* Rewrites the demo documentation to be clearer, accurate, and moves it to our documentation tree. * Improvements to the demo scripts: * `clean.sh` now runs `stop.sh` first to avoid zombie processes. * Uses more modern Synapse configuration (and removes some obsolete configuration). * Consistently use the HTTP ports for server name, etc. * Remove the `demo/etc` directory and place everything into the `demo/808x` directories.

# Synapse demo setup
|
|
|
|
**DO NOT USE THESE DEMO SERVERS IN PRODUCTION**
|
|
|
|
Requires you to have a [Synapse development environment setup](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/development/contributing_guide.html#4-install-the-dependencies).
|
|
|
|
The demo setup allows running three federation Synapse servers, with server
|
|
names `localhost:8080`, `localhost:8081`, and `localhost:8082`.
|
|
|
|
You can access them via any Matrix client over HTTP at `localhost:8080`,
|
|
`localhost:8081`, and `localhost:8082` or over HTTPS at `localhost:8480`,
|
|
`localhost:8481`, and `localhost:8482`.
|
|
|
|
To enable the servers to communicate, self-signed SSL certificates are generated
|
|
and the servers are configured in a highly insecure way, including:
|
|
|
|
* Not checking certificates over federation.
|
|
* Not verifying keys.
|
|
|
|
The servers are configured to store their data under `demo/8080`, `demo/8081`, and
|
|
`demo/8082`. This includes configuration, logs, SQLite databases, and media.
|
|
|
|
Note that when joining a public room on a different HS via "#foo:bar.net", then
|
|
you are (in the current impl) joining a room with room_id "foo". This means that
|
|
it won't work if your HS already has a room with that name.
|
|
|
|
## Using the demo scripts
|
|
|
|
There's three main scripts with straightforward purposes:
|
|
|
|
* `start.sh` will start the Synapse servers, generating any missing configuration.
|
|
* This accepts a single parameter `--no-rate-limit` to "disable" rate limits
|
|
(they actually still exist, but are very high).
|
|
* `stop.sh` will stop the Synapse servers.
|
|
* `clean.sh` will delete the configuration, databases, log files, etc.
|
|
|
|
To start a completely new set of servers, run:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
./demo/stop.sh; ./demo/clean.sh && ./demo/start.sh
|
|
```
