Allow override for requesting specific worker types for Complement on command line. (#14324)
* Expose getting SYNAPSE_WORKER_TYPES from external, allowing override of workers requested.

* Add WORKER_TYPES variable option to complement.sh script that passes requested workers into start_for_complement.sh entrypoint.

* Update docs to reflect this new ability.

* Changelog

* Don't rely on soft wrapping to format long strings

Good idea dklimpel. Thanks for catching that.

Unified Complement image for Synapse

This is an image for testing Synapse with the Complement integration test suite. It contains some insecure defaults that are only suitable for testing purposes, so please don't use this image for a production server.

This multi-purpose image is built on top of Dockerfile-workers in the parent directory and can be switched using environment variables between the following configurations:

  • Monolithic Synapse with SQLite (default, or SYNAPSE_COMPLEMENT_DATABASE=sqlite)
  • Monolithic Synapse with Postgres (SYNAPSE_COMPLEMENT_DATABASE=postgres)
  • Workerised Synapse with Postgres (SYNAPSE_COMPLEMENT_DATABASE=postgres and SYNAPSE_COMPLEMENT_USE_WORKERS=true)

The image is self-contained; it contains an integrated Postgres, Redis and Nginx.

How to get Complement to pass the environment variables through

To pass these environment variables, use Complement's COMPLEMENT_SHARE_ENV_PREFIX variable to configure an environment prefix to pass through, then prefix the above options with that prefix.

Example:

COMPLEMENT_SHARE_ENV_PREFIX=PASS_ PASS_SYNAPSE_COMPLEMENT_DATABASE=postgres

Consult scripts-dev/complement.sh in the repository root for a real example.
