Jitsi Admin in Docker

Contributor Covenant Crowdin

Jitsi-Admin is now available as docker installation

Why?

the jitsi-admin is getting bigger and bigger. first we started just with an apache server. Then the keycloak came to make authentification easier. BUt the installation getting harder and harder.

Now we added mercure rocks hub to enable real time communication. This all leads to a bigger complexity. To make the installation as easy as before, we created a new docker installer.

Installation

Clone this repo in your directory. We suggest to clone it into a persistant directory.

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/H2-invent/jitsi-admin.git
cd jitsi-admin

From here you can decide if you want to use the jitsi-admin only for local testing or if you want to run it with a real Domain.

Important: The installation is not production ready. So you have to apply your own security rules.

I want to harden my keycloak

The keycloak is accessible from the domain: http/s://keycloak.. Just klick on Admin console and then the username: admin and the password is saved in the file docker.conf in the Parameter: KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_PW Here you can now set up you keycloak as wished.

I want to see the traefik Services:

Go to http/s://traefik.yourDomain.com

Restriction

  • Behind a reverse proxy please make sure you redirect all requests correcly to the jitsi-admin installation. TLS-Encyrption mybe a little bit difficult but it is in your hand if the reverse proxy or the jitsi-admin is the TLS Endpoint.
