Jitsi is available as jitsi-meet on Alpine Linux v3.21-Edge on x86_64, aarch64 and s390x architectures only, from the community repositories.

WIP WIP Version:current v3.22.x v3.21.x

Todo: I will return and update this page with config files and rc scripts, but it is similar to the Debian config. Also Todo: Nginx reverse proxy / bosh config.


Prosody

prosody is only available in the community repositories of v3.20-Edge for x86_64 architecture.

# apk add prosody

Edit /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua

Generate certificates: Edit /etc/prosody/certs/openssl.cnf

[FQDN] means www.example.com

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

Edit file, and make sure that everything is correct.

# make [FQDN].key

For a self-signed certificate:

# make [FQDN].crt

or, for signing request:

# make [FQDN].csr

Repeat the certification process for auth.[FQDN] i.e. auth.www.example.com.

If you self-signed the certificate, put it in the certs folder so that 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
