- Enhanced Elasticsearch experience with Chinese words segmentation support (see specifications bellow).
- Login with GitHub and GitLab OAuth 2, try it now here!
This is a rebase fork of tootsuite/mastodon, all local changes are rebased on the top. To pull the latest commits of this repo, use git reset --hard origin/main instead of git pull. If you are going to develop based on this fork, I strongly recommend you always cherry-pick your commits to the HEAD of this branch.
To enable the new custom features, please add the necessary configurations first according to the file end of .env.production.sample.
This project added the Chinese words segmentation support in ElasticSearch, please use this ElasticSearch image. Using the original version of ElasticSearch Engine may goes into error.
The Docker images are listed here.

Since there are a lot of changes in v4 of upstream, I'm still working on merging it, see dev branch. But for the benefit of a long turn maintenance, I'm planing remove some less important features form this fork to reduce the work I have to do every time when merge the code. I'm also considering switching to another web front end, like elk, because the official web interface is really not in my favour :(
I see there is a pull request on upstream that contains changes to use TypeScript, which is great, I'll keep an eye on it.
Thanks for the support of JetBrains.
Follows the original README
Mastodon is a free, open-source social network server based on ActivityPub where users can follow friends and discover new ones. On Mastodon, users can publish anything they want: links, pictures, text, video. All Mastodon servers are interoperable as a federated network (users on one server can seamlessly communicate with users from another one, including non-Mastodon software that implements ActivityPub)!

It doesn't have to be Mastodon; whatever implements ActivityPub is part of the social network! Learn more
Updates of people you're following appear in real-time in the UI via WebSockets. There's a firehose view as well!
Upload and view images and WebM/MP4 videos attached to the updates. Videos with no audio track are treated like GIFs; normal videos loop continuously!
Mastodon includes private posts, locked accounts, phrase filtering, muting, blocking and all sorts of other features, along with a reporting and moderation system. Learn more
Mastodon acts as an OAuth2 provider, so 3rd party apps can use the REST and Streaming APIs. This results in a rich app ecosystem with a lot of choices!
- Ruby on Rails powers the REST API and other web pages
- React.js and Redux are used for the dynamic parts of the interface
- Node.js powers the streaming API
- PostgreSQL 9.5+
- Redis 4+
- Ruby 2.6+
- Node.js 14+
The repository includes deployment configurations for Docker and docker-compose as well as specific platforms like Heroku, Scalingo, and Nanobox. The standalone installation guide is available in the documentation.
A Vagrant configuration is included for development purposes. To use it, complete following steps:
- Install Vagrant and Virtualbox
- Install the
vagrant-hostsupdaterplugin:vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostsupdater - Run
vagrant up - Run
vagrant ssh -c "cd /vagrant && foreman start" - Open
