Seahub Settings

Sending Email Notifications on Seahub

A few features work better if it can send email notifications, such as notifying users about new messages. If you want to setup email notifications, please add the following lines to seahub_settings.py (and set your email server).

EMAIL_USE_TLS = False
EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.example.com'        # smpt server
EMAIL_HOST_USER = '[email protected]'    # username and domain
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'password'    # password
EMAIL_PORT = '25'
DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = EMAIL_HOST_USER
SERVER_EMAIL = EMAIL_HOST_USER

If you are using Gmail as email server, use following lines:

EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.com'
EMAIL_HOST_USER = '[email protected]'
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'password'
EMAIL_PORT = 587
DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = EMAIL_HOST_USER
SERVER_EMAIL = EMAIL_HOST_USER

Note: If your Email service still can not work, you may checkout the log file logs/seahub.log to see what may cause the problem. For complete email notification list, please refer to Email notification list.

Note2: If you want to use the Email service without authentication leaf EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD blank ('').

Memcached

Seahub caches items(avatars, profiles, etc) on file system by default(/tmp/seahub_cache/). You can replace with Memcached. After install python-memcache, add the following lines to seahub_settings.py.

CACHES = {
    'default': {
        'BACKEND': 'django.core.cache.backends.memcached.MemcachedCache',
        'LOCATION': '127.0.0.1:11211',
    }
}

Password Options

With these settings you can ensure strong passwords for Libraries and user accounts.

# mininum length for password of encrypted library
REPO_PASSWORD_MIN_LENGTH = 8

# mininum length for user's password
USER_PASSWORD_MIN_LENGTH = 6

# LEVEL based on four types of input:
# num, upper letter, lower letter, other symbols
# '3' means password must have at least 3 types of the above.
USER_PASSWORD_STRENGTH_LEVEL = 3

# default False, only check USER_PASSWORD_MIN_LENGTH
# when True, check password strength level, STRONG(or above) is allowed
USER_STRONG_PASSWORD_REQUIRED = False

Cloud Mode

You should enable cloud mode if you use Seafile with an unknown user base. It disables the organization tab in Seahub's website to ensure that users can't access the user list. Cloud mode provides some nice features like sharing content with unregistered users and sending invitations to them. Therefore you also want to enable user registration.

# Enable cloude mode and hide `Organization` tab.
CLOUD_MODE = True

# Enalbe registration on web.
ENABLE_SIGNUP = True

If you want to use Seafile within your organization just disable cloud mode.
