I want to self-host my own private firefox sync, how ?

submitted by

I found these servers, but they all appear to be broken ?

https://github.com/balu-/FSyncMS/
https://github.com/posativ/weave-minimal
https://github.com/mozilla-services/syncserver

Is there one that works ?
And since they all seem to break eventually, how do I set firefox to not autoupdate past the last compatible version of my sync server, if I get one to work ?

thanks

Did you try this one? It was linked from the Mozilla services repo.

Thanks I didn't know about that one, hopefully it works !

I can’t speak to the quality of this repo, but at first glance it seems to make running it in Docker pretty easy: <https://github.com/dan-r/syncstorage-rs-docker&gt;

It looks like a number of people have done something similar: <https://hub.docker.com/search?q=syncstorage-rs&gt;

I didn't know this was possible! I will be giving these a go when I get home.
