# MovieNight stream server

This is a single-instance streaming server with chat.  Originally written to
replace Rabbit as the platform for watching movies with a group of people
online.

## Build requirements

- Go 1.12 or newer
- GNU Make

## Install

To just download and run:
```bash
go get -u -v github.com/zorchenhimer/MovieNight

MovieNight  -l :8089 -k longSecurityKey
```

To download and compile for development:
```bash
git clone github.com/zorchenhimer/MovieNight
cd MovieNight
make
./MovieNight -l :8089 -k longSecurityKey
```

## Usage

Now you can use OBS to push a stream to the server.  Set the stream URL to
```text
rtmp://your.domain.host/live
```
and enter the stream key.

Now you can view the stream at

```text
http://your.domain.host:8089/
```

The default listen port is `:8089`.  It can be changed by providing a new port
at startup:

```text
Usage of .\MovieNight.exe:
  -k string
        Stream key, to protect your stream
  -l string
        host:port of the MovieNight (default ":8089")
```
