In either case, users need to have access to the Nextcloud service defined by the authorizedService attribute.

owncloud__ldap_login_filter_attributes

Refer to the official ownCloud documentation for details.

owncloud__ldap_login_filter_attributes: ''
owncloud__ldap_group_assoc_attribute

Attribute which ownCloud uses to match members of the group.

Possible values:

memberUid

Useful for OpenLDAP with PosixGroups. Attribute contains only UID of the user.

uniqueMember

Attribute contains full DN of the user.

member

FIXME Attribute contains full DN of the user.

owncloud__ldap_group_assoc_attribute: 'member'
owncloud__home_folder_naming_rule

By default, the ownCloud server creates the user directory in your ownCloud data directory and gives it the ownCloud username, .e.g /var/www/owncloud/data/alice. You may want to override this setting and name it after an LDAP attribute value. The attribute can also return an absolute path, e. g. /mnt/storage43/alice. Leave it empty for default behavior. Refer to the official ownCloud documentation for details.

owncloud__home_folder_naming_rule: 'attr:uid'

Advanced settings

owncloud__ldap_cache_ttl

A cache is introduced to avoid unnecessary LDAP traffic, for example caching usernames so they don’t have to be looked up for every page, and speeding up loading of the Users page. Saving the configuration empties the cache. The time is given in seconds.

Note that almost every PHP request requires a new connection to the LDAP server. If you require fresh PHP requests we recommend defining a minimum lifetime of 15s or so, rather than completely eliminating the cache.

Refer to the official ownCloud documentation for details.

owncloud__ldap_cache_ttl: '600'

Expert settings

owncloud__ldap_expert_username_attr

The internal username is the identifier in ownCloud for LDAP users. By default it will be created from the UUID attribute. The UUID attribute ensures that the username is unique, and that characters do not need to be converted. Only these characters are allowed: [a-zA-Z0-9_.@-]. Other characters are replaced with their ASCII equivalents, or are simply omitted.

The LDAP backend ensures that there are no duplicate internal usernames in ownCloud, i.e. that it is checking all other activated user backends (including local ownCloud users). On collisions a random number (between 1000 and 9999) will be attached to the retrieved value. For example, if alice exists, the next username may be alice_1337.

The internal username is the default name for the user home folder in ownCloud. It is also a part of remote URLs, for instance for all DAV services.

You can override all of this with the Internal Username setting. Leave it empty for default behaviour. Changes will affect only newly mapped LDAP users.

For a Microsoft Windows environment, putting this:

1owncloud__ldap_expert_username_attr: 'sAMAccountName'

in your inventory might come in handy to use the user names from AD as user names in ownCloud.

owncloud__ldap_expert_username_attr: ''
owncloud__ldap_config_id

The configuration database configID to use for the LDAP configuration managed by the role.

owncloud__ldap_config_id: '{{ ansible_local.owncloud.ldap_config_id

owncloud__ldap_quota_attribute

owncloud__theme_name_html: '{{ owncloud__theme_name }}'
owncloud__theme_entity_name

Entity string for your ownCloud. For example the name of your company. This string is used in the footer and the copyright.

owncloud__theme_entity_name: 'DebOps'
owncloud__theme_base_url

Base URL to get more information about your ownCloud. By default, owncloud__theme_entity_name links to this URL on the login page. Use an empty string to use the default URL pointing to the ownCloud website.

owncloud__theme_base_url: 'https://github.com/debops/ansible-owncloud'
owncloud__theme_slogan

Slogan of your ownCloud. This is shown by default on the bottom of the login page. It should not contain </br> (newline) because at least ownCloud as of version 9.0 can’t automatically adjust to that. Use an empty string to use the default slogan provided by ownCloud.

See the ownCloud Trademark Guidelines section on 'Apps, Product and Service Names, and Compatibility References' for more suggestions.

owncloud__theme_slogan: 'Powered by <a href="{{ owncloud__variant_url_map[owncloud__variant] }}">{{ owncloud__variant_name_map[owncloud__variant] }}</a>'

Short version of the footer. The value can contain arbitrary PHP and HTML code. You will need to take care of quotes yourself.

owncloud__theme_footer_short: |
  'Setup by <a href="' . $this->getBaseUrl() . '" target="_blank\">' . $this->getEntity() . '</a><br/>' .
  '{{ owncloud__theme_slogan }}'

Long version of the footer. See owncloud__theme_footer_short for details. TODO: What exactly is the difference?

owncloud__theme_footer_long: '{{ owncloud__theme_footer_short }}'

Return statement the buildDocLinkToKey function which allows you to alter the URL used when referring to the documentation. The value can contain arbitrary PHP and HTML code. You will need to take care of quotes yourself. The reason for not going with the ownCloud default is that it seems to point to 8.0 even for the 9.0.2 release. Seems to be a bug.

owncloud__theme_doc_link_to_key: '$this->getDocBaseUrl() . ''/server/{{ owncloud__release }}/go.php?to='' . $key'
owncloud__theme_copy_files

Global dictionary of additional files to place in the theme. This variable is intended to be used in Ansible’s global inventory. More specific variables can overrule less specific variables. The key is the target file path in the ownCloud theme directory. The state value allows to make files absent. All other options correspond to the options of the Ansible ansible.builtin.copy module.

To change the logo on the login page you can use:

 1owncloud__theme_copy_files:
 2
 3  'core/img/logo.svg':
 4    ## Prefer SVG: https://github.com/owncloud/core/issues/5676#issuecomment-27649493

 7  'core/css/styles.css':

12        width: 250px;
13        height: 121px;
14      }

in your inventory.

owncloud__theme_copy_files: {}
owncloud__theme_copy_files_host_group

Host group dictionary of additional files to place in the theme. This variable is intended to be used in a host inventory group of Ansible (only one host group is supported). Refer to owncloud__theme_copy_files for more details.

owncloud__theme_copy_files_host_group: {}
owncloud__theme_copy_files_host

Host dictionary of additional files to place in the theme. This variable is intended to be used in the inventory of hosts. Refer to owncloud__theme_copy_files for more details.

owncloud__theme_copy_files_host: {}
owncloud__theme_conf_map

This configuration ends up in theme.config.php and override the values from config.php. Refer to the official ownCloud documentation for details.

owncloud__theme_conf_map:
  theme: '{{ owncloud__theme_active }}'

Webserver

owncloud__webserver

Variable containing the webserver which should be used. Refer to Getting started for how to switch webservers.

owncloud__webserver: '{{ ansible_local.owncloud.webserver

owncloud__apache_modules

Variable containing the used webserver which can be used. Refer to Getting started for how to switch webservers. TODO: Enable on Debian package scripts to ensure that the PHP module is enabled as the name of the module is not deterministic with php5 and php7.0.

owncloud__apache_modules: []
owncloud__nginx_client_body_temp_path

Defines the directory where Nginx will temporary store files holding client request bodies. Refer to the the Nginx documentation for details.

The default (empty string) is to not change the default of the webserver. TODO: Confirm that this variable does what it says.

owncloud__nginx_client_body_temp_path: ''
owncloud__nginx_access_log_assets

Should the access to assets be logged by nginx?

owncloud__nginx_access_log_assets: True

PHP

owncloud__php_temp_path

Directory which PHP will use as temp directory.

In case /tmp has limited space (for example is a ramdisk) or is otherwise restricted then it is recommended to change the temp directory which PHP uses to a path with more space available. This directory is used to cache uploaded files when using Apache. See also owncloud__temp_path.

Empty string will not change the temp directory of PHP.

owncloud__php_temp_path: ''
owncloud__php_output_buffering

Output buffering set in PHP, with amount set in megabytes. Refer to the official ownCloud documentation for details.

owncloud__php_output_buffering: '0'
