# Configuring Dendrite (optional)
|
||||
|
||||
By default, this playbook configures the [Synapse](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse) Matrix server, but you can also use [Dendrite](https://github.com/matrix-org/dendrite).
|
||||
|
||||
**NOTES**:
|
||||
|
||||
- **You can't switch an existing Matrix server's implementation** (e.g. Synapse -> Dendrite). Proceed below only if you're OK with losing data or you're dealing with a server on a new domain name, which hasn't participated in the Matrix federation yet.
|
||||
|
||||
- **homeserver implementations other than Synapse may not be fully functional**. The playbook may also not assist you in an optimal way (like it does with Synapse). Make yourself familiar with the downsides before proceeding
|
||||
|
||||
The playbook provided settings for Dendrite are defined in [`roles/custom/matrix-dendrite/defaults/main.yml`](../roles/custom/matrix-dendrite/defaults/main.yml) and they ultimately end up in the generated `/matrix/dendrite/config/dendrite.yaml` file (on the server). This file is generated from the [`roles/custom/matrix-dendrite/templates/dendrite/dendrite.yaml.j2`](../roles/custom/matrix-dendrite/templates/dendrite/dendrite.yaml.j2) template.
|
||||
|
||||
**If there's an existing variable** which controls a setting you wish to change, you can simply define that variable in your configuration file (`inventory/host_vars/matrix.<your-domain>/vars.yml`) and [re-run the playbook](installing.md) to apply the changes.
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, **if there is no pre-defined variable** for a Dendrite setting you wish to change:
|
||||
|
||||
- you can either **request a variable to be created** (or you can submit such a contribution yourself). Keep in mind that it's **probably not a good idea** to create variables for each one of Dendrite's various settings that rarely get used.
|
||||
|
||||
- or, you can **extend and override the default configuration** ([`dendrite.yaml.j2`](../roles/custom/matrix-dendrite/templates/dendrite/dendrite.yaml.j2)) by making use of the `matrix_dendrite_configuration_extension_yaml` variable. You can find information about this in [`roles/custom/matrix-dendrite/defaults/main.yml`](../roles/custom/matrix-dendrite/defaults/main.yml).
|
||||
|
||||
- or, if extending the configuration is still not powerful enough for your needs, you can **override the configuration completely** using `matrix_dendrite_configuration` (or `matrix_dendrite_configuration_yaml`). You can find information about this in [`roles/custom/matrix-dendrite/defaults/main.yml`](../roles/custom/matrix-dendrite/defaults/main.yml).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
To use Dendrite, you **generally** need the following additional `vars.yml` configuration:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
matrix_homeserver_implementation: dendrite
|
||||
```
