# Configuring the ntfy server
|
|
The ntfy server can be configured in three ways: using a config file (typically at `/etc/ntfy/server.yml`,
|
|
see [server.yml](https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/blob/main/server/server.yml)), via command line arguments
|
|
or using environment variables.
|
|
|
|
## Quick start
|
|
By default, simply running `ntfy serve` will start the server at port 80. No configuration needed. Batteries included 😀.
|
|
If everything works as it should, you'll see something like this:
|
|
```
|
|
$ ntfy serve
|
|
2021/11/30 19:59:08 Listening on :80
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can immediately start [publishing messages](publish.md), or subscribe via the [Android app](subscribe/phone.md),
|
|
[the web UI](subscribe/web.md), or simply via [curl or your favorite HTTP client](subscribe/api.md). To configure
|
|
the server further, check out the [config options table](#config-options) or simply type `ntfy serve --help` to
|
|
get a list of [command line options](#command-line-options).
|
|
|
|
## Example config
|
|
!!! info
|
|
Definitely check out the **[server.yml](https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/blob/main/server/server.yml)** file.
|
|
It contains examples and detailed descriptions of all the settings.
|
|
|
|
The most basic settings are `base-url` (the external URL of the ntfy server), the HTTP/HTTPS listen address (`listen-http`
|
|
and `listen-https`), and socket path (`listen-unix`). All the other things are additional features.
|
|
|
|
Here are a few working sample configs:
|
|
|
|
=== "server.yml (HTTP-only, with cache + attachments)"
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
base-url: "http://ntfy.example.com"
|
|
cache-file: "/var/cache/ntfy/cache.db"
|
|
attachment-cache-dir: "/var/cache/ntfy/attachments"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "server.yml (HTTP+HTTPS, with cache + attachments)"
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
base-url: "http://ntfy.example.com"
|
|
listen-http: ":80"
|
|
listen-https: ":443"
|
|
key-file: "/etc/letsencrypt/live/ntfy.example.com.key"
|
|
cert-file: "/etc/letsencrypt/live/ntfy.example.com.crt"
|
|
cache-file: "/var/cache/ntfy/cache.db"
|
|
attachment-cache-dir: "/var/cache/ntfy/attachments"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "server.yml (ntfy.sh config)"
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
# All the things: Behind a proxy, Firebase, cache, attachments,
|
|
# SMTP publishing & receiving
|
|
|
|
base-url: "https://ntfy.sh"
|
|
listen-http: "127.0.0.1:2586"
|
|
firebase-key-file: "/etc/ntfy/firebase.json"
|
|
cache-file: "/var/cache/ntfy/cache.db"
|
|
behind-proxy: true
|
|
attachment-cache-dir: "/var/cache/ntfy/attachments"
|
|
smtp-sender-addr: "email-smtp.us-east-2.amazonaws.com:587"
|
|
smtp-sender-user: "AKIDEADBEEFAFFE12345"
|
|
smtp-sender-pass: "Abd13Kf+sfAk2DzifjafldkThisIsNotARealKeyOMG."
|
|
smtp-sender-from: "ntfy@ntfy.sh"
|
|
smtp-server-listen: ":25"
|
|
smtp-server-domain: "ntfy.sh"
|
|
smtp-server-addr-prefix: "ntfy-"
|
|
keepalive-interval: "45s"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Message cache
|
|
If desired, ntfy can temporarily keep notifications in an in-memory or an on-disk cache. Caching messages for a short period
|
|
of time is important to allow [phones](subscribe/phone.md) and other devices with brittle Internet connections to be able to retrieve
|
|
notifications that they may have missed.
|
|
|
|
By default, ntfy keeps messages **in-memory for 12 hours**, which means that **cached messages do not survive an application
|
|
restart**. You can override this behavior using the following config settings:
|
|
|
|
* `cache-file`: if set, ntfy will store messages in a SQLite based cache (default is empty, which means in-memory cache).
|
|
**This is required if you'd like messages to be retained across restarts**.
|
|
* `cache-duration`: defines the duration for which messages are stored in the cache (default is `12h`).
|
|
|
|
You can also entirely disable the cache by setting `cache-duration` to `0`. When the cache is disabled, messages are only
|
|
passed on to the connected subscribers, but never stored on disk or even kept in memory longer than is needed to forward
|
|
the message to the subscribers.
|
|
|
|
Subscribers can retrieve cached messaging using the [`poll=1` parameter](subscribe/api.md#poll-for-messages), as well as the
|
|
[`since=` parameter](subscribe/api.md#fetch-cached-messages).
|
|
|
|
## Attachments
|
|
If desired, you may allow users to upload and [attach files to notifications](publish.md#attachments). To enable
|
|
this feature, you have to simply configure an attachment cache directory and a base URL (`attachment-cache-dir`, `base-url`).
|
|
Once these options are set and the directory is writable by the server user, you can upload attachments via PUT.
|
|
|
|
By default, attachments are stored in the disk-cache **for only 3 hours**. The main reason for this is to avoid legal issues
|
|
and such when hosting user controlled content. Typically, this is more than enough time for the user (or the auto download
|
|
feature) to download the file. The following config options are relevant to attachments:
|
|
|
|
* `base-url` is the root URL for the ntfy server; this is needed for the generated attachment URLs
|
|
* `attachment-cache-dir` is the cache directory for attached files
|
|
* `attachment-total-size-limit` is the size limit of the on-disk attachment cache (default: 5G)
|
|
* `attachment-file-size-limit` is the per-file attachment size limit (e.g. 300k, 2M, 100M, default: 15M)
|
|
* `attachment-expiry-duration` is the duration after which uploaded attachments will be deleted (e.g. 3h, 20h, default: 3h)
|
|
|
|
Here's an example config using mostly the defaults (except for the cache directory, which is empty by default):
|
|
|
|
=== "/etc/ntfy/server.yml (minimal)"
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
base-url: "https://ntfy.sh"
|
|
attachment-cache-dir: "/var/cache/ntfy/attachments"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "/etc/ntfy/server.yml (all options)"
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
base-url: "https://ntfy.sh"
|
|
attachment-cache-dir: "/var/cache/ntfy/attachments"
|
|
attachment-total-size-limit: "5G"
|
|
attachment-file-size-limit: "15M"
|
|
attachment-expiry-duration: "3h"
|
|
visitor-attachment-total-size-limit: "100M"
|
|
visitor-attachment-daily-bandwidth-limit: "500M"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Please also refer to the [rate limiting](#rate-limiting) settings below, specifically `visitor-attachment-total-size-limit`
|
|
and `visitor-attachment-daily-bandwidth-limit`. Setting these conservatively is necessary to avoid abuse.
|
|
|
|
## Access control
|
|
By default, the ntfy server is open for everyone, meaning **everyone can read and write to any topic** (this is how
|
|
ntfy.sh is configured). To restrict access to your own server, you can optionally configure authentication and authorization.
|
|
|
|
ntfy's auth is implemented with a simple [SQLite](https://www.sqlite.org/)-based backend. It implements two roles
|
|
(`user` and `admin`) and per-topic `read` and `write` permissions using an [access control list (ACL)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Access-control_list).
|
|
Access control entries can be applied to users as well as the special everyone user (`*`), which represents anonymous API access.
|
|
|
|
To set up auth, simply **configure the following two options**:
|
|
|
|
* `auth-file` is the user/access database; it is created automatically if it doesn't already exist; suggested
|
|
location `/var/lib/ntfy/user.db` (easiest if deb/rpm package is used)
|
|
* `auth-default-access` defines the default/fallback access if no access control entry is found; it can be
|
|
set to `read-write` (default), `read-only`, `write-only` or `deny-all`.
|
|
|
|
Once configured, you can use the `ntfy user` command to [add or modify users](#users-and-roles), and the `ntfy access` command
|
|
lets you [modify the access control list](#access-control-list-acl) for specific users and topic patterns. Both of these
|
|
commands **directly edit the auth database** (as defined in `auth-file`), so they only work on the server, and only if the user
|
|
accessing them has the right permissions.
|
|
|
|
### Users and roles
|
|
The `ntfy user` command allows you to add/remove/change users in the ntfy user database, as well as change
|
|
passwords or roles (`user` or `admin`). In practice, you'll often just create one admin
|
|
user with `ntfy user add --role=admin ...` and be done with all this (see [example below](#example-private-instance)).
|
|
|
|
**Roles:**
|
|
|
|
* Role `user` (default): Users with this role have no special permissions. Manage access using `ntfy access`
|
|
(see [below](#access-control-list-acl)).
|
|
* Role `admin`: Users with this role can read/write to all topics. Granular access control is not necessary.
|
|
|
|
**Example commands** (type `ntfy user --help` or `ntfy user COMMAND --help` for more details):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
ntfy user list # Shows list of users (alias: 'ntfy access')
|
|
ntfy user add phil # Add regular user phil
|
|
ntfy user add --role=admin phil # Add admin user phil
|
|
ntfy user del phil # Delete user phil
|
|
ntfy user change-pass phil # Change password for user phil
|
|
ntfy user change-role phil admin # Make user phil an admin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Access control list (ACL)
|
|
The access control list (ACL) **manages access to topics for non-admin users, and for anonymous access (`everyone`/`*`)**.
|
|
Each entry represents the access permissions for a user to a specific topic or topic pattern.
|
|
|
|
The ACL can be displayed or modified with the `ntfy access` command:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
ntfy access # Shows access control list (alias: 'ntfy user list')
|
|
ntfy access USERNAME # Shows access control entries for USERNAME
|
|
ntfy access USERNAME TOPIC PERMISSION # Allow/deny access for USERNAME to TOPIC
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A `USERNAME` is an existing user, as created with `ntfy user add` (see [users and roles](#users-and-roles)), or the
|
|
anonymous user `everyone` or `*`, which represents clients that access the API without username/password.
|
|
|
|
A `TOPIC` is either a specific topic name (e.g. `mytopic`, or `phil_alerts`), or a wildcard pattern that matches any
|
|
number of topics (e.g. `alerts_*` or `ben-*`). Only the wildcard character `*` is supported. It stands for zero to any
|
|
number of characters.
|
|
|
|
A `PERMISSION` is any of the following supported permissions:
|
|
|
|
* `read-write` (alias: `rw`): Allows [publishing messages](publish.md) to the given topic, as well as
|
|
[subscribing](subscribe/api.md) and reading messages
|
|
* `read-only` (aliases: `read`, `ro`): Allows only subscribing and reading messages, but not publishing to the topic
|
|
* `write-only` (aliases: `write`, `wo`): Allows only publishing to the topic, but not subscribing to it
|
|
* `deny` (alias: `none`): Allows neither publishing nor subscribing to a topic
|
|
|
|
**Example commands** (type `ntfy access --help` for more details):
|
|
```
|
|
ntfy access # Shows entire access control list
|
|
ntfy access phil # Shows access for user phil
|
|
ntfy access phil mytopic rw # Allow read-write access to mytopic for user phil
|
|
ntfy access everyone mytopic rw # Allow anonymous read-write access to mytopic
|
|
ntfy access everyone "up*" write # Allow anonymous write-only access to topics "up..."
|
|
ntfy access --reset # Reset entire access control list
|
|
ntfy access --reset phil # Reset all access for user phil
|
|
ntfy access --reset phil mytopic # Reset access for user phil and topic mytopic
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Example ACL:**
|
|
```
|
|
$ ntfy access
|
|
user phil (admin)
|
|
- read-write access to all topics (admin role)
|
|
user ben (user)
|
|
- read-write access to topic garagedoor
|
|
- read-write access to topic alerts*
|
|
- read-only access to topic furnace
|
|
user * (anonymous)
|
|
- read-only access to topic announcements
|
|
- read-only access to topic server-stats
|
|
- no access to any (other) topics (server config)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In this example, `phil` has the role `admin`, so he has read-write access to all topics (no ACL entries are necessary).
|
|
User `ben` has three topic-specific entries. He can read, but not write to topic `furnace`, and has read-write access
|
|
to topic `garagedoor` and all topics starting with the word `alerts` (wildcards). Clients that are not authenticated
|
|
(called `*`/`everyone`) only have read access to the `announcements` and `server-stats` topics.
|
|
|
|
### Example: Private instance
|
|
The easiest way to configure a private instance is to set `auth-default-access` to `deny-all` in the `server.yml`:
|
|
|
|
=== "/etc/ntfy/server.yml"
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
auth-file "/var/lib/ntfy/user.db"
|
|
auth-default-access: "deny-all"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After that, simply create an `admin` user:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ ntfy user add --role=admin phil
|
|
password: mypass
|
|
confirm: mypass
|
|
user phil added with role admin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once you've done that, you can publish and subscribe using [Basic Auth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication)
|
|
with the given username/password. Be sure to use HTTPS to avoid eavesdropping and exposing your password. Here's a simple example:
|
|
|
|
=== "Command line (curl)"
|
|
```
|
|
curl \
|
|
-u phil:mypass \
|
|
-d "Look ma, with auth" \
|
|
https://ntfy.example.com/mysecrets
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "ntfy CLI"
|
|
```
|
|
ntfy publish \
|
|
-u phil:mypass \
|
|
ntfy.example.com/mysecrets \
|
|
"Look ma, with auth"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "HTTP"
|
|
``` http
|
|
POST /mysecrets HTTP/1.1
|
|
Host: ntfy.example.com
|
|
Authorization: Basic cGhpbDpteXBhc3M=
|
|
|
|
Look ma, with auth
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "JavaScript"
|
|
``` javascript
|
|
fetch('https://ntfy.example.com/mysecrets', {
|
|
method: 'POST', // PUT works too
|
|
body: 'Look ma, with auth',
|
|
headers: {
|
|
'Authorization': 'Basic cGhpbDpteXBhc3M='
|
|
}
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "Go"
|
|
``` go
|
|
req, _ := http.NewRequest("POST", "https://ntfy.example.com/mysecrets",
|
|
strings.NewReader("Look ma, with auth"))
|
|
req.Header.Set("Authorization", "Basic cGhpbDpteXBhc3M=")
|
|
http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "Python"
|
|
``` python
|
|
requests.post("https://ntfy.example.com/mysecrets",
|
|
data="Look ma, with auth",
|
|
headers={
|
|
"Authorization": "Basic cGhpbDpteXBhc3M="
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "PHP"
|
|
``` php-inline
|
|
file_get_contents('https://ntfy.example.com/mysecrets', false, stream_context_create([
|
|
'http' => [
|
|
'method' => 'POST', // PUT also works
|
|
'header' =>
|
|
'Content-Type: text/plain\r\n' .
|
|
'Authorization: Basic cGhpbDpteXBhc3M=',
|
|
'content' => 'Look ma, with auth'
|
|
]
|
|
]));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## E-mail notifications
|
|
To allow forwarding messages via e-mail, you can configure an **SMTP server for outgoing messages**. Once configured,
|
|
you can set the `X-Email` header to [send messages via e-mail](publish.md#e-mail-notifications) (e.g.
|
|
`curl -d "hi there" -H "X-Email: phil@example.com" ntfy.sh/mytopic`).
|
|
|
|
As of today, only SMTP servers with PLAIN auth and STARTLS are supported. To enable e-mail sending, you must set the
|
|
following settings:
|
|
|
|
* `base-url` is the root URL for the ntfy server; this is needed for e-mail footer
|
|
* `smtp-sender-addr` is the hostname:port of the SMTP server
|
|
* `smtp-sender-user` and `smtp-sender-pass` are the username and password of the SMTP user
|
|
* `smtp-sender-from` is the e-mail address of the sender
|
|
|
|
Here's an example config using [Amazon SES](https://aws.amazon.com/ses/) for outgoing mail (this is how it is
|
|
configured for `ntfy.sh`):
|
|
|
|
=== "/etc/ntfy/server.yml"
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
base-url: "https://ntfy.sh"
|
|
smtp-sender-addr: "email-smtp.us-east-2.amazonaws.com:587"
|
|
smtp-sender-user: "AKIDEADBEEFAFFE12345"
|
|
smtp-sender-pass: "Abd13Kf+sfAk2DzifjafldkThisIsNotARealKeyOMG."
|
|
smtp-sender-from: "ntfy@ntfy.sh"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Please also refer to the [rate limiting](#rate-limiting) settings below, specifically `visitor-email-limit-burst`
|
|
and `visitor-email-limit-burst`. Setting these conservatively is necessary to avoid abuse.
|
|
|
|
## E-mail publishing
|
|
To allow publishing messages via e-mail, ntfy can run a lightweight **SMTP server for incoming messages**. Once configured,
|
|
users can [send emails to a topic e-mail address](publish.md#e-mail-publishing) (e.g. `mytopic@ntfy.sh` or
|
|
`myprefix-mytopic@ntfy.sh`) to publish messages to a topic. This is useful for e-mail based integrations such as for
|
|
statuspage.io (though these days most services also support webhooks and HTTP calls).
|
|
|
|
To configure the SMTP server, you must at least set `smtp-server-listen` and `smtp-server-domain`:
|
|
|
|
* `smtp-server-listen` defines the IP address and port the SMTP server will listen on, e.g. `:25` or `1.2.3.4:25`
|
|
* `smtp-server-domain` is the e-mail domain, e.g. `ntfy.sh` (must be identical to MX record, see below)
|
|
* `smtp-server-addr-prefix` is an optional prefix for the e-mail addresses to prevent spam. If set to `ntfy-`, for instance,
|
|
only e-mails to `ntfy-$topic@ntfy.sh` will be accepted. If this is not set, all emails to `$topic@ntfy.sh` will be
|
|
accepted (which may obviously be a spam problem).
|
|
|
|
Here's an example config (this is how it is configured for `ntfy.sh`):
|
|
|
|
=== "/etc/ntfy/server.yml"
|
|
``` yaml
|
|
smtp-server-listen: ":25"
|
|
smtp-server-domain: "ntfy.sh"
|
|
smtp-server-addr-prefix: "ntfy-"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In addition to configuring the ntfy server, you have to create two DNS records (an [MX record](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MX_record)
|
|
and a corresponding A record), so incoming mail will find its way to your server. Here's an example of how `ntfy.sh` is
|
|
configured (in [Amazon Route 53](https://aws.amazon.com/route53/)):
|
|
|
|
<figure markdown>
|
|
![DNS records for incoming mail](static/img/screenshot-email-publishing-dns.png){ width=600 }
|
|
<figcaption>DNS records for incoming mail</figcaption>
|
|
</figure>
|
|
|
|
You can check if everything is working correctly by sending an email as raw SMTP via `nc`. Create a text file, e.g.
|
|
`email.txt`
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
EHLO example.com
|
|
MAIL FROM: phil@example.com
|
|
RCPT TO: ntfy-mytopic@ntfy.sh
|
|
DATA
|
|
Subject: Email for you
|
|
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"
|
|
|
|
Hello from 🇩🇪
|
|
.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And then send the mail via `nc` like this. If you see any lines starting with `451`, those are errors from the
|
|
ntfy server. Read them carefully.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ cat email.txt | nc -N ntfy.sh 25
|
|
220 ntfy.sh ESMTP Service Ready
|
|
250-Hello example.com
|
|
...
|
|
250 2.0.0 Roger, accepting mail from <phil@example.com>
|
|
250 2.0.0 I'll make sure <ntfy-mytopic@ntfy.sh> gets this
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
As for the DNS setup, be sure to verify that `dig MX` and `dig A` are returning results similar to this:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ dig MX ntfy.sh +short
|
|
10 mx1.ntfy.sh.
|
|
$ dig A mx1.ntfy.sh +short
|
|
3.139.215.220
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Behind a proxy (TLS, etc.)
|
|
!!! warning
|
|
If you are running ntfy behind a proxy, you must set the `behind-proxy` flag. Otherwise, all visitors are
|
|
[rate limited](#rate-limiting) as if they are one.
|
|
|
|
It may be desirable to run ntfy behind a proxy (e.g. nginx, HAproxy or Apache), so you can provide TLS certificates
|
|
using Let's Encrypt using certbot, or simply because you'd like to share the ports (80/443) with other services.
|
|
Whatever your reasons may be, there are a few things to consider.
|
|
|
|
If you are running ntfy behind a proxy, you should set the `behind-proxy` flag. This will instruct the
|
|
[rate limiting](#rate-limiting) logic to use the `X-Forwarded-For` header as the primary identifier for a visitor,
|
|
as opposed to the remote IP address. If the `behind-proxy` flag is not set, all visitors will
|
|
be counted as one, because from the perspective of the ntfy server, they all share the proxy's IP address.
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
### TLS/SSL
|
|
ntfy supports HTTPS/TLS by setting the `listen-https` [config option](#config-options). However, if you
|
|
are behind a proxy, it is recommended that TLS/SSL termination is done by the proxy itself (see below).
|
|
|
|
I highly recommend using [certbot](https://certbot.eff.org/). I use it with the [dns-route53 plugin](https://certbot-dns-route53.readthedocs.io/en/stable/),
|
|
which lets you use [AWS Route 53](https://aws.amazon.com/route53/) as the challenge. That's much easier than using the
|
|
HTTP challenge. I've found [this guide](https://nandovieira.com/using-lets-encrypt-in-development-with-nginx-and-aws-route53) to
|
|
be incredibly helpful.
|
|
|
|
### nginx/Apache2/caddy
|
|
For your convenience, here's a working config that'll help configure things behind a proxy. Be sure to **enable WebSockets**
|
|
by forwarding the `Connection` and `Upgrade` headers accordingly.
|
|
|
|
In this example, ntfy runs on `:2586` and we proxy traffic to it. We also redirect HTTP to HTTPS for GET requests against a topic
|
|
or the root domain:
|
|
|
|
=== "nginx (/etc/nginx/sites-*/ntfy)"
|
|
```
|
|
server {
|
|
listen 80;
|
|
server_name ntfy.sh;
|
|
|
|
location / {
|
|
# Redirect HTTP to HTTPS, but only for GET topic addresses, since we want
|
|
# it to work with curl without the annoying https:// prefix
|
|
set $redirect_https "";
|
|
if ($request_method = GET) {
|
|
set $redirect_https "yes";
|
|
}
|
|
if ($request_uri ~* "^/([-_a-z0-9]{0,64}$|docs/|static/)") {
|
|
set $redirect_https "${redirect_https}yes";
|
|
}

## Firebase (FCM)
|
|
!!! info
|
|
Using Firebase is **optional** and only works if you modify and [build your own Android .apk](develop.md#android-app).
|
|
For a self-hosted instance, it's easier to just not bother with FCM.
|
|
|
|
[Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM)](https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging) is the Google approved way to send
|
|
push messages to Android devices. FCM is the only method that an Android app can receive messages without having to run a
|
|
[foreground service](https://developer.android.com/guide/components/foreground-services).
|
|
|
|
For the main host [ntfy.sh](https://ntfy.sh), the [ntfy Android app](subscribe/phone.md) uses Firebase to send messages
|
|
to the device. For other hosts, instant delivery is used and FCM is not involved.
|
|
|
|
To configure FCM for your self-hosted instance of the ntfy server, follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
1. Sign up for a [Firebase account](https://console.firebase.google.com/)
|
|
2. Create a Firebase app and download the key file (e.g. `myapp-firebase-adminsdk-...json`)
|
|
3. Place the key file in `/etc/ntfy`, set the `firebase-key-file` in `server.yml` accordingly and restart the ntfy server
|
|
4. Build your own Android .apk following [these instructions](develop.md#android-app)
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
```
|
|
# If set, also publish messages to a Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) topic for your app.
|
|
# This is optional and only required to support Android apps (which don't allow background services anymore).
|
|
#
|
|
firebase-key-file: "/etc/ntfy/ntfy-sh-firebase-adminsdk-ahnce-9f4d6f14b5.json"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Rate limiting
|
|
!!! info
|
|
Be aware that if you are running ntfy behind a proxy, you must set the `behind-proxy` flag.
|
|
Otherwise, all visitors are rate limited as if they are one.
|
|
|
|
By default, ntfy runs without authentication, so it is vitally important that we protect the server from abuse or overload.
|
|
There are various limits and rate limits in place that you can use to configure the server:
|
|
|
|
* **Global limit**: A global limit applies across all visitors (IPs, clients, users)
|
|
* **Visitor limit**: A visitor limit only applies to a certain visitor. A **visitor** is identified by its IP address
|
|
(or the `X-Forwarded-For` header if `behind-proxy` is set). All config options that start with the word `visitor` apply
|
|
only on a per-visitor basis.
|
|
|
|
During normal usage, you shouldn't encounter these limits at all, and even if you burst a few requests or emails
|
|
(e.g. when you reconnect after a connection drop), it shouldn't have any effect.
|
|
|
|
### General limits
|
|
Let's do the easy limits first:
|
|
|
|
* `global-topic-limit` defines the total number of topics before the server rejects new topics. It defaults to 15,000.
|
|
* `visitor-subscription-limit` is the number of subscriptions (open connections) per visitor. This value defaults to 30.
|
|
|
|
### Request limits
|
|
In addition to the limits above, there is a requests/second limit per visitor for all sensitive GET/PUT/POST requests.
|
|
This limit uses a [token bucket](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Token_bucket) (using Go's [rate package](https://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/time/rate)):
|
|
|
|
Each visitor has a bucket of 60 requests they can fire against the server (defined by `visitor-request-limit-burst`).
|
|
After the 60, new requests will encounter a `429 Too Many Requests` response. The visitor request bucket is refilled at a rate of one
|
|
request every 5s (defined by `visitor-request-limit-replenish`)
|
|
|
|
* `visitor-request-limit-burst` is the initial bucket of requests each visitor has. This defaults to 60.
|
|
* `visitor-request-limit-replenish` is the rate at which the bucket is refilled (one request per x). Defaults to 5s.
|
|
* `visitor-request-limit-exempt-hosts` is a comma-separated list of hostnames and IPs to be exempt from request rate
|
|
limiting; hostnames are resolved at the time the server is started. Defaults to an empty list.
|
|
|
|
### Attachment limits
|
|
Aside from the global file size and total attachment cache limits (see [above](#attachments)), there are two relevant
|
|
per-visitor limits:
|
|
|
|
* `visitor-attachment-total-size-limit` is the total storage limit used for attachments per visitor. It defaults to 100M.
|
|
The per-visitor storage is automatically decreased as attachments expire. External attachments (attached via `X-Attach`,
|
|
see [publishing docs](publish.md#attachments)) do not count here.
|
|
* `visitor-attachment-daily-bandwidth-limit` is the total daily attachment download/upload bandwidth limit per visitor,
|
|
including PUT and GET requests. This is to protect your precious bandwidth from abuse, since egress costs money in
|
|
most cloud providers. This defaults to 500M.
|
|
|
|
### E-mail limits
|
|
Similarly to the request limit, there is also an e-mail limit (only relevant if [e-mail notifications](#e-mail-notifications)
|
|
are enabled):
|
|
|
|
* `visitor-email-limit-burst` is the initial bucket of emails each visitor has. This defaults to 16.
|
|
* `visitor-email-limit-replenish` is the rate at which the bucket is refilled (one email per x). Defaults to 1h.
|
|
|
|
## Tuning for scale
|
|
If you're running ntfy for your home server, you probably don't need to worry about scale at all. In its default config,
|
|
if it's not behind a proxy, the ntfy server can keep about **as many connections as the open file limit allows**.
|
|
This limit is typically called `nofile`. Other than that, RAM and CPU are obviously relevant. You may also want to check
|
|
out [this discussion on Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/golang/comments/r9u4ee/how_many_actively_connected_http_clients_can_a_go/).
|
|
|
|
Depending on *how you run it*, here are a few limits that are relevant:
|
|
|
|
### For systemd services
|
|
If you're running ntfy in a systemd service (e.g. for .deb/.rpm packages), the main limiting factor is the
|
|
`LimitNOFILE` setting in the systemd unit. The default open files limit for `ntfy.service` is 10,000. You can override it
|
|
by creating a `/etc/systemd/system/ntfy.service.d/override.conf` file. As far as I can tell, `/etc/security/limits.conf`
|
|
is not relevant.
|
|
|
|
=== "/etc/systemd/system/ntfy.service.d/override.conf"
|
|
```
|
|
# Allow 20,000 ntfy connections (and give room for other file handles)
|
|
[Service]
|
|
LimitNOFILE=20500
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Outside of systemd
|
|
If you're running outside systemd, you may want to adjust your `/etc/security/limits.conf` file to
|
|
increase the `nofile` setting. Here's an example that increases the limit to 5,000. You can find out the current setting
|
|
by running `ulimit -n`, or manually override it temporarily by running `ulimit -n 50000`.
|
|
|
|
=== "/etc/security/limits.conf"
|
|
```
|
|
# Increase open files limit globally
|
|
* hard nofile 20500
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Proxy limits (nginx, Apache2)
|
|
If you are running [behind a proxy](#behind-a-proxy-tls-etc) (e.g. nginx, Apache), the open files limit of the proxy is also
|
|
relevant. So if your proxy runs inside of systemd, increase the limits in systemd for the proxy. Typically, the proxy
|
|
open files limit has to be **double the number of how many connections you'd like to support**, because the proxy has
|
|
to maintain the client connection and the connection to ntfy.
|
|
|
|
=== "/etc/nginx/nginx.conf"
|
|
```
|
|
events {
|
|
# Allow 40,000 proxy connections (2x of the desired ntfy connection count;
|
|
# and give room for other file handles)
|
|
worker_connections 40500;
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "/etc/systemd/system/nginx.service.d/override.conf"
|
|
```
|
|
# Allow 40,000 proxy connections (2x of the desired ntfy connection count;
|
|
# and give room for other file handles)
|
|
[Service]
|
|
LimitNOFILE=40500
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Banning bad actors (fail2ban)
|
|
If you put stuff on the Internet, bad actors will try to break them or break in. [fail2ban](https://www.fail2ban.org/)
|
|
and nginx's [ngx_http_limit_req_module module](http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_limit_req_module.html) can be used
|
|
to ban client IPs if they misbehave. This is on top of the [rate limiting](#rate-limiting) inside the ntfy server.
|
|
|
|
Here's an example for how ntfy.sh is configured, following the instructions from two tutorials ([here](https://easyengine.io/tutorials/nginx/fail2ban/)
|
|
and [here](https://easyengine.io/tutorials/nginx/block-wp-login-php-bruteforce-attack/)):
|
|
|
|
=== "/etc/nginx/nginx.conf"
|
|
```
|
|
http {
|
|
limit_req_zone $binary_remote_addr zone=one:10m rate=1r/s;
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/ntfy.sh"
|
|
```
|
|
# For each server/location block
|
|
server {
|
|
location / {
|
|
limit_req zone=one burst=1000 nodelay;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "/etc/fail2ban/filter.d/nginx-req-limit.conf"
|
|
```
|
|
[Definition]
|
|
failregex = limiting requests, excess:.* by zone.*client: <HOST>
|
|
ignoreregex =
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "/etc/fail2ban/jail.local"
|
|
```
|
|
[nginx-req-limit]
|
|
enabled = true
|
|
filter = nginx-req-limit
|
|
action = iptables-multiport[name=ReqLimit, port="http,https", protocol=tcp]
|
|
logpath = /var/log/nginx/error.log
|
|
findtime = 600
|
|
bantime = 7200
|
|
maxretry = 10
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Config options
|
|
Each config option can be set in the config file `/etc/ntfy/server.yml` (e.g. `listen-http: :80`) or as a
|
|
CLI option (e.g. `--listen-http :80`. Here's a list of all available options. Alternatively, you can set an environment
|
|
variable before running the `ntfy` command (e.g. `export NTFY_LISTEN_HTTP=:80`).
|
|
|
|
!!! info
|
|
All config options can also be defined in the `server.yml` file using underscores instead of dashes, e.g.
|
|
`cache_duration` and `cache-duration` are both supported. This is to support stricter YAML parsers that do
|
|
not support dashes.
|
|
|
|
| Config option | Env variable | Format | Default | Description |
|
|
|--------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------|--------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|
|
| `listen-https` | `NTFY_LISTEN_HTTPS` | `[host]:port` | - | Listen address for the HTTPS web server. If set, you also need to set `key-file` and `cert-file`. |
|
|
| `listen-unix` | `NTFY_LISTEN_UNIX` | *filename* | - | Path to a Unix socket to listen on |
|
|
| `key-file` | `NTFY_KEY_FILE` | *filename* | - | HTTPS/TLS private key file, only used if `listen-https` is set. |

|
|
| `cache-file` | `NTFY_CACHE_FILE` | *filename* | - | If set, messages are cached in a local SQLite database instead of only in-memory. This allows for service restarts without losing messages in support of the since= parameter. See [message cache](#message-cache). |
|
|
| `cache-duration` | `NTFY_CACHE_DURATION` | *duration* | 12h | Duration for which messages will be buffered before they are deleted. This is required to support the `since=...` and `poll=1` parameter. Set this to `0` to disable the cache entirely. |
|
|
| `auth-file` | `NTFY_AUTH_FILE` | *filename* | - | Auth database file used for access control. If set, enables authentication and access control. See [access control](#access-control). |

|
|
| `attachment-cache-dir` | `NTFY_ATTACHMENT_CACHE_DIR` | *directory* | - | Cache directory for attached files. To enable attachments, this has to be set. |
|
|
| `attachment-total-size-limit` | `NTFY_ATTACHMENT_TOTAL_SIZE_LIMIT` | *size* | 5G | Limit of the on-disk attachment cache directory. If the limits is exceeded, new attachments will be rejected. |
|
|
| `attachment-file-size-limit` | `NTFY_ATTACHMENT_FILE_SIZE_LIMIT` | *size* | 15M | Per-file attachment size limit (e.g. 300k, 2M, 100M). Larger attachment will be rejected. |
|
|
| `attachment-expiry-duration` | `NTFY_ATTACHMENT_EXPIRY_DURATION` | *duration* | 3h | Duration after which uploaded attachments will be deleted (e.g. 3h, 20h). Strongly affects `visitor-attachment-total-size-limit`. |
|
|
| `smtp-sender-addr` | `NTFY_SMTP_SENDER_ADDR` | `host:port` | - | SMTP server address to allow email sending |

|
|
| `smtp-server-listen` | `NTFY_SMTP_SERVER_LISTEN` | `[ip]:port` | - | Defines the IP address and port the SMTP server will listen on, e.g. `:25` or `1.2.3.4:25` |
|
|
| `smtp-server-domain` | `NTFY_SMTP_SERVER_DOMAIN` | *domain name* | - | SMTP server e-mail domain, e.g. `ntfy.sh` |
