For this installation, we need the following prerequisites:
Now, let's start the installation procedures:
Pls before downloading check this link and grab the latest stable version…
wget https://github.com/jitsi/docker-jitsi-meet/archive/refs/tags/stable-8960.tar.gztar -zxvf stable-8960.tar.gzcd docker-jitsi-meet-stable-8960cp env.example .envnano .env- You can edit http and https ports in that file
- You can change your time zone as you wish
- Also please edit the public URL of this service based on your online DNS
- Save the file and exit from NANO editor
Note: In your server ports 10000, 8080, and 8888 should be available
Now for generating the needed passwords in .env file use the below command
./gen-passwords.shNow, by using the below command create the needed folders
mkdir -p ~/.jitsi-meet-cfg/{web,transcripts,prosody/config,prosody/prosody-plugins-custom,jicofo,jvb,jigasi,jibri}Now you can start the container
docker-compose up -dDefinitely, by using the NPM you can use the https for this service without any issues which you can find the details in my related video on Youtube.
If you want to secure this Jitsi service and put authentication on it please first uncomment the below lines.env file using nano editor:
ENABLE_AUTH=1
ENABLE_GUESTS=1
AUTH_TYPE=internal
and then by using the below commands create your host access credentials:
docker-compose exec prosody /bin/bashprosodyctl --config /config/prosody.cfg.lua register milad meet.jitsi passwordNote: you can change "milad" with your desired username and the “password” with your desired password.
As I told in the related video you can also use the LDAP authentication for this service which is a little bit more complicated.
Enjoy…
