Getting it goin'

First compile any tools (litestream and lockrun). Note that litestream was last updated circa 2012 and it might build noisily.

bin/setup

Then (probably needs to be run as root), get setup to run via cron:

bin/install

This will create a /var/run directory for lockrun to use, and will then provide some /etc/crontab lines to add.

nginx proxy snippet

We can use nginx to proxy the stream, with SSL:

  location /stream/ {
    #Configure proxy to pass data to upstream service
    proxy_pass http://theboysarebackin.town:8000/;
    #HTTP version 1.1 is needed for sockets
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header Referer $http_referer;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto  $scheme;
    proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
    proxy_read_timeout 86400;
    proxy_connect_timeout 86400;
    proxy_send_timeout 86400;
    send_timeout 86400;
  }
