## Configuration Best Practices

### Performance Optimizations

**Large File Handling**: The server is configured for efficient large file uploads:
- Extended timeouts (`4800s`) prevent disconnections during GB-sized transfers
- Dynamic worker scaling (`enable_dynamic_workers = true`) adjusts capacity automatically
- Chunked uploads (`chunk_size = "10MB"`) improve reliability for large files

**Storage Efficiency**: 
- Deduplication (`enabled = true`, `maxsize = "1GB"`) uses hard links to save space
- Selective virus scanning (`scanfileextensions`) skips large media files for performance
- Automatic cleanup (`cleanup_interval = "24h"`) maintains disk space

**Network Configuration**:
- Reverse proxy timeouts must match server settings (`proxy_read_timeout 4800`)
- Upload size limits should accommodate `max_upload_size = "10GB"`
- Queue settings (`uploadqueuesize = 50`) balance memory usage and throughput

### Security Considerations

- Use strong HMAC secrets (64+ characters)
- Limit file extensions based on your use case
- Enable ClamAV for dangerous file types only
- Monitor logs for authentication failures

### Monitoring

- Prometheus metrics available at `/metrics` endpoint
- Log rotation configured to prevent disk space issues
- Worker scaling and queue metrics help identify bottlenecks

## Setup Instructions

### 1. HMAC File Server Installation

To install the HMAC File Server, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:
    ```sh
    git clone https://git.uuxo.net/uuxo/hmac-file-server.git
    cd hmac-file-server
    ```

2. Build the server:
    ```sh
    go build -o hmac-file-server ./cmd/server/main.go
    ```

3. Create the necessary directories:
    ```sh
    mkdir -p /path/to/hmac-file-server/data/
    mkdir -p /path/to/hmac-file-server/deduplication/
    mkdir -p /path/to/hmac-file-server/iso/
    ```

4. Copy the example configuration file:
    ```sh
    cp config.example.toml config.toml
    ```

5. Edit the `config.toml` file to match your environment and preferences.

6. Start the server:
    ```sh
    ./hmac-file-server -config config.toml
    ```

### 2. Reverse Proxy Configuration

To set up a reverse proxy for the HMAC File Server, you can use either Apache2 or Nginx. Below are the configuration examples for both.

#### Apache2 Reverse Proxy

1. Enable the necessary Apache2 modules:
    ```sh
    sudo a2enmod proxy
    sudo a2enmod proxy_http
    sudo a2enmod headers
    sudo a2enmod rewrite
    ```

2. Create a new virtual host configuration file:
    ```sh
    sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/hmac-file-server.conf
    ```

3. Add the following configuration to the file:
    ```apache
    <VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName your-domain.com

        ProxyPreserveHost On
        ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/
        ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/

        <Location />
            Require all granted
            Header always set X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff"
            Header always set X-Frame-Options "DENY"
            Header always set X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block"
        </Location>
    </VirtualHost>
    ```

4. Enable the new site and restart Apache2:
    ```sh
    sudo a2ensite hmac-file-server.conf
    sudo systemctl restart apache2
    ```

#### Nginx Reverse Proxy

1. Install Nginx if not already installed:
    ```sh
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install nginx
    ```

2. Create a new server block configuration file:
    ```sh
    sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/hmac-file-server
    ```

3. Add the following configuration to the file:
    ```nginx
    server {
        listen 80;
        server_name your-domain.com;

        location / {
            proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
            proxy_set_header Host $host;
            proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
            proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
            proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
            proxy_set_header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff";
            proxy_set_header X-Frame-Options "DENY";
            proxy_set_header X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block";
        }
    }
    ```

4. Enable the new site and restart Nginx:
    ```sh
    sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/hmac-file-server /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
    sudo systemctl restart nginx
    ```

### Proxy Best Practices & Recommendations

For production deployments, consider the following reverse proxy best practices:

- **Timeouts**: Set extended timeouts (e.g., `proxy_read_timeout 4800;` in Nginx) for large file handling.
- **Buffer Sizes**: Increase buffer sizes for large file uploads/downloads if needed (e.g., `client_max_body_size 2G;` in Nginx).
- **Headers**: Always set security headers (`X-Content-Type-Options`, `X-Frame-Options`, `X-XSS-Protection`).
- **Forwarded Headers**: Ensure `X-Forwarded-For` and `X-Forwarded-Proto` are set for correct client IP and protocol logging.
- **HTTP/2**: Enable HTTP/2 for better performance if supported by your proxy and clients.
- **SSL/TLS**: Terminate SSL at the proxy and use strong ciphers. Redirect HTTP to HTTPS.
- **Health Checks**: Configure health checks for the backend server to enable automatic failover or alerting.
- **Access Controls**: Restrict access to the management endpoints (e.g., `/metrics`) to trusted IPs only.

See the official Nginx and Apache documentation for more advanced tuning options.

```

4. Restart ejabberd:
    ```sh
    sudo systemctl restart ejabberd
    ```

### 4. Systemd Service Setup

To set up the HMAC File Server as a systemd service, follow these steps:

1. Create a new systemd service file:
    ```sh
    sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/hmac-file-server.service
    ```

2. Add the following configuration to the file:
    ```ini
    [Unit]
    Description=HMAC File Server
    After=network.target

    [Service]
    ExecStart=/path/to/hmac-file-server -config /path/to/config.toml
    WorkingDirectory=/path/to/hmac-file-server
    Restart=always
    User=www-data
    Group=www-data

    [Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target
    ```

3. Reload systemd and enable the service:
    ```sh
    sudo systemctl daemon-reload
    sudo systemctl enable hmac-file-server
    sudo systemctl start hmac-file-server
    ```

---

## Running with Docker & Docker Compose

You can run the HMAC File Server using Docker and Docker Compose for easy deployment and environment management.

### Automated Docker Deployment (Recommended)

The easiest way to deploy with Docker is using the automated installer:

```bash
git clone https://git.uuxo.net/uuxo/hmac-file-server.git
cd hmac-file-server
sudo ./installer.sh
```

When prompted, select **Option 2: Docker deployment (docker-compose)**. The installer will:
- Create a complete docker-compose.yml with Redis and ClamAV services
- Generate an optimized multi-stage Dockerfile
- Set up proper networking between services
- Create start/stop scripts (`start.sh`, `stop.sh`)
- Configure container-optimized configuration
- Provide an isolated deployment directory structure

After installation, manage your deployment with:
```bash
cd /path/to/your/deployment/directory
./start.sh    # Start all services
./stop.sh     # Stop all services
```

### Manual Docker Compose Setup

### Manual Docker Compose Setup

For manual Docker setup without the installer, use this docker-compose.yml:

```yaml
version: '3.8'

services:
  hmac-file-server:
    image: ghcr.io/plusone/hmac-file-server:latest
    ports:
      - "8080:8080"
    volumes:
      - ./config:/etc/hmac-file-server
      - ./data/uploads:/opt/hmac-file-server/data/uploads
      - ./data/duplicates:/opt/hmac-file-server/data/duplicates
      - ./data/temp:/opt/hmac-file-server/data/temp
      - ./data/logs:/opt/hmac-file-server/data/logs
    environment:
      - CONFIG_PATH=/etc/hmac-file-server/config.toml
    restart: unless-stopped
```

**Key paths:**
- `/etc/hmac-file-server/config.toml`: Main config file (mount your config here)
- `/opt/hmac-file-server/data/uploads`: Upload storage
- `/opt/hmac-file-server/data/duplicates`: Deduplication data
- `/opt/hmac-file-server/data/temp`: Temporary files
- `/opt/hmac-file-server/data/logs`: Log files

## Running with Podman

Podman is a daemonless container engine that's often preferred in enterprise environments for enhanced security and rootless capabilities. HMAC File Server 3.2 provides complete Podman support with optimized deployment scripts.

### Why Choose Podman?

| Feature | Docker | Podman |
|---------|--------|--------|
| **Daemon** | Requires Docker daemon | Daemonless architecture |
| **Root Access** | Requires root for Docker daemon | Can run completely rootless |
| **Security** | Good, but daemon runs as root | Enhanced security, no privileged daemon |
| **Systemd Integration** | Via Docker service | Native systemd integration |
| **Pod Support** | Requires docker-compose or swarm | Native Kubernetes-style pods |
| **Enterprise Use** | Popular in startups/mid-size | Preferred in enterprise environments |
| **SELinux** | Basic support | Excellent SELinux integration |

### Quick Start with Podman

```bash
# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/PlusOne/hmac-file-server.git
cd hmac-file-server/dockerenv/podman

# One-command deployment
./deploy-podman.sh

# Check status
./deploy-podman.sh status

# View logs
./deploy-podman.sh logs
```

### Manual Directory & Permission Setup

#### **Understanding Container Security Model**
- **Container User**: `appuser` (UID: 1011, GID: 1011)
- **Security Principle**: Never run containers as root (UID 0)
- **Compatibility**: Works across different container runtimes and deployment modes

#### **Step-by-Step Manual Setup**

**Step 1: Create Directory Structure**
```bash
# Create organized directory layout
export HMAC_BASE="/opt/podman/hmac-file-server"
sudo mkdir -p ${HMAC_BASE}/{config,data,deduplication,logs}

# Create subdirectories for uploads and duplicates
sudo mkdir -p ${HMAC_BASE}/data/{uploads,temp}
sudo mkdir -p ${HMAC_BASE}/deduplication/store
sudo mkdir -p ${HMAC_BASE}/logs/{access,error,debug}
```

**Step 2: Set Ownership (CRITICAL)**
```bash
# For Podman Rootless (recommended)
podman unshare chown -R 1011:1011 ${HMAC_BASE}

# For Podman Rootful or Docker
sudo chown -R 1011:1011 ${HMAC_BASE}

# Alternative: Use numeric IDs to avoid user lookup issues
sudo chown -R 1011:1011 ${HMAC_BASE}
```

**Step 3: Set Permissions**
```bash
# Directory permissions (executable for traversal)
sudo chmod 755 ${HMAC_BASE}
sudo chmod 755 ${HMAC_BASE}/{config,data,deduplication,logs}
sudo chmod 755 ${HMAC_BASE}/data/{uploads,temp}
sudo chmod 755 ${HMAC_BASE}/deduplication/store
sudo chmod 755 ${HMAC_BASE}/logs/{access,error,debug}

# Configuration file (read-only)
sudo chmod 644 ${HMAC_BASE}/config/config.toml
```

**Step 4: Verify Ownership**
```bash
# Check ownership recursively
ls -laR ${HMAC_BASE}

# Expected output format:
# drwxr-xr-x 2 1011 1011 4096 Dec 20 10:30 data
# drwxr-xr-x 2 1011 1011 4096 Dec 20 10:30 deduplication  
# drwxr-xr-x 2 1011 1011 4096 Dec 20 10:30 logs
# -rw-r--r-- 1 1011 1011 1234 Dec 20 10:30 config/config.toml
```

#### **Container Volume Mapping**

| Host Path | Container Mount | Access Mode | SELinux Label | Purpose |
|-----------|-----------------|-------------|---------------|---------|
| `${HMAC_BASE}/config/config.toml` | `/app/config.toml` | `ro` | `:Z` | Configuration file |
| `${HMAC_BASE}/data/` | `/data/` | `rw` | `:Z` | File uploads |
| `${HMAC_BASE}/deduplication/` | `/deduplication/` | `rw` | `:Z` | Dedup cache |
| `${HMAC_BASE}/logs/` | `/logs/` | `rw` | `:Z` | Application logs |

#### **Complete Manual Run Command**
```bash
# Build container image
podman build -t localhost/hmac-file-server:latest -f dockerenv/podman/Dockerfile.podman .

# Run with proper volume mounts and SELinux labels
podman run -d --name hmac-file-server \
  --security-opt no-new-privileges \
  --cap-drop=ALL \
  --read-only \
  --tmpfs /tmp:rw,noexec,nosuid,size=100m \
  -p 8888:8888 \
  -p 9090:9090 \
  -v ${HMAC_BASE}/config/config.toml:/app/config.toml:ro,Z \
  -v ${HMAC_BASE}/data:/data:rw,Z \
  -v ${HMAC_BASE}/deduplication:/deduplication:rw,Z \
  -v ${HMAC_BASE}/logs:/logs:rw,Z \
  localhost/hmac-file-server:latest -config /app/config.toml
```

### Troubleshooting Path & Permission Issues

#### **Common Error: Permission Denied**
```bash
# Error in logs
{"level":"error","msg":"failed to create directories: mkdir /data: permission denied"}
```

**Root Cause**: Incorrect ownership or missing directories

**Solution**:
```bash
# Check current ownership
ls -la ${HMAC_BASE}

# Fix ownership (adjust command based on your setup)
# For rootless Podman:
podman unshare chown -R 1011:1011 ${HMAC_BASE}

# For rootful Podman/Docker:
sudo chown -R 1011:1011 ${HMAC_BASE}

# Verify fix
sudo -u "#1011" touch ${HMAC_BASE}/data/test-write
rm ${HMAC_BASE}/data/test-write
```

#### **Common Error: SELinux Denial**
```bash
# Error in logs or journalctl
SELinux is preventing access to 'write' on the file /data/test.txt
```

**Root Cause**: SELinux context not set for container volumes

**Solution**:
```bash
# Option 1: Use :Z labels (recommended - private volumes)
-v ${HMAC_BASE}/data:/data:rw,Z

# Option 2: Use :z labels (shared volumes between containers)  
-v ${HMAC_BASE}/data:/data:rw,z

# Option 3: Set SELinux boolean (system-wide change)
sudo setsebool -P container_manage_cgroup on

# Option 4: Manual context setting
sudo semanage fcontext -a -t container_file_t "${HMAC_BASE}(/.*)?"
sudo restorecon -R ${HMAC_BASE}
```

#### **Common Error: User Namespace Issues**
```bash
# Error starting container
Error: can't stat ${HMAC_BASE}/data: permission denied
```

**Root Cause**: User namespace mapping issues in rootless mode

**Solution**:
```bash
# Check user namespace configuration
cat /etc/subuid /etc/subgid | grep $USER

# If missing, add mappings (requires root)
sudo usermod --add-subuids 1000-65536 $USER
sudo usermod --add-subgids 1000-65536 $USER

# Restart user services
systemctl --user restart podman

# Use podman unshare for ownership
podman unshare chown -R 1011:1011 ${HMAC_BASE}
```

#### **Verification & Testing Commands**

```bash
# Test 1: Verify container can access all paths
podman exec hmac-file-server sh -c '
  echo "=== Container User ==="
  id
  echo "=== Directory Access ==="
  ls -la /app /data /deduplication /logs
  echo "=== Write Test ==="
  touch /data/write-test && echo "✅ Data write: OK" || echo "❌ Data write: FAILED"
  touch /deduplication/dedup-test && echo "✅ Dedup write: OK" || echo "❌ Dedup write: FAILED"  
  touch /logs/log-test && echo "✅ Log write: OK" || echo "❌ Log write: FAILED"
  echo "=== Config Read Test ==="
  head -3 /app/config.toml && echo "✅ Config read: OK" || echo "❌ Config read: FAILED"
'

# Test 2: External health check
curl -f http://localhost:8888/health && echo "✅ HTTP Health: OK" || echo "❌ HTTP Health: FAILED"

# Test 3: Metrics endpoint
curl -s http://localhost:9090/metrics | grep -E "hmac_|go_|process_" | wc -l
# Should return > 0 if metrics are working

# Test 4: File upload simulation (requires auth)
curl -X POST http://localhost:8888/upload \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-token" \
  -F "file=@test-file.txt" && echo "✅ Upload: OK" || echo "❌ Upload: FAILED"
```

#### **Advanced: Custom UID/GID Mapping**

If you need different UIDs (e.g., for existing file ownership):

```bash
# Option 1: Rebuild container with custom UID
podman build -t localhost/hmac-file-server:custom \
  --build-arg USER_UID=1500 \
  --build-arg USER_GID=1500 \
  -f dockerenv/podman/Dockerfile.podman .

# Option 2: Use --user flag (may have limitations)
podman run --user 1500:1500 [other options] localhost/hmac-file-server:latest

# Option 3: Host ownership adjustment
sudo chown -R 1500:1500 ${HMAC_BASE}
```

#### **Docker vs Podman Ownership Differences**

| Scenario | Docker | Podman Rootless | Podman Rootful |
|----------|--------|-----------------|----------------|
| **Host UID** | 1011:1011 | 1011:1011 | 1011:1011 |
| **Container UID** | 1011:1011 | 1011:1011 | 1011:1011 |
| **Volume Ownership** | `chown 1011:1011` | `podman unshare chown 1011:1011` | `chown 1011:1011` |
| **SELinux Labels** | `:Z` or `:z` | `:Z` or `:z` | `:Z` or `:z` |

### Podman Deployment Script Features

The `deploy-podman.sh` script provides complete automation:

- **✅ Interactive deployment** with colored output
- **✅ Auto-generates secure configuration** with random HMAC/JWT secrets
- **✅ Security-hardened settings**: `--cap-drop=ALL`, `--read-only`, `--no-new-privileges`
- **✅ Pod management** for XMPP integration
- **✅ Health monitoring** and status reporting
- **✅ Environment variable support** for customization

### Podman Security Features

#### Container Security
- **Rootless operation**: Runs as non-root user (UID 1011)
- **Capability dropping**: `--cap-drop=ALL`
- **No new privileges**: `--security-opt no-new-privileges`
- **Read-only filesystem**: `--read-only` with tmpfs for /tmp
- **SELinux labels**: Volume mounts with `:Z` labels

#### Network Security
- **Pod isolation**: Containers run in isolated pods
- **Port binding**: Only necessary ports exposed
- **Health monitoring**: Built-in health checks

### Troubleshooting Podman

#### Common Issues

**Permission Errors:**
```bash
# Fix SELinux contexts
restorecon -R /opt/podman/hmac-file-server

# Check volume permissions
podman unshare ls -la /opt/podman/hmac-file-server
```

**Container Won't Start:**
```bash
# Check image exists
podman images | grep hmac-file-server

# Validate configuration
./deploy-podman.sh config

# Debug with interactive container
podman run -it --rm localhost/hmac-file-server:latest /bin/sh
```

**Network Issues:**
```bash
# Check pod networking
podman pod ps
podman port hmac-file-server

# Test connectivity
nc -zv localhost 8888
```

```toml
# Enterprise cloud deployment
[server]
listen_address = ":8080"
storage_path = "/data/uploads"
hmac_secret = "${HMAC_SECRET}"
max_upload_size = "50GB"

[monitoring]
prometheus_enabled = true
metrics_port = "9090"
```

### XMPP Integration (XEP-0363)

```toml
# XMPP file sharing server
[server]
