This patch refactors gun pooling to use Elixir process registry and simplifies adapter option insertion. Having the pool use process registry instead of a GenServer has a number of advantages: - Simpler code: the initial implementation adds about half the lines of code it deletes - Concurrency: unlike a GenServer, ETS-based registry can handle multiple checkout/checkin requests at the same time - Precise and easy idle connection clousure: current proposal for closing idle connections in the GenServer-based pool needs to filter through all connections once a minute and compare their last active time with closing time. With Elixir process registry this can be done by just using `Process.send_after`/`Process.cancel_timer` in the worker process. - Lower memory footprint: In my tests `gun-memory-leak` branch uses about 290mb on peak load (250 connections) and 235mb on idle (5-10 connections). Registry-based pool uses 210mb on idle and 240mb on peak load |

About
Pleroma is a microblogging server software that can federate (= exchange messages with) other servers that support ActivityPub. What that means is that you can host a server for yourself or your friends and stay in control of your online identity, but still exchange messages with people on larger servers. Pleroma will federate with all servers that implement ActivityPub, like Friendica, GNU Social, Hubzilla, Mastodon, Misskey, Peertube, and Pixelfed.
Pleroma is written in Elixir and uses PostgresSQL for data storage. It's efficient enough to be ran on low-power devices like Raspberry Pi (though we wouldn't recommend storing the database on the internal SD card ;) but can scale well when ran on more powerful hardware (albeit only single-node for now).
For clients it supports the Mastodon client API with Pleroma extensions (see the API section on https://docs-develop.pleroma.social).
Installation
OTP releases (Recommended)
If you are running Linux (glibc or musl) on x86/arm, the recommended way to install Pleroma is by using OTP releases. OTP releases are as close as you can get to binary releases with Erlang/Elixir. The release is self-contained, and provides everything needed to boot it. The installation instructions are available here.
From Source
If your platform is not supported, or you just want to be able to edit the source code easily, you may install Pleroma from source.
- Debian-based
- Debian-based (jp)
- Alpine Linux
- Arch Linux
- Gentoo Linux
- NetBSD
- OpenBSD
- OpenBSD (fi)
- CentOS 7
OS/Distro packages
Currently Pleroma is not packaged by any OS/Distros, but if you want to package it for one, we can guide you through the process on our community channels. If you want to change default options in your Pleroma package, please discuss it with us first.
Docker
While we don’t provide docker files, other people have written very good ones. Take a look at https://github.com/angristan/docker-pleroma or https://glitch.sh/sn0w/pleroma-docker.
Compilation Troubleshooting
If you ever encounter compilation issues during the updating of Pleroma, you can try these commands and see if they fix things:
mix deps.clean --all
mix local.rebar
mix local.hex
rm -r _build
If you are not developing Pleroma, it is better to use the OTP release, which comes with everything precompiled.
