# Install Firefish

This document shows an example procedure for installing Firefish on Debian 12. Note that there is much room for customizing the server setup; this document merely demonstrates a simple installation.

If you want to use the pre-built container image, please refer to [`install-container.md`](./install-container.md).

Make sure that you can use the `sudo` command before proceeding.

## 1. Install dependencies

### Utilities

```sh
sudo apt update
sudo apt install build-essential python3 curl wget git lsb-release
```

### Node.js and pnpm

Instructions can be found at [this repository](https://github.com/nodesource/distributions).

```sh
NODE_MAJOR=20
curl -fsSL "https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_${NODE_MAJOR}.x" | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt install nodejs

# check version
node --version
```

You also need to enable `pnpm`.
```sh
sudo corepack enable
corepack prepare pnpm@latest --activate

# check version
pnpm --version
```

### PostgreSQL and PGroonga

PostgreSQL install instructions can be found at [this page](https://www.postgresql.org/download/).

```sh
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb https://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt $(lsb_release -cs)-pgdg main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list'
wget --quiet -O - https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt update
sudo apt install postgresql-16

sudo systemctl enable --now postgresql

# check version
psql --version
```

PGroonga install instructions can be found at [this page](https://pgroonga.github.io/install/).

```sh
wget "https://apache.jfrog.io/artifactory/arrow/$(lsb_release --id --short | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z')/apache-arrow-apt-source-latest-$(lsb_release --codename --short).deb"
sudo apt install "./apache-arrow-apt-source-latest-$(lsb_release --codename --short).deb"
wget "https://packages.groonga.org/debian/groonga-apt-source-latest-$(lsb_release --codename --short).deb"

sudo apt update
sudo apt install postgresql-16-pgdg-pgroonga

rm "apache-arrow-apt-source-latest-$(lsb_release --codename --short).deb" "groonga-apt-source-latest-$(lsb_release --codename --short).deb"
```

### Redis

Instructions can be found at [this page](https://redis.io/docs/install/install-redis/).

```sh
curl -fsSL https://packages.redis.io/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/redis-archive-keyring.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/redis-archive-keyring.gpg] https://packages.redis.io/deb $(lsb_release -cs) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/redis.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install redis

sudo systemctl enable --now redis-server

# check version
redis-cli --version
```

### FFmpeg

```sh
sudo apt install ffmpeg
```

## 2. Set up a database

1. Create a database user
    ```sh
    sudo -u postgres createuser --no-createdb --no-createrole --no-superuser --encrypted --pwprompt firefish
    ```
    If you forgot the password you typed, you can reset it by executing `sudo -u postgres psql -c "ALTER USER firefish PASSWORD 'password';"`.
2. Create a database
    ```sh
    sudo -u postgres createdb --encoding='UTF8' --owner=firefish firefish_db
    ```
3. Enable PGronnga extension
    ```sh
    sudo -u postgres psql --command='CREATE EXTENSION pgroonga;' --dbname=firefish_db
    ```

## 3. Configure Firefish

1. Create an user for Firefish and switch user
   ```sh
   sudo useradd --create-home --user-group --shell /bin/bash firefish
   sudo su --login firefish
   
   # check the current working directory
   # the result should be /home/firefish
   pwd
   ```
1. Install Rust toolchain

    Instructions can be found at [this page](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install).
    
    ```sh
    curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
    . "${HOME}/.cargo/env"
    
    # check version
    cargo --version
    ```
3. Clone the Firefish repository
    ```sh
    git clone --branch=main https://firefish.dev/firefish/firefish.git
    ```
1. Copy and edit the config file
    ```sh
    cd firefish
    cp .config/example.yml .config/default.yml
    nano .config/default.yml
    ```

    ```yaml
    url: https://your-server-domain.example.com  # change here
    port: 3000
    
    db:
      host: localhost
      port: 5432
      db: firefish_db
      user: firefish
      pass: your-database-password  # and here
    ```

## 4. Build Firefish

1. Build
    ```sh
    pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
    NODE_ENV=production NODE_OPTIONS='--max-old-space-size=3072' pnpm run build
    ```
1. Execute database migrations
    ```sh
    pnpm run migrate
    ```
1. Logout from `firefish` user
    ```sh
    exit
    ```

## 5. Preparation for publishing a server

### 1. Set up a firewall

To expose your server securely, you may want to set up a firewall. We use [ufw](https://launchpad.net/ufw) in this instruction.

```sh
sudo apt install ufw
# if you use SSH
# SSH_PORT=22
# sudo ufw limit "${SSH_PORT}/tcp"
sudo ufw default deny
sudo ufw allow 80
sudo ufw allow 443
sudo ufw --force enable

# check status
sudo ufw status
```

### 2. Set up a reverse proxy

In this instruction, we use [Caddy](https://caddyserver.com/) to make the Firefish server accesible from internet. However, you can also use [Nginx](https://nginx.org/en/) if you want ([example Nginx config file](../firefish.nginx.conf)).

1. Install Caddy
    ```sh
    sudo apt install debian-keyring debian-archive-keyring apt-transport-https
    curl -1sLf 'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/caddy/stable/gpg.key' | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/caddy-stable-archive-keyring.gpg
    curl -1sLf 'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/caddy/stable/debian.deb.txt' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/caddy-stable.list
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install caddy

    # check version
    caddy version
    ```
1. Replace the config file
    ```sh
    sudo mv /etc/caddy/Caddyfile /etc/caddy/Caddyfile.bak
    sudo nano /etc/caddy/Caddyfile
    ```

    ```Caddyfile
    your-server-domain.example.com {
    	reverse_proxy http://127.0.0.1:3000
    
    	log {
    		output file /var/log/caddy/firefish.log
    	}
    }
    ```
1. Restart Caddy
    ```sh
    sudo systemctl restart caddy
    ```

## 6. Publish your Firefish server

1. Create a service file
    ```sh
    sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/firefish.service
    ```

    ```service
    [Unit]
    Description=Firefish daemon
    Requires=redis.service caddy.service postgresql.service
    After=redis.service caddy.service postgresql.service network-online.target

    [Service]
    Type=simple
    User=firefish
    Group=firefish
    UMask=0027
    ExecStart=/usr/bin/pnpm run start
    WorkingDirectory=/home/firefish/firefish
    Environment="NODE_ENV=production"
    Environment="npm_config_cache=/tmp"
		Environment="NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=3072"
    # uncomment the following line if you use jemalloc (note that the path varies on different environments)
    # Environment="LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libjemalloc.so.2"
    StandardOutput=journal
    StandardError=journal
    SyslogIdentifier=firefish
    TimeoutSec=60
    Restart=always

    ProtectClock=true
    ProtectControlGroups=true
    ProtectHostname=true
    ProtectKernelTunables=true
    ProtectKernelModules=true

    SystemCallFilter=~@chown @clock @cpu-emulation @debug @ipc @keyring @memlock @module @mount @obsolete @privileged @raw-io @reboot @resources @setuid @swap
    SystemCallFilter=capset pipe pipe2 setpriority

    [Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target
    ```
1. Start Firefish
    ```sh
    sudo systemctl enable --now firefish
    ```

## Upgrading

Please refer to the [upgrade instruction](./upgrade.md). Be sure to switch to `firefish` user and go to the Firefish directory before executing the `git` command:

```sh
sudo su --login firefish
cd ~/firefish
```

## Customize

- To add custom CSS for all users, edit `./custom/assets/instance.css`.
- To add static assets (such as images for the splash screen), place them in the `./custom/assets/` directory. They'll then be available on `https://yourserver.tld/static-assets/filename.ext`.
- To add custom locales, place them in the `./custom/locales/` directory. If you name your custom locale the same as an existing locale, it will overwrite it. If you give it a unique name, it will be added to the list. Also make sure that the first part of the filename matches the locale you're basing it on. (Example: `en-FOO.yml`)
- To add custom error images, place them in the `./custom/assets/badges` directory, replacing the files already there.
- To add custom sounds, place only mp3 files in the `./custom/assets/sounds` directory.
- To update custom assets without rebuilding, just run `pnpm run gulp`.
- To block ChatGPT, CommonCrawl, or other crawlers from indexing your instance, uncomment the respective rules in `./custom/robots.txt`.

## Tips & Tricks

- When editing the config file, please don't fill out the settings at the bottom. They're designed *only* for managed hosting, not self hosting. Those settings are much better off being set in Firefish's control panel.
- Port 3000 (used in the default config) might be already used on your server for something else. To find an open port for Firefish, run `for p in {3000..4000}; do ss -tlnH | tr -s ' ' | cut -d" " -sf4 | grep -q "${p}$" || echo "${p}"; done | head -n 1`. Replace 3000 with the minimum port and 4000 with the maximum port if you need it.
- We'd recommend you use a S3 Bucket/CDN for Object Storage, especially if you use containers.
- When using object storage, setting a proper `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` response header is highly recommended.
- We'd recommend against using CloudFlare, but if you do, make sure to turn code minification off.
- For push notifications, run `npx web-push generate-vapid-keys`, then put the public and private keys into Control Panel > General > ServiceWorker.
- For translations, make a [DeepL](https://deepl.com) account and generate an API key, then put it into Control Panel > General > DeepL Translation.
- To add another admin account:
  - Go to the user's page > 3 Dots > About > Moderation > turn on "Moderator"
  - Go back to Overview > click the clipboard icon next to the ID
  - Run `psql -d firefish` (or whatever the database name is)
  - Run `UPDATE "user" SET "isAdmin" = true WHERE id='999999';` (replace `999999` with the copied ID)
  - Restart your Firefish server
