# --- Version and artefact ---------------------------------------------------
# Bump monero_version and monero_sha256 TOGETHER. The sha256 here is a second,
# in-git assertion; the one that actually matters is the grep against the
# GPG-signed hashes.txt in install.yml. Having both means a version bump cannot
# be done silently - the checksum has to move in the same diff.
monero_version: "0.18.5.1"
monero_platform: "linux-x64"
monero_tarball: "monero-{{ monero_platform }}-v{{ monero_version }}.tar.bz2"
monero_url: "https://downloads.getmonero.org/cli/{{ monero_tarball }}"
monero_sha256: "22a7dda7b0cb699fdd6b7674c3b4a4465b337cc98a54983523b759e1e7cc9958"

# The signed list of checksums for every published Monero artefact.

# binaryFate, the release signing key. The .asc is vendored in files/ rather
# than fetched at deploy time: a trust root downloaded over the network at the
# moment you need it is not a trust root. The fingerprint is asserted after
# import anyway, so a swapped file cannot go unnoticed.
monero_signing_fingerprint: "81AC591FE9C4B65C5806AFC3F0AF4D462A0BDF92"

# --- Service user -----------------------------------------------------------
monero_user: monero
monero_group: monero

# --- Directories ------------------------------------------------------------
monero_conf_dir: /etc/monero
monero_log_dir: /var/log/monero
monero_bin_dir: /usr/local/bin

# The blockchain. This is the mount point of the dedicated 500 GB disk, NOT a
# directory on the 10 GB root filesystem - see storage.yml.
monero_data_dir: /var/lib/monero

# --- The data disk ----------------------------------------------------------
# The whole device, no partition table: this disk has one job and a partition
# table would only add a layer that can disagree with itself.
#
# monero_data_device is used ONLY to create the filesystem, once. Everything
# afterwards - fstab, the mount, the systemd unit - goes by UUID, because
# /dev/sdX ordering is decided by the kernel at boot and is not a stable name
# for anything. This estate has been bitten eight times by an identifier that
# was written down once and then moved.
monero_data_device: /dev/sdb
monero_data_fstype: ext4
# -m 0: the 5% ext4 reserve exists to stop root-owned daemons deadlocking a full
# root filesystem. On a dedicated data disk it is 25 GB thrown away.
monero_data_mkfs_opts: "-m 0 -L monero-data"

# --- Network ----------------------------------------------------------------
# P2P is OUTBOUND ONLY. No inbound port is published from the edge host, so the
# node dials out to peers and never receives. It syncs and serves us completely;
# it just does not relay for strangers. no-igd follows from that: with nothing
# forwarded there is nothing for UPnP to do but tell the router about us.
monero_p2p_port: 18080

# Unrestricted RPC, loopback only: administration and the health check.
monero_rpc_bind_ip: "127.0.0.1"
monero_rpc_port: 18081

# The RESTRICTED RPC is a second server on its own port, reachable over the
# tailnet and published by Caddy on the edge host. This is deliberately
# rpc-restricted-bind-port and NOT `restricted-rpc=1` - the latter would
# restrict the loopback server too, and then we could not ask our own node
# anything useful.
#
# The authoritative value for the live deployment is in
# host_vars/monerod_box_local/main.yml, which the edge play also reads; the
# value here is the upstream default so the role still works standalone.
monero_restricted_rpc_port: 18089

# Peer counts kept modest on purpose: this VM has 2 GB of RAM. See README.
monero_out_peers: 16
monero_in_peers: 8

# --- RPC credentials --------------------------------------------------------
# monerod's --rpc-login is HTTP Digest (contrib/epee/src/http_auth.cpp) and the
# same login guards BOTH the loopback and the restricted server. Feather sends
# these as the node username/password.
monero_rpc_user: ""
monero_rpc_password: ""

# monerod.conf holds the RPC login, so --diff is suppressed by default.
# Pass -e monero_reveal_config=true to see what moved.
monero_reveal_config: false

# --- Health check -----------------------------------------------------------
# WHERE TO REPORT HEALTH — the one place to plug in monitoring. Empty means
# check, exit honestly, report nowhere. Any endpoint accepting an HTTP ping
# works; nothing here is specific to a monitoring product.
healthcheck_push_url: ""
# Bearer token for the Gatus external endpoint. Required whenever a push URL
# is set: Gatus rejects an unauthenticated push with 401.
healthcheck_push_token: ""

# WHEN TO CHECK. Daily, at a fixed hour, rather than an OnUnitActiveSec
# interval that drifts with every restart.
#
# Prefixed because the generic `healthcheck` role owns the unprefixed
# healthcheck_on_calendar; an unprefixed default here would shadow it for any
# play that includes both.
#
# Paired with the 26h Gatus heartbeat in
# infra/403_service_probe_registration.yml. Change one and you must change the
# other: the window has to stay above the interval or the check alerts on its
# own jitter.
monero_healthcheck_on_calendar: "*-*-* 05:00:00"
