- etc.
Some libs:
- libjitsi

- jitsi-utils
- etc.
Client components:
- jitsi meet electron
- jitsi android/ios

Conf
Base conf:
the following is used in videobridge.conf: jicoco/MucClientConfiguration
How the new configuration is read in jicoco:
https://github.com/jitsi/jicoco/blob/master/jicoco-config/src/main/kotlin/org/jitsi/config/JitsiConfig.kt#L83-L91
They use this library: https://github.com/lightbend/config
We are particularly interested by: https://github.com/lightbend/config#standard-behavior
Using 'application.conf' with classpath does not seem to work.
But, specifying the file path as -Dconfig.file=/etc/jitsi/jicofo.conf
works!
Some parameters are also set independently of lightbend hocon config.
They are seen in jicofo entrypoint:
https://github.com/jitsi/jicofo/blob/master/src/main/java/org/jitsi/jicofo/Main.java
Many of these parameters can be in fact read from the HOCON file except one: the --secret
parameter or the JICOFO_SECRET
env variable.
But we can see this is a deprecated thing, it has been already removed from master: c9e5b50a8b
For now (as per v5390) we will keep JICOFO_SECRET
environment variable but will assume no other environment variable is set
But maybe this value is deprecated: the check is still here but it is not used anymore?!
Generate certs with prosody
prosodyctl cert generate auth.jitsi
prosodyctl cert generate jitsi
An example prosody configuration file
https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/blob/master/doc/example-config-files/prosody.cfg.lua.example
but this one is not the one used by the debian postinst script instead, we should look at this one: https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/blob/master/doc/debian/jitsi-meet-prosody/prosody.cfg.lua-jvb.example
Jitsi can be configured to authenticated through tokens, the postinst file is here: https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/blob/master/debian/jitsi-meet-tokens.postinst
