 # Ansible Role: strfry
 
-This Ansible Role builds and installs [strfry](https://github.com/hoytech/strfry).
+This Ansible Role builds and installs [strfry](https://github.com/hoytech/strfry), and also sets up [strfry-policies](https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/strfry-policies). It is intended to be composed with a separate role to handle the web proxy configuration.
 
-Future role improvements:
-
-* The git tasks in this role are not yet idempotent due to handling a submodule.
-* The installation process could be made to check if strfry is already running and perform a zero-downtime upgrade.
+Tested on:
+* Archlinux
+* Debian 11
+* Ubuntu 22.04

 For more configuration info, see the relevant upstream [configuration example](https://github.com/hoytech/strfry/blob/beta/strfry.conf) for your branch/version.
 
 ## Example Playbook
 
 ```yaml
-- hosts: all
-  become: true
+- hosts: strfry
   roles:
     - role: bleetube.strfry
     - role: nginxinc.nginx_core.nginx
+      become: yes
   tasks:
     - import_tasks: nginx_conf.yml
+      become: yes
 ```
 
+A sample [nginx configuration](docs/examples/nginx_conf.yml) is provided.
+
+For a fully functional production example that includes hosting multiple relays, see this [homelab stack](https://github.com/bleetube/satstack).
+
+## Upgrades
+
+Occasionally there are upgrades that require rebuilding the database. You need to `export` before upgrading, and then `import` with the new binary. The role might do the export step, but the import needs to be done manually. Don't rely on the role for the backup. Here's a simple example:
+
+```shell
+# Before upgrade
+doas -u strfry strfry export > /tmp/backup.jsonl
+# After upgrade
+systemctl stop strfry
+mv strfry-db/data.mdb strfry-db/backup.mdb
+cat /tmp/backup.jsonl | doas -u strfry strfry import
+doas -u strfry strfry compact strfry-db/compact.mdb
+mv strfry-db/compact.mdb strfry-db/data.mdb
+systemctl start strfry
+```
+
+This is by no means the cleanest way to upgrade, but you get the idea. It's possible to perform the import in a separate process (I think you'd just use a different config file) and then sync the two databases before performing a zero downtime restart.
+
 ## Troubleshooting
 
-If `make` fails, try running on a single core:
+* If an upgrade fails to build, it could be due to previously built objects. A simple workaround is to delete the strfry source folder `~/src/strfry` and let it try to build from scratch.
+
+* If `make` fails, try building on a single core:
+
+  ```shell
+  ansible-playbook playbooks/strfry/main.yml -e 'strfry_make_jobs=1'
+  ```
+
+* Reading your logs:
+
+  ```shell
+  systemctl status strfry
+  journalctl -fu strfry
+  ```
+
+## Maintenance
+
+* You should periodically run `compact` on your strfry database.
+
+  ```shell
+  systemctl stop strfry
+  doas -u strfry strfry compact strfry-db/compact.mdb
+  mv strfry-db/compact.mdb strfry-db/data.mdb
+  systemctl start strfry
+  ```
+
+* You can prune events from the database, reducing it's size will reduce the overall compute load on the relay. Make a backup beforehand. Here is a simple example of deleting events that are more than 90 days old:
+
+  ```shell
+  doas -u strfry strfry export > /tmp/backup.jsonl
+  doas -u strfry strfry delete --age=$((90 * 24 * 60 * 60))
+  ```
+  For a more advanced pruning strategy, you can implement an export/import process to remove certain kinds of events more aggresively. See [bleetube/strfry-prune](https://github.com/bleetube/strfry-prune) for an example.
