Jitsi Meet

This material is obsolete ... Jitsi seems to be available in the testing repository (Discuss)

NOTE: this will build the applications required for a jitsi-meet server on Alpine Linux. Prosody (apk) plus videobridge and jicofo using latest 'stable' on jitsi GH repo. Tested on 'edge', should work on 3.12 (not tested)

NOTE TODO: I will return and update this page with config files and rc scripts. But it's similar to the Debian config. Also TODO nginx reverse proxy / bosh config.

Prosody

# apk add prosody

edit /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua

generate certs: Edit /etc/prosody/certs/openssl.cnf

[FQDN] means www.example.com

# cd /etc/prosody/certs
# make [FQDN].cnf

edit file and make sure everything is correct

# make [FQDN].key

for self-signed certificate:

# make [FQDN].crt

or, for signing request:

# make [FQDN].csr

NOTE: repeat cert process for: auth.[FQDN] (ie, auth.www.example.com)

If you self-signed the cert, put it in the certs folder so it will be trusted on the local machine.

# ln -sf /etc/prosody/certs/auth.[FQDN] /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/
# update-ca-certificates -f

# prosodyctl start

# prosodyctl register focus auth.[FQDN] YOURSECRET3

(YOURSECRET3 is from cfg file /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua)

# prosodyctl restart
