.SH "NAME"
ejabberd.yml \- main configuration file for ejabberd\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
ejabberd\&.yml
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
The configuration file is written in YAML language\&.
.if n \{\
.sp
.\}
.RS 4
.it 1 an-trap
.nr an-no-space-flag 1
.nr an-break-flag 1
.br
.ps +1
\fBWarning\fR
.ps -1
.br
.sp
YAML is indentation sensitive, so make sure you respect indentation, or otherwise you will get pretty cryptic configuration errors\&.
.sp .5v
.RE
.sp
Logically, configuration options are split into 3 main categories: \fIModules\fR, \fIListeners\fR and everything else called \fITop Level\fR options\&. Thus this document is split into 3 main chapters describing each category separately\&. So, the contents of ejabberd\&.yml will typically look like this:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
hosts:
\- example\&.com
\- domain\&.tld
loglevel: info
\&.\&.\&.
listen:
\-
port: 5222
module: ejabberd_c2s
\&.\&.\&.
modules:
mod_roster: {}
\&.\&.\&.
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.sp
Any configuration error (such as syntax error, unknown option or invalid option value) is fatal in the sense that ejabberd will refuse to load the whole configuration file and will not start or will abort configuration reload\&.
.sp
All options can be changed in runtime by running \fIejabberdctl reload\-config\fR command\&. Configuration reload is atomic: either all options are accepted and applied simultaneously or the new configuration is refused without any impact on currently running configuration\&.
.sp
Some options can be specified for particular virtual host(s) only using \fIhost_config\fR or \fIappend_host_config\fR options\&. Such options are called \fIlocal\fR\&. Examples are \fImodules\fR, \fIauth_method\fR and \fIdefault_db\fR\&. The options that cannot be defined per virtual host are called \fIglobal\fR\&. Examples are \fIloglevel\fR, \fIcertfiles\fR and \fIlisten\fR\&. It is a configuration mistake to put \fIglobal\fR options under \fIhost_config\fR or \fIappend_host_config\fR section \- ejabberd will refuse to load such configuration\&.
.sp
It is not recommended to write ejabberd\&.yml from scratch\&. Instead it is better to start from "default" configuration file available at https://github\&.com/processone/ejabberd/blob/21\&.12/ejabberd\&.yml\&.example\&. Once you get ejabberd running you can start changing configuration options to meet your requirements\&.
.sp
Note that this document is intended to provide comprehensive description of all configuration options that can be consulted to understand the meaning of a particular option, its format and possible values\&. It will be quite hard to understand how to configure ejabberd by reading this document only \- for this purpose the reader is recommended to read online Configuration Guide available at https://docs\&.ejabberd\&.im/admin/configuration\&.
.SH "TOP LEVEL OPTIONS"
.sp
This section describes top level options of ejabberd\&.
.PP
\fBaccess_rules\fR: \fI{AccessName: {allow|deny: ACLRules|ACLName}}\fR
.RS 4
The option specifies access rules\&. Each access rule is assigned a name that can be referenced from other parts of the configuration file (mostly from
\fIaccess\fR
options of ejabberd modules)\&. Each rule definition may contain arbitrary number of
\fIallow\fR
or
\fIdeny\fR
sections, and each section may contain any number of ACL rules (see
\fIacl\fR
option)\&. There are no access rules defined by default\&.
.sp
\fBExample\fR:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4

.RE
.PP
\fBacl\fR: \fI{ACLName: {ACLType: ACLValue}}\fR
.RS 4
The option defines access control lists: named sets of rules which are used to match against different targets (such as a JID or an IP address)\&. Every set of rules has name
\fIACLName\fR: it can be any string except
\fIall\fR
or
\fInone\fR
(those are predefined names for the rules that match all or nothing respectively)\&. The name
\fIACLName\fR
can be referenced from other parts of the configuration file, for example in
\fIaccess_rules\fR
option\&. The rules of
\fIACLName\fR
are represented by mapping
\fI{ACLType: ACLValue}\fR\&. These can be one of the following:

This is an experimental option\&. Enabling this option will make

not use the former spool table for storing MucSub offline messages, but will use the archive table instead\&. This use of the archive table is cleaner and it makes it possible for clients to slowly drop the former offline use case and rely on message archive instead\&. It also further reduces the storage required when you enabled MucSub\&. Enabling this option has a known drawback for the moment: most of flexible message retrieval queries don\(cqt work (those that allow retrieval/deletion of messages by id), but this specification is not widely used\&.

This module enables you to create shared roster groups: groups of accounts that can see members from (other) groups in their rosters\&.

The big advantages of this feature are that end users do not need to manually add all users to their rosters, and that they cannot permanently delete users from the shared roster groups\&. A shared roster group can have members from any XMPP server, but the presence will only be available from and to members of the same virtual host where the group is created\&. It still allows the users to have / add their own contacts, as it does not replace the standard roster\&. Instead, the shared roster contacts are merged to the relevant users at retrieval time\&.

.SS "mod_vcard_xupdate"
.sp
The user\(cqs client can store an avatar in the user vCard\&. The vCard\-Based Avatars protocol (XEP\-0153) provides a method for clients to inform the contacts what is the avatar hash value\&. However, simple or small clients may not implement that protocol\&.
.sp
If this module is enabled, all the outgoing client presence stanzas get automatically the avatar hash on behalf of the client\&. So, the contacts receive the presence stanzas with the \fIUpdate Data\fR described in XEP\-0153 as if the client would had inserted it itself\&. If the client had already included such element in the presence stanza, it is replaced with the element generated by ejabberd\&.
.sp
By enabling this module, each vCard modification produces a hash recalculation, and each presence sent by a client produces hash retrieval and a presence stanza rewrite\&. For this reason, enabling this module will introduce a computational overhead in servers with clients that change frequently their presence\&. However, the overhead is significantly reduced by the use of caching, so you probably don\(cqt want to set \fIuse_cache\fR to \fIfalse\fR\&.
.sp
The module depends on \fImod_vcard\fR\&.

Nowadays XEP\-0153 is used mostly as "read\-only", i\&.e\&. modern clients don\(cqt publish their avatars inside vCards\&. Thus in the majority of cases the module is only used along with \fImod_avatar\fR for providing backward compatibility\&.
