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
