Synapse

Synapse is an open-source Matrix home server written and maintained by the Matrix.org Foundation.

Generate Configuration File

• Before creating, use the following terminal command to generate the required configuration file. Modify the parameter my.matrix.host as needed:

docker run -it --rm \
  -v synapse-data:/data \  # Mount a volume to map the /data directory inside the container to the synapse-data volume
  -e SYNAPSE_SERVER_NAME=my.matrix.host \  # Set the public hostname of the Synapse server
  -e SYNAPSE_REPORT_STATS=no \  # Disable anonymous statistics reporting
  -e SYNAPSE_HTTP_PORT=8008 \  # Set the HTTP port Synapse listens on to 8008
  -e SYNAPSE_CONFIG_DIR=/data \  # Set the storage location for configuration files to /data
  -e SYNAPSE_DATA_DIR=/data \  # Set the storage location for persistent data to /data
  -e TZ=Asia/Shanghai \  # Set the container's timezone to Asia/Shanghai
  -e UID=1000 \  # Set the user ID running Synapse
  -e GID=1000 \  # Set the group ID running Synapse
  matrixdotorg/synapse:latest generate  # Run the latest version of the matrixdotorg/synapse image and execute the generate command to create configuration files

The default storage path for configuration files is in the synapse-data volume at /var/lib/docker/volumes/synapse-data/_data.
