How to update PixelFed storage per user

[subtlecourage]

The title says it all, the default is 1Gig per user, Id like to set it to 10gig per user, any help or ideas on this?

Thank you for that, with that then, I have discovered a bug within the app.

Bug 1: When I change LIMIT_ACCOUNT_SIZE=true to LIMIT_ACCOUNT_SIZE=false, restart the app, then revert the changes - the limit (atleast graphically) never shows back up.

Bug 2: When I change MAX_ACCOUNT_SIZE=1000000 to MAX_ACCOUNT_SIZE=10000000000 and restart the app, the UI still shows the original 1Gb file limit

This was performed with a vanilla install, version 1.6.1

The feature does seem to have some implementation - https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/blob/cdfb6ac25f0090c5e033b2bc813c076aefac9ba4/app/Http/Controllers/Api/ApiV1Controller.php#L1072

So I do see that on 1072

		if(config_cache('pixelfed.enforce_account_limit') == true) {
			$size = Cache::remember($user->storageUsedKey(), now()->addDays(3), function() use($user) {
				return Media::whereUserId($user->id)->sum('size') / 1000;
			});
			$limit = (int) config_cache('pixelfed.max_account_size');
			if ($size >= $limit) {
			   abort(403, 'Account size limit reached.');
			}
		}

However, if you try to disable then re-enable to limit, it wont show back up.

Also, if I change the limit, it wont reflect that in the GUI of any logged in user.

it may be a DB issue with the rapid changes not being refreshed until the UI syncs up again.

@robi So how can I verify that the limit is actually in effect?

[robi]

@subtlecourage trust it, test it, or do some other update that refreshes the UI so it reflects what you expect.

There's no evidence it doesn't work as set in the config.
