This will be used as the file encryption key (\"file key\").</li> <li>Encrypt the file key with the user provided password. We first use a secure hash algorithm to derive a key/iv pair from the password, then use AES 256/CBC to encrypt the file key. The result is called the \"encrypted file key\".

So it's critical to choose a relatively costly algorithm to prevent brute-force guessing for the password.</p> <p>Before version 12, a fixed secure hash algorithm (PBKDF2-SHA256 with 1000 iterations) is used, which is far from secure for today's standard.</p> <p>Since Seafile server version 12, we allow the admin to choose proper secure hash algorithms. Currently two hash algorithms are supported.</p> <ul> <li>PBKDF2: The only available parameter is the number of iterations. You need to increase the the number of iterations over time, as GPUs are more and more used for such calculation. The default number of iterations is 1000. As of 2023, the recommended iterations is 600,000.</li> <li>Argon2id: Secure hash algorithm that has high cost even for GPUs. There are 3 parameters that can be set: time cost, memory cost, and parallelism degree. The parameters are seperated by commas, e.g. \"2,102400,8\", which the default parameters used in Seafile.

When you create the library, a \"magic token\" is derived from the password and library id. This token is stored with the library on the server side. The client use this token to check whether your password is correct before you sync the library. The magic token is generated by the secure hash algorithm chosen when the library was created.</p> <p>For maximum security, the plain-text password won't be saved on the client side, too.

If you have large libraries on the server, this can cause \"internal server error\" returned to the client.

You can also manually change <code>seafile-db.RoleQuota</code>, if you want to see the effect immediately.</p> </li> <li> <p><code>can_add_public_repo</code> is to set whether a role can create a public library (shared by all login users), default is <code>False</code>. </p> <p>Since version 11.0.9 pro, <code>can_share_repo</code> is added to limit users' ability to share a library</p> <p>The <code>can_add_public_repo</code> option will not take effect if you configure global <code>CLOUD_MODE = True</code></p> </li> <li> <p><code>can_create_wiki</code> and <code>can_publish_wiki</code> are used to control whether a role can create a Wiki and publish a Wiki. (A published Wiki have a special URL and can be visited by anonymous users)</p> </li> <li> <p><code>storage_ids</code> permission is used for assigning storage backends to users with specific role. More details can be found in multiple storage backends.</p> </li> <li> <p><code>upload_rate_limit</code> and <code>download_rate_limit</code> are added to limit upload and download speed for users with different roles.</p> <p>Note</p> <p>After configured the rate limit, run the following command in the <code>seafile-server-latest</code> directory to make the configuration take effect:</p> <pre><code>./seahub.sh python-env python3 seahub/manage.py set_user_role_upload_download_rate_limit\n</code></pre> </li> <li> <p><code>can_drag_drop_folder_to_sync</code>: allow or deny user to sync folder by draging and droping</p> </li> <li> <p><code>can_export_files_via_mobile_client</code>: allow or deny user to export files in using mobile client</p> </li> </ul> <p>Seafile comes with two build-in roles <code>default</code> and <code>guest</code>, a default user is a normal user with permissions as followings:</p> <pre><code>    'default': {\n        'can_add_repo': True,\n        'can_share_repo': True,\n        'can_add_group': True,\n        'can_view_org': True,\n        'can_add_public_repo': False,\n        'can_use_global_address_book': True,\n        'can_generate_share_link': True,\n        'can_generate_upload_link': True,\n        'can_send_share_link_mail': True,\n        'can_invite_guest': False,\n        'can_drag_drop_folder_to_sync': True,\n        'can_connect_with_android_clients': True,\n        'can_connect_with_ios_clients': True,\n        'can_connect_with_desktop_clients': True,\n        'can_export_files_via_mobile_client': True,\n        'storage_ids': [],\n        'role_quota': '',\n        'can_create_wiki': True,\n        'can_publish_wiki': True,\n        'upload_rate_limit': 0,  #

Seafile supports authentication via Shibboleth. It allows users from another organization to log in to Seafile without registering an account on the service provider.</p> <p>In this documentation, we assume the reader is familiar with Shibboleth installation and configuration. For introduction to Shibboleth concepts, please refer to https://shibboleth.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CONCEPT/overview .</p> <p>Shibboleth Service Provider (SP) should be installed on the same server as the Seafile server. The official SP from https://shibboleth.net/ is implemented as an Apache module. The module handles all Shibboleth authentication details. Seafile server receives authentication information (username) from HTTP request. The username then can be used as login name for the user.</p> <p>Seahub provides a special URL to handle Shibboleth login. The URL is <code>https://your-seafile-domain/sso</code>. Only this URL needs to be configured under Shibboleth protection. All other URLs don't go through the Shibboleth module. The overall workflow for a user to login with Shibboleth is as follows:</p> <ol> <li>In the Seafile login page, there is a separate \"Single Sign-On\" login button. When the user clicks the button, she/he will be redirected to <code>https://your-seafile-domain/sso</code>.</li> <li>Since that URL is controlled by Shibboleth, the user will be redirected to IdP for login. After the user logs in, she/he will be redirected back to <code>https://your-seafile-domain/sso</code>.</li> <li>This time the Shibboleth module passes the request to Seahub. Seahub reads the user information from the request(<code>HTTP_REMOTE_USER</code> header)  and brings the user to her/his home page.</li> <li>All later access to Seahub will not pass through the Shibboleth module. Since Seahub keeps session information internally, the user doesn't need to login again until the session expires.</li> </ol> <p>Since Shibboleth support requires Apache, if you want to use Nginx, you need two servers, one for non-Shibboleth access, another configured with Apache to allow Shibboleth login. In a cluster environment, you can configure your load balancer to direct traffic to different server according to URL. Only the URL <code>https://your-seafile-domain/sso</code> needs to be directed to Apache.</p> <p>The configuration includes 3 steps:</p> <ol> <li>Install and configure Shibboleth Service Provider;</li> <li>Configure Apache;</li> <li>Configure Seahub.</li> </ol>"},{"location":"config/shibboleth_authentication/#install-and-configure-shibboleth-service-provider","title":"Install and Configure Shibboleth Service Provider","text":"<p>We use CentOS 7 as example.</p>"},{"location":"config/shibboleth_authentication/#configure-apache","title":"Configure Apache","text":"<p>You should create a new virtual host configuration for Shibboleth.

HA (high availability) can be achieved by deploying multiple load balancer instances.</li> <li>Seafile server cluster: a cluster of Seafile server instances. If one instance fails, the load balancer will stop handing traffic to it. So HA is achieved.</li> <li>Backend storage: Distributed storage cluster, e.g.  S3, Openstack Swift or Ceph.</li> </ul> <p>This architecture scales horizontally. That means, you can handle more traffic by adding more machines. The architecture is visualized in the following picture.</p> <p></p> <p>There are two main components on the Seafile server node: web server (Nginx/Apache) and Seafile app server. The web server passes requests from the clients to Seafile app server. The Seafile app servers work independently. They don't know about each other's state. That means each app server can fail independently without affecting other app server instances. The load balancer is responsible for detecting failure and re-routing requests.</p> <p>Even though Seafile app servers work independently, they still have to share some session information. All shared session information is stored in memory cache. Thus, all Seafile app servers have to connect to the same memory cache server (cluster). Since Pro Edition 11.0, both memcached and Redis can be used as memory cache. Before 11.0, only memcached is supported. More details about memory cache configuration is available later. Since Seafile 13.0, we recommend that you use Redis as a cache to adapt to new features (such as Seafile AI, Metadata management, etc.).</p> <p>The background server is the workhorse for various background tasks, including full-text indexing, office file preview, virus scanning, LDAP syncing. It should usually be run on a dedicated server for better performance. Currently only one background task server can be running in the entire cluster. If more than one background servers are running, they may conflict with each others when doing some tasks. If you need HA for background task server, you can consider using Keepalived to build a hot backup for it.</p> <p>In the seafile cluster, only one server should run the background tasks, including:</p> <ul> <li>indexing files for search</li> <li>email notification</li> <li>LDAP sync</li> <li>virus scan</li> </ul> <p>Let's assume you have three nodes in your cluster: A, B, and C.</p> <ul> <li>Node A is backend node that run background tasks.</li> <li>Node B and C are frontend nodes that serving requests from clients.</li> </ul> <p></p>"},{"location":"setup/cluster_deploy_with_docker/#cluster-requirements","title":"Cluster requirements","text":"<p>Please refer here for the details about the cluster requirements for all nodes in Seafile cluster.

The difference is that when using K8S to deploy a Seafile cluster (especially in a cloud environment), the persistent volume created is usually shared and synchronized for all nodes. However, the logs generated by the Seafile service do not record the specific node information where these logs are located, so browsing the files in the above folder may make it difficult to identify which node these logs are generated from. Therefore, one solution proposed here is:</p> <ol> <li> <p>Record the generated logs to the standard output. In this way, the logs can be distinguished under each node by <code>kubectl logs</code> (but all types of logs will be output together now). You can enable this feature (it should be enabled by default in K8S Seafile cluster but not in K8S single-pod Seafile) by modifing <code>SEAFILE_LOG_TO_STDOUT</code> to <code>true</code> in <code>seafile-env.yaml</code>:</p> <pre><code>...\ndata:\n  ...\n  SEAFILE_LOG_TO_STDOUT: \"true\"\n  ...\n</code></pre> <p>Then restart the Seafile server:</p> <pre><code>kubectl delete pods -n seafile $(kubectl get pods -n seafile -o jsonpath='{.items[*].metadata.name}' | grep seafile)\n</code></pre> </li> <li> <p>Since the logs in step 1 can be distinguished between nodes, but they are aggregated and output together, it is not convenient for log retrieval. So you have to route the standard output logs (i.e., distinguish logs by corresponding components name) and re-record them in a new file or upload them to a log aggregation system (e.g., Loki).</p> </li> </ol> <p>Currently in the K8S environment, the commonly used log routing plugins are:</p> <ul> <li>Fluent Bit</li> <li>Fluentd</li> <li>Logstash</li> <li>Promtail (also a part of Loki)</li> </ul> <p>Fluent Bit and Promtail are more lightweight (i.e., consume less system resources), while Promtail only supports transferring logs to Loki. Therefore, this document will mainly introduce log routing through Fluent Bit which is a fast, lightweight logs and metrics agent. It is also a CNCF graduated sub-project under the umbrella of Fluentd. Fluent Bit is licensed under the terms of the Apache License v2.0.

For the configurations for each backend section, please refer to the following table:</p> Variable Description <code>bucket</code> Bucket name for commit, fs, and block objects. Make sure it follows S3 naming rules (you can refer the notes below the table). <code>key_id</code> The <code>key_id</code> is required to authenticate you to S3. You can find the <code>key_id</code> in the \"security credentials\" section on your AWS account page or from your storage provider. <code>key</code> The <code>key</code> is required to authenticate you to S3. You can find the <code>key</code> in the \"security credentials\" section on your AWS account page or from your storage provider. <code>use_v4_signature</code> There are two versions of authentication protocols that can be used with S3 storage: Version 2 (older, may still be supported by some regions) and Version 4 (current, used by most regions). If you don't set this option, Seafile will use the v2 protocol. It's suggested to use the v4 protocol. <code>use_https</code> Use https to connect to S3. It's recommended to use https. <code>aws_region</code> (Optional) If you use the v4 protocol and AWS S3, set this option to the region you chose when you create the buckets. If it's not set and you're using the v4 protocol, Seafile will use <code>us-east-1</code> as the default. This option will be ignored if you use the v2 protocol. <code>host</code> (Optional) The endpoint by which you access the storage service. Usually it starts with the region name. It's required to provide the host address if you use storage provider other than AWS, otherwise Seafile will use AWS's address (i.e., <code>s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com</code>). <code>sse_c_key</code> (Optional) A string of 32 characters can be generated by <code>openssl rand -base64 24</code>. It can be any 32-character long random string. It's required to use V4 authentication protocol and https if you enable SSE-C. <code>path_style_request</code> (Optional) This option asks Seafile to use URLs like <code>https://192.168.1.123:8080/bucketname/object</code> to access objects. In Amazon S3, the default URL format is in virtual host style, such as <code>https://bucketname.s3.amazonaws.com/object</code>. But this style relies on advanced DNS server setup. So most self-hosted storage systems only implement the path style format.

Internet Explorer and SeaDrive both use this mechanism.</p> <p>The details of Integrated Windows Authentication is described below:</p> <ol> <li>Decide whether or not to use IWA according to the address and Internet Options. (more in next section)</li> <li>Send a request to the server (e.g. http://test.seafile.com/sso)</li> <li>The server returns an HTTP 401 unauthorized response with the Negotiate header which includes an authentication protocol.</li> <li>The WinHttp API will try to use Kerberos first, if there is a valid ticket from KDC. The request will be sent again, together with the ticket in an HTTP header.</li> <li>Then, Apache can check the ticket with KDC, and extract the username from it. The username will be passed to SeaHub for a successful auto login.</li> <li>If the WinHttp API failed to get a ticket, it will then try the NTLM protocol by sending an HTTP request with Negotiate NTLMSSP token in the header. Without supporting the NTLM protocol, Apache shall returns an HTTP 401 unauthorized response and stops negotiation.

For example, if the OU is <code>staffs</code>, you can run <code>dsquery ou -name staff</code>. More information can be found here.</p> </li> </ul> </li> <li> <p>AD supports <code>user@domain.name</code> format for the <code>LDAP_ADMIN_DN</code> option. For example you can use administrator@example.com for <code>LDAP_ADMIN_DN</code>. Sometime the domain controller doesn't recognize this format. You can still use <code>dsquery</code> command to find out user's DN. For example, if the user name is 'seafileuser', run <code>dsquery user -name seafileuser</code>.

Seafile supports authentication via Shibboleth. It allows users from another organization to log in to Seafile without registering an account on the service provider.</p> <p>In this documentation, we assume the reader is familiar with Shibboleth installation and configuration. For introduction to Shibboleth concepts, please refer to https://shibboleth.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CONCEPT/overview .</p> <p>Shibboleth Service Provider (SP) should be installed on the same server as the Seafile server. The official SP from https://shibboleth.net/ is implemented as an Apache module. The module handles all Shibboleth authentication details. Seafile server receives authentication information (username) from HTTP request. The username then can be used as login name for the user.</p> <p>Seahub provides a special URL to handle Shibboleth login. The URL is <code>https://your-seafile-domain/sso</code>. Only this URL needs to be configured under Shibboleth protection. All other URLs don't go through the Shibboleth module. The overall workflow for a user to login with Shibboleth is as follows:</p> <ol> <li>In the Seafile login page, there is a separate \"Single Sign-On\" login button. When the user clicks the button, she/he will be redirected to <code>https://your-seafile-domain/sso</code>.</li> <li>Since that URL is controlled by Shibboleth, the user will be redirected to IdP for login. After the user logs in, she/he will be redirected back to <code>https://your-seafile-domain/sso</code>.</li> <li>This time the Shibboleth module passes the request to Seahub. Seahub reads the user information from the request(<code>HTTP_REMOTE_USER</code> header)  and brings the user to her/his home page.</li> <li>All later access to Seahub will not pass through the Shibboleth module. Since Seahub keeps session information internally, the user doesn't need to login again until the session expires.</li> </ol> <p>Since Shibboleth support requires Apache, if you want to use Nginx, you need two servers, one for non-Shibboleth access, another configured with Apache to allow Shibboleth login. In a cluster environment, you can configure your load balancer to direct traffic to different server according to URL. Only the URL <code>https://your-seafile-domain/sso</code> needs to be directed to Apache.</p> <p>The configuration includes 3 steps:</p> <ol> <li>Install and configure Shibboleth Service Provider;</li> <li>Configure Apache;</li> <li>Configure Seahub.</li> </ol>"},{"location":"config/shibboleth_authentication/#install-and-configure-shibboleth-service-provider","title":"Install and Configure Shibboleth Service Provider","text":"<p>We use CentOS 7 as example.</p>"},{"location":"config/shibboleth_authentication/#configure-apache","title":"Configure Apache","text":"<p>You should create a new virtual host configuration for Shibboleth.

HA (high availability) can be achieved by deploying multiple load balancer instances.</li> <li>Seafile server cluster: a cluster of Seafile server instances. If one instance fails, the load balancer will stop handing traffic to it. So HA is achieved.</li> <li>Backend storage: Distributed storage cluster, e.g.  S3, Openstack Swift or Ceph.</li> </ul> <p>This architecture scales horizontally. That means, you can handle more traffic by adding more machines. The architecture is visualized in the following picture.</p> <p></p> <p>There are two main components on the Seafile server node: web server (Nginx/Apache) and Seafile app server. The web server passes requests from the clients to Seafile app server. The Seafile app servers work independently. They don't know about each other's state. That means each app server can fail independently without affecting other app server instances. The load balancer is responsible for detecting failure and re-routing requests.</p> <p>Even though Seafile app servers work independently, they still have to share some session information. All shared session information is stored in memory cache. Thus, all Seafile app servers have to connect to the same memory cache server (cluster). Since Pro Edition 11.0, both memcached and Redis can be used as memory cache. Before 11.0, only memcached is supported. More details about memory cache configuration is available later. Since Seafile 13.0, we recommend that you use Redis as a cache to adapt to new features (such as Seafile AI, Metadata management, etc.).</p> <p>The background server is the workhorse for various background tasks, including full-text indexing, office file preview, virus scanning, LDAP syncing. It should usually be run on a dedicated server for better performance. Currently only one background task server can be running in the entire cluster. If more than one background servers are running, they may conflict with each others when doing some tasks. If you need HA for background task server, you can consider using Keepalived to build a hot backup for it.</p> <p>In the seafile cluster, only one server should run the background tasks, including:</p> <ul> <li>indexing files for search</li> <li>email notification</li> <li>LDAP sync</li> <li>virus scan</li> </ul> <p>Let's assume you have three nodes in your cluster: A, B, and C.</p> <ul> <li>Node A is backend node that run background tasks.</li> <li>Node B and C are frontend nodes that serving requests from clients.</li> </ul> <p></p>"},{"location":"setup/cluster_deploy_with_docker/#cluster-requirements","title":"Cluster requirements","text":"<p>Please refer here for the details about the cluster requirements for all nodes in Seafile cluster.

The difference is that when using K8S to deploy a Seafile cluster (especially in a cloud environment), the persistent volume created is usually shared and synchronized for all nodes. However, the logs generated by the Seafile service do not record the specific node information where these logs are located, so browsing the files in the above folder may make it difficult to identify which node these logs are generated from. Therefore, one solution proposed here is:</p> <ol> <li> <p>Record the generated logs to the standard output. In this way, the logs can be distinguished under each node by <code>kubectl logs</code> (but all types of logs will be output together now). You can enable this feature (it should be enabled by default in K8S Seafile cluster but not in K8S single-pod Seafile) by modifing <code>SEAFILE_LOG_TO_STDOUT</code> to <code>true</code> in <code>seafile-env.yaml</code>:</p> <pre><code>...\ndata:\n  ...\n  SEAFILE_LOG_TO_STDOUT: \"true\"\n  ...\n</code></pre> <p>Then restart the Seafile server:</p> <pre><code>kubectl delete pods -n seafile $(kubectl get pods -n seafile -o jsonpath='{.items[*].metadata.name}' | grep seafile)\n</code></pre> </li> <li> <p>Since the logs in step 1 can be distinguished between nodes, but they are aggregated and output together, it is not convenient for log retrieval. So you have to route the standard output logs (i.e., distinguish logs by corresponding components name) and re-record them in a new file or upload them to a log aggregation system (e.g., Loki).</p> </li> </ol> <p>Currently in the K8S environment, the commonly used log routing plugins are:</p> <ul> <li>Fluent Bit</li> <li>Fluentd</li> <li>Logstash</li> <li>Promtail (also a part of Loki)</li> </ul> <p>Fluent Bit and Promtail are more lightweight (i.e., consume less system resources), while Promtail only supports transferring logs to Loki. Therefore, this document will mainly introduce log routing through Fluent Bit which is a fast, lightweight logs and metrics agent. It is also a CNCF graduated sub-project under the umbrella of Fluentd. Fluent Bit is licensed under the terms of the Apache License v2.0.

For the configurations for each backend section, please refer to the following table:</p> Variable Description <code>bucket</code> Bucket name for commit, fs, and block objects. Make sure it follows S3 naming rules (you can refer the notes below the table). <code>key_id</code> The <code>key_id</code> is required to authenticate you to S3. You can find the <code>key_id</code> in the \"security credentials\" section on your AWS account page or from your storage provider. <code>key</code> The <code>key</code> is required to authenticate you to S3. You can find the <code>key</code> in the \"security credentials\" section on your AWS account page or from your storage provider. <code>use_v4_signature</code> There are two versions of authentication protocols that can be used with S3 storage: Version 2 (older, may still be supported by some regions) and Version 4 (current, used by most regions). If you don't set this option, Seafile will use the v2 protocol. It's suggested to use the v4 protocol. <code>use_https</code> Use https to connect to S3. It's recommended to use https. <code>aws_region</code> (Optional) If you use the v4 protocol and AWS S3, set this option to the region you chose when you create the buckets. If it's not set and you're using the v4 protocol, Seafile will use <code>us-east-1</code> as the default. This option will be ignored if you use the v2 protocol. <code>host</code> (Optional) The endpoint by which you access the storage service. Usually it starts with the region name. It's required to provide the host address if you use storage provider other than AWS, otherwise Seafile will use AWS's address (i.e., <code>s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com</code>). <code>sse_c_key</code> (Optional) A string of 32 characters can be generated by <code>openssl rand -base64 24</code>. It can be any 32-character long random string. It's required to use V4 authentication protocol and https if you enable SSE-C. <code>path_style_request</code> (Optional) This option asks Seafile to use URLs like <code>https://192.168.1.123:8080/bucketname/object</code> to access objects. In Amazon S3, the default URL format is in virtual host style, such as <code>https://bucketname.s3.amazonaws.com/object</code>. But this style relies on advanced DNS server setup. So most self-hosted storage systems only implement the path style format.
