## Adjusting DNS records
|
||||
|
||||
By default, this playbook installs Cinny on the `cinny.` subdomain (`cinny.example.com`) and requires you to create a CNAME record for `cinny`, which targets `matrix.example.com`.
|
||||
|
||||
When setting, replace `example.com` with your own.
|
||||
|
||||
## Adjusting the playbook configuration

### Adjusting the Cinny URL
|
||||
|
||||
By default, this playbook installs Cinny on the `cinny.` subdomain (`cinny.example.com`) and requires you to [adjust your DNS records](#adjusting-dns-records).
|
||||
### Adjusting the Cinny URL (optional)
|
||||
|
||||
By tweaking the `matrix_client_cinny_hostname` variable, you can easily make the service available at a **different hostname** than the default one.
|
||||
|
||||
While a `matrix_client_cinny_path_prefix` variable exists for tweaking the path-prefix, it's [not supported anymore](https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/3701), because Cinny requires an application rebuild (with a tweaked build config) to be functional under a custom path.
|
||||
|
||||
Example additional configuration for your `vars.yml` file:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# Switch to a different domain (`app.example.com`) than the default one (`cinny.example.com`)
|
||||
matrix_client_cinny_hostname: "app.{{ matrix_domain }}"
|
||||
|
||||
# Expose under the /cinny subpath
|
||||
# matrix_client_cinny_path_prefix: /cinny
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Adjusting DNS records
|
||||
After changing the domain, **you may need to adjust your DNS** records to point the Cinny domain to the Matrix server.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've decided on the domain, **you may need to adjust your DNS** records to point the Cinny domain to the Matrix server.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, you will need to create a CNAME record for `cinny`. See [Configuring DNS](configuring-dns.md) for details about DNS changes.
|
||||
|
||||
If you've adjusted `matrix_client_cinny_hostname`, you will need to adjust your DNS configuration accordingly.
|
||||
**Note**: while there is a `matrix_client_cinny_path_prefix` variable for changing the path where Cinny is served, overriding it is [not possible](https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/3701), because Cinny requires an application rebuild (with a tweaked build config) to be functional under a custom path. You'd need to serve Cinny at a dedicated subdomain.
