cdist-type__jitsi_meet(7)
=========================
NAME
----
cdist-type__jitsi_meet - Setup the server-side of Jitsi-Meet.
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This (singleton) type installs and configures jitsi-meet automatically.
It does so by following loosely the official quick-install instructions and
eXO's notes for installing and managing Jitsi Meet instances.
This type also sets up nginx in a way that is compatible with
`__letsencrypt_cert` and assumes that it will only serve Jitsi instances.
You will also need the `__jitsi_meet_domain` type in order to finish setting up
the web frontend (including TLS certificates) and its settings.
You may want to use the `files/ufw` example manifest for a `__ufw`-based
firewall compatible with this type that allows all ports needed by Jitsi-Meet.
Note however that this will not deal with rules for SSH or for TCP port 9888,
which exposes the prometheus exporter if not disabled.
Remember to apply your own rules here, particularly regarding SSH.
This type only works on De{bi,vu}an systems.
It is very important for this type to stay up to date with the software, as
otherwise new deployments or maintenance of existing instances might be
negatively affected.
If you can, please contribute updates to `__jitsi_meet` and
`__jitsi_meet_domain` promptly and regularly.
Alternatively, you can help finance that work; get in touch with the type
authors for that (see below).
This type takes care of adapting the maximum memory used by jicofo and
videobridge in function of the hosts installed memory.
NOTE: This type currently does not deal with setting up coturn.
For that, you might want to check `__coturn` in
https://code.ungleich.ch/ungleich-public/cdist-contrib
In that case, this type should run *after* `__coturn`.
OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
-------------------
abort-conference-count
Only has an effect if the prometheus exporter is enabled and if it is not
empty (default).
If at least this many conferences are active on the server, the type will
bail out before making any changes.
This is useful if you want to avoid service disruptions due to e.g. an SLA.
turn-secret
The shared secret for the TURN server.
turn-server
The hostname of the TURN server.
This will assume that it is listening with TLS on port 443.
BOOLEAN PARAMETERS
------------------
disable-prometheus-exporter
This type enables a prometheus exporter for jitsi by default, if you would
rather not have that, pass this parameter.
The explorer is based on:
https://github.com/systemli/prometheus-jitsi-meet-exporter
secured-domains
If this flag is present, all domains that use this Jitsi instance will
require that an authenticated user starts a meeting.
For information on how this is achieved, see
https://jitsi.github.io/handbook/docs/devops-guide/secure-domain .
You will need to create the users with `__jitsi_meet_user(7)`.
EXAMPLES
--------
.. code-block:: sh
# Setup the firewall for Jitsi-Meet
. "${__global}/type/__jitsi_meet/files/ufw"
export require="__ufw"
# Setup firewall SSH rules as necessary
__ufw_rule ssh --rule 'allow 22/tcp from 10.0.0.0/24'
# Setup Jitsi on this host
__jitsi_meet \
--turn-server "turn.exo.cat" \
--turn-secret "WeNeedGoodSecurity"
