Jitsi Meet
![]() 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
Java/Maven setup
Maven is used to build videobridge and jicofo. Shell scripts included in software use bash. Jitsi uses jdk8, so should probably stick with that version. If you get fancy and use a newer jdk it might not work.
# apk add openjdk8 # apk add maven # apk add bash # apk add bash-completion # sync

package is available in the testing
