# Server
|
|
|
|
The server section configures and tunes the http server module Authelia uses.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
server:
|
|
host: 0.0.0.0
|
|
port: 9091
|
|
path: ""
|
|
read_buffer_size: 4096
|
|
write_buffer_size: 4096
|
|
enable_pprof: false
|
|
enable_expvars: false
|
|
disable_healthcheck: false
|
|
tls:
|
|
key: ""
|
|
certificate: ""
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Options
|
|
|
|
## host
|
|
<div markdown="1">
|
|
type: string
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
|
|
default: 0.0.0.0
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
|
|
required: no
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
Defines the address to listen on. See also [port](#port). Should typically be `0.0.0.0` or `127.0.0.1`, the former for
|
|
containerized environments and the later for daemonized environments like init.d and systemd.
|
|
|
|
Note: If utilising an IPv6 literal address it must be enclosed by square brackets and quoted:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
host: "[fd00:1111:2222:3333::1]"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### port
|
|
<div markdown="1">
|
|
type: integer
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
|
|
default: 9091
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
|
|
required: no
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
Defines the port to listen on. See also [host](#host).
|
|
|
|
### path
|
|
<div markdown="1">
|
|
type: string
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
|
|
default: ""
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
|
|
required: no
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
Authelia by default is served from the root `/` location, either via its own domain or subdomain.
|
|
|
|
Modifying this setting will allow you to serve Authelia out from a specified base path. Please note
|
|
that currently only a single level path is supported meaning slashes are not allowed, and only
|
|
alphanumeric characters are supported.
|
|
|
|
Example: https://auth.example.com/, https://example.com/
|
|
```yaml
|
|
server:
|
|
path: ""
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Example: https://auth.example.com/authelia/, https://example.com/authelia/
|
|
```yaml
|
|
server:
|
|
path: authelia
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### read_buffer_size
|
|
<div markdown="1">
|
|
type: integer
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
|
|
default: 4096
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
|
|
required: no
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
Configures the maximum request size. The default of 4096 is generally sufficient for most use cases.
|
|
|
|
### write_buffer_size
|
|
<div markdown="1">
|
|
type: integer
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
|
|
default: 4096
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
|
|
required: no
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
Configures the maximum response size. The default of 4096 is generally sufficient for most use cases.
|
|
|
|
### enable_pprof
|
|
<div markdown="1">
|
|
type: boolean
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
|
|
default: false
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
|
|
required: no
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
Enables the go pprof endpoints.
|
|
|
|
### enable_expvars
|
|
<div markdown="1">
|
|
type: boolean
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
|
|
default: false
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
|
|
required: no
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
Enables the go expvars endpoints.
|
|
|
|
### disable_healthcheck
|
|
<div markdown="1">
|
|
type: boolean
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
|
|
default: false
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
|
|
required: no
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-green }
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
On startup Authelia checks for the existence of /app/healthcheck.sh and /app/.healthcheck.env and if both of these exist
|
|
it writes the configuration vars for the healthcheck to the /app/.healthcheck.env file. In instances where this is not
|
|
desirable it's possible to disable these interactions entirely.
|
|
|
|
An example situation where this is the case is in Kubernetes when set security policies that prevent writing to the
|
|
ephemeral storage of a container or just don't want to enable the internal health check.
|
|
|
|
### tls
|
|
|
|
Authelia typically listens for plain unencrypted connections. This is by design as most environments allow to
|
|
security on lower areas of the OSI model. However it required, if you specify both the [tls key](#key) and
|
|
[tls certificate](#certificate) options, Authelia will listen for TLS connections.
|
|
|
|
#### key
|
|
<div markdown="1">
|
|
type: string (path)
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
|
|
default: ""
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
|
|
required: situational
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-yellow }
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
The path to the private key for TLS connections. Must be in DER base64/PEM format.
|
|
|
|
#### certificate
|
|
<div markdown="1">
|
|
type: string (path)
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-purple }
|
|
default: ""
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-blue }
|
|
required: situational
|
|
{: .label .label-config .label-yellow }
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
The path to the public certificate for TLS connections. Must be in DER base64/PEM format.
|
|
|
|
## Additional Notes
|
|
|
|
### Buffer Sizes
|
|
|
|
The read and write buffer sizes generally should be the same. This is because when Authelia verifies
|
|
if the user is authorized to visit a URL, it also sends back nearly the same size response as the request. However
|
|
you're able to tune these individually depending on your needs.
