# matrix-synapse
Deploy [synapse](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/), a matrix homeserver implementation in python, using ansible.
The role supports deployment both as systemd-services or as a docker container.
## Requirements
The following should be present on the target system when deploying synapse as a systemd service:
* `pip`
* `systemd`
* `rsyslogd`
* `logrotate`
If deploying synapse in a docker container, check that you have `docker` and the corresponding python-bindings (usually
`python3-docker`) installed.
