## Mastodon
https://docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/config/#cdn
Mastodon natively supports the S3 protocol to store media files, and it works out-of-the-box with Garage.
You will need to expose your Garage bucket as a website: that way, media files will be served directly from Garage.
### Performance considerations
Mastodon tends to store many small objects over time: expect hundreds of thousands of objects,
with average object size ranging from 50 KB to 150 KB.
As such, your Garage cluster should be configured appropriately for good performance:
- use Garage v0.8.0 or higher with the [LMDB database engine](@documentation/reference-manual/configuration.md#db-engine-since-v0-8-0).
With the default Sled database engine, your database could quickly end up taking tens of GB of disk space.
- the Garage database should be stored on a SSD
### Creating your bucket
This is the usual Garage setup:
```bash
garage key new --name mastodon-key
garage bucket create mastodon-data
garage bucket allow mastodon-data --read --write --key mastodon-key
```
Note the Key ID and Secret Key.
### Exposing your bucket as a website
Create a DNS name to serve your media files, such as `my-social-media.mydomain.tld`.
This name will be publicly exposed to the users of your Mastodon instance: they
will load images directly from this DNS name.
As [documented here](@/documentation/cookbook/exposing-websites.md),
add this DNS name as alias to your bucket, and expose it as a website:
```bash
garage bucket alias mastodon-data my-social-media.mydomain.tld
garage bucket website --allow mastodon-data
```
Then you will likely need to [setup a reverse proxy](@/documentation/cookbook/reverse-proxy.md)
in front of it to serve your media files over HTTPS.
### Cleaning up old media files before migration
Mastodon instance quickly accumulate a lot of media files from the federation.
Most of them are not strictly necessary because they can be fetched again from
other servers. As such, it is highly recommended to clean them up before
migration, this will greatly reduce the migration time.
From the [official Mastodon documentation](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/tootctl/#media):
```bash
$ RAILS_ENV=production bin/tootctl media remove --days 3
$ RAILS_ENV=production bin/tootctl media remove-orphans
$ RAILS_ENV=production bin/tootctl preview_cards remove --days 15
```
Here is a typical disk usage for a small but multi-year instance after cleanup:
```bash
$ RAILS_ENV=production bin/tootctl media usage
Attachments: 5.67 GB (1.14 GB local)
Custom emoji: 295 MB (0 Bytes local)
Preview cards: 154 MB
Avatars: 3.77 GB (127 KB local)
Headers: 8.72 GB (242 KB local)
Backups: 0 Bytes
Imports: 1.7 KB
Settings: 0 Bytes
```
Unfortunately, [old avatars and headers cannot currently be cleaned up](https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/9567).
### Migrating your data
Data migration should be done with an efficient S3 client.
The [minio client](@documentation/connect/cli.md#minio-client) is a good choice
thanks to its mirror mode:
```bash
mc mirror ./public/system/ garage/mastodon-data
```
Here is a typical bucket usage after all data has been migrated:
```bash
$ garage bucket info mastodon-data
Size: 20.3 GiB (21.8 GB)
Objects: 175968
```
### Configuring Mastodon
In your `.env.production` configuration file:
```bash
S3_ENABLED=true
# Internal access to Garage
S3_ENDPOINT=http://my-garage-instance.mydomain.tld:3900
S3_REGION=garage
S3_BUCKET=mastodon-data
# Change this (Key ID and Secret Key of your Garage key)
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=GKe88df__CHANGETHIS__c5145
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=a2f7__CHANGETHIS__77fcfcf7a58f47a4aa4431f2e675c56da37821a1070000
# What name gets exposed to users (HTTPS is implicit)
S3_ALIAS_HOST=my-social-media.mydomain.tld
```
For more details, see the [reference Mastodon documentation](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/config/#cdn).
Restart all Mastodon services and everything should now be using Garage!
You can check the URLs of images in the Mastodon web client, they should start
with `https://my-social-media.mydomain.tld`.
### Last migration sync
After Mastodon is successfully using Garage, you can run a last sync from the local filesystem to Garage:
```bash
mc mirror --newer-than "3h" ./public/system/ garage/mastodon-data
```

### `namespace`
