  <hr>
  <p class="lead">Last night after work I decided to see how easy it would be to run a <a href="https://jointakahe.org" rel="external">Takahē</a> <a href="/space/protocols/activitypub" rel="next">ActivityPub</a> instance under <a href="https://github.com/piku/piku" rel="external">Piku</a>, my tiny <a href="/space/dev/python" rel="next">Python</a>-oriented PaaS.</p>
<p>Self-hosting <a href="https://joinmastodon.org" rel="external">Mastodon</a> is all the rage, but having to deal with a full-blown installation of <a href="/space/dev/ruby" rel="next">Ruby</a> (which is always a pain to install properly, even if you use <code>rbenv</code>), plus the abomination that is <a href="https://sidekiq.org" rel="external">Sidekiq</a> and the overall Rube Goldberg-esque architectural approach that is almost mandatory to deal with the complexities of <a href="/space/protocols/activitypub" rel="next">ActivityPub</a> is just something I don’t want to maintain. Ever. Even inside Docker.</p>
<p>Which is why I have been developing my own <a href="/space/protocols/activitypub" rel="next">ActivityPub</a> server using <a href="https://sanic.dev" rel="external">Sanic</a> and a very lightweight <code>asyncio</code>-based approach at handling all the transactional aspects of <a href="/space/protocols/activitypub" rel="next">ActivityPub</a> atop <a href="/space/db/sqlite" rel="next">SQLite</a>. And let me tell you, I honestly wish the protocol was less about doing what boils down to P2P webhooks with PEM signatures embedded in requests.</p>
<p><a id="anchor-enter-takahe" class="anchor" href="/space/blog/2022/12/21/0900#enter-takahe" rel="anchor"><h2 id="enter-takahe">Enter Takahē</h2></a><figure>
<img src="/media/blog/2022/12/21/0900/bqAzQDKitQgUZ3Uu9MByVxvt8r4=/takahe.png" title="logo"></p>
<figcaption>Blue birds are cool. Well, at least flightless ones.</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>But <a href="https://jointakahe.org" rel="external">Takahē</a> is now aiming to support client apps as of version <code>0.6</code>, is built on <a href="dev/python/django" rel="nofollow">Django</a> (which I have always loved as a framework), and it saves me from the trouble of building <em>everything</em> from scratch, so… I had to try it out.</p>
<p>More to the point, <a href="dev/python/django" rel="nofollow">Django</a> is <em>exactly</em> what <a href="https://github.com/piku/piku" rel="external">Piku</a> was originally designed to run.</p>
<p>Besides running as a <code>WSGI</code> app, <a href="https://jointakahe.org" rel="external">Takahē</a> uses an async stator to handle all the background tasks (which is also <em>exactly</em> the pattern I aim for and designed <a href="https://github.com/piku/piku" rel="external">Piku</a> to support), so I just had to see how easy it was to get it running under <a href="https://github.com/piku/piku" rel="external">Piku</a> on very low-end hardware.</p>
<p><a id="anchor-the-hardware" class="anchor" href="/space/blog/2022/12/21/0900#the-hardware" rel="anchor"><h2 id="the-hardware">The Hardware</h2></a><p>I have a 4GB <a href="/space/hw/raspberry_pi" rel="next">Raspberry Pi</a> 4s set up as an SSD-backed <a href="https://github.com/pimox/pimox7" rel="external">Proxomox</a> server, hosting several different <code>arm64</code> LXC containers I use for developing stuff. I love it because I can use LXC CPU allocations to throttle things and make sure they run fast enough on very low-end hardware, plus I can just snapshot, mess up and restore entire environments.</p></p>
<p>So I set up an Ubuntu 22.04 container with 1GB of RAM and access to 2 CPU cores, capped to 50% overall usage–which is <em>roughly</em> the performance of a <a href="/space/hw/raspberry_pi" rel="next">Raspberry Pi</a> 2 give or take, albeit with a fully 64-bit CPU.</p>
<p>I deployed <a href="https://github.com/piku/piku" rel="external">Piku</a>, set up a CloudFlare tunnel, and then went to town.</p>
<p><a id="anchor-zero-code-changes-required" class="anchor" href="/space/blog/2022/12/21/0900#zero-code-changes-required" rel="anchor"><h2 id="zero-code-changes-required">Zero Code Changes Required</h2></a><p>In short, what I needed to get <a href="https://jointakahe.org" rel="external">Takahē</a> up and running under <a href="https://github.com/piku/piku" rel="external">Piku</a> was to:</p></p>
<ol>
<li>Clone the repository.</li>
<li>Create a <code>production</code> remote pointing to <a href="https://github.com/piku/piku" rel="external">Piku</a>.</li>
<li>Edit the supplied <code>ENV</code> and <code>Procfile</code>.</li>
<li>Do a <code>git push production main</code>.</li>
</ol>
<p>It was <em>that simple</em>.</p>
<p>Here’s the configuration I used, annotated. First the <code>ENV</code> file:</p>

</code></pre></div>
<p>…and only very minor changes to the <code>Procfile</code>:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code><span class="nl">wsgi</span><span class="p">:</span><span class="w"> </span>takahe.wsgi<span class="err">:</span>application<span class="w"></span>
<span class="nl">worker</span><span class="p">:</span><span class="w"> </span>python<span class="w"> </span>manage.py<span class="w"> </span>runstator<span class="w"></span>

</code></pre></div>
<p>In essence, I removed <code>gunicorn</code> (which I could use anyway) to let <code>uWSGI</code> handle HTTP requests and scale down to <em>zero</em> (saving RAM). And yes, <a href="https://github.com/piku/piku" rel="external">Piku</a> also supports <code>release</code> activities, thanks to <a href="https://github.com/chr15m" rel="external">Chris McCormick</a>.</p>
<p>And that was it. <em>Zero</em> code changes. None. <em>Nada</em>. And I can use exactly the same setup on <em>any</em> VPS on the planet, thanks to <a href="https://github.com/piku/piku" rel="external">Piku</a>.</p>
<p>After a little faffing about with the media storage settings (which I got wrong the first time around, since <a href="https://jointakahe.org" rel="external">Takahē</a> also uses <code>/static</code> for its own assets), I had a fully working <a href="/space/protocols/activitypub" rel="next">ActivityPub</a> instance, and, well… John Mastodon just happened to sign up:</p>

<p><a id="anchor-teething-issues" class="anchor" href="/space/blog/2022/12/21/0900#teething-issues" rel="anchor"><h2 id="teething-issues">Teething Issues</h2></a><p><a href="https://jointakahe.org" rel="external">Takahē</a> <em>nearly</em> works with <a href="/space/db/sqlite" rel="next">SQLite</a>, but sadly it relies on <code>JSON_CONTAINS</code>, which is an unsupported feature in <a href="/space/db/sqlite" rel="next">SQLite</a> (but one which <a href="/space/db/postgresql" rel="next">PostgreSQL</a> excels at).</p></p>
<p>The upshot of this was that the stator <code>worker</code> was very sad and bombed out when trying to handle hashtags–but all critical stuff worked, so there might well be a workaroud.</p>
<p>But I took some time after breakfast to migrate the database, and since my <a href="dev/python/django" rel="nofollow">Django</a> skills are rusty, here are my notes:</p>

Even with such measly resources and Linux’s tendency to take up RAM with buffers, <a href="https://jointakahe.org" rel="external">Takahē</a> under <a href="https://github.com/piku/piku" rel="external">Piku</a> is taking up around 100MB per active worker (2 web handlers, plus the stator worker), plus less than 50MB for <a href="/space/db/postgresql" rel="next">PostgreSQL</a> and <code>nginx</code> <em>together</em>.</p></p>
<p>So I’m seeing <em>less than 512MB of RAM</em> in actual use, and a steady &lt;10% CPU load inside the container as the stator keeps picking up inbound updates, handling them (including any outbound requests) and doing all the messy housekeeping associated with <a href="/space/protocols/activitypub" rel="next">ActivityPub</a>:</p>

<p>But here’s the kicker: Since this is being capped inside LXC, that is actually around 5% <em>overall</em> CPU load on the hardware–which should translate to something like 2% of CPU usage on any kind of “real” hardware. </p>
<p>With only one active user for now (but following a few accounts already), this is very, very promising.</p>
<p>I have no real plans to leave <code>mastodon.social</code> for my own domain, but using <a href="https://jointakahe.org" rel="external">Takahē</a> to host a small group of people (or a company) with nothing more than a tiny VPS seems entirely feasible, and is certainly in my future.</p>
<p><a id="anchor-next-steps" class="anchor" href="/space/blog/2022/12/21/0900#next-steps" rel="anchor"><h2 id="next-steps">Next Steps</h2></a><p>Right now, I’m going to try to contribute by testing various iOS clients (I will be using the <a href="https://jointakahe.org" rel="external">Takahē</a> public test instance as well) and do some minor tweaks to my install, namely:</p></p>
<ul>
<li>Setting up <code>nginx</code> caching. Cloudflare is already caching one third of the data, but I want to bulk up this setup so that I can eventually move it to Azure, and I’ve been meaning to add that to <a href="https://github.com/piku/piku" rel="external">Piku</a> anyway.</li>
<li>Fine-tuning the stator to see how it scales up or down (I might want to try to scale it down further).</li>
<li>Trying <code>gunicorn</code> to see if it makes any difference in overall RAM and CPU.</li>
<li>Seeing if I can get it to work on Azure Functions (that is sure to be fun, although the current SDK failed to install on my M1 and I haven’t tried since).</li>
<li>Look at how media assets are handled and see if I can add a patch to support Azure Storage via <a href="https://github.com/rcarmo/aioazstorage" rel="external">my own <code>aioazstorage</code> library</a>.</li>
<li>Deploy on my <a href="https://github.com/rcarmo/azure-k3s-cluster" rel="external">k3s cluster</a>, to get a feel for how much it would cost to run on spot instances.</li>
</ul>
<p>There goes my holiday break, I guess…</p>
<h3 id="update-a-few-days-later"><strong>Update:</strong> A Few Days Later</h3>
<p>I’ve since sorted out <code>nginx</code> caching in <a href="https://github.com/piku/piku" rel="external">Piku</a> (and will soon be merging it to <code>main</code>), which makes things significantly snappier. I’ve also filed <a href="https://github.com/jointakahe/takahe/issues/287" rel="external">#287</a> to improve caching via Cloudflare and <a href="https://github.com/jointakahe/takahe/pull/288" rel="external">#288</a> to have <code>nginx</code> immediately cache assets (which works for me, at least).</p>
<p>Before that, I had some fun tuning stator pauses and filed <a href="https://github.com/jointakahe/takahe/issues/232" rel="external">#232</a>, which resulted in a tweak that lowered idle CPU consumption to a pretty amazing 3% in my test instance.</p>
<p>With the caching tweaks, <code>gunicorn</code> doesn’t have any real advantage against <code>uWSGI</code> workers, although I suspect that may be different in higher-load instances.</p>
<p>I’ve also tossed the source tree into an Azure Function and got it to “work”, but not fully. Right now I’m not sure that is worth pursuing given I still need an external database, but I’m really curious to try again in a few months’ time.</p>
