix` and set [`services.matrix-conduit.package`][package]
appropriately.
