mkultra

A live chat server for podcasters with throwaway, carryout or BYO identities.

This software is alpha. Do not expect the instructions to make sense at this stage.

Description

An mkultra server has three parts:

• Websocket server
• Web server
• Database

After compiling with cargo build, you spin up the websocket server and the web server:

./target/debug/mkultra-socket 2083

./target/debug/mkultra-web 8080 `openssl rand -hex 21`

These should both be behind an nginx reverse proxy with appropriate TLS certs:

server {
        listen [::]:8443 ssl ipv6only=on; # managed by Certbot
        listen 8443 ssl; # managed by Certbot

        root /var/www/html;

        index index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;

        server_name [servername]; # managed by Certbot

        location / {
            proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
            proxy_set_header Connection "Upgrade";
            proxy_http_version 1.1;
            proxy_set_header Host $host;
            proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:2083;
        }

        ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/[servername]/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
        ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/[servername]/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot
        include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf; # managed by Certbot
        ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem; # managed by Certbot
}
