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 1.13 or newer
GNU Make

Older Go Versions

You can install a newer version of Go alongside your OS's distribution by following the guide here: https://golang.org/doc/install#extra_versions

Once you have that setup add an enviromnent variable named GO_VERSION and set it to the version you installed (eg, 1.14.1). The Makefile will now use the newer version.

Install

To just download and run:

$ git clone https://github.com/zorchenhimer/MovieNight
$ cd MovieNight
$ make
$ ./MovieNight

Usage

Now you can use OBS to push a stream to the server. Set the stream URL to

rtmp://your.domain.host/live

and enter the stream key.

Now you can view the stream at

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

There is a video only version at

http://your.domain.host:8089/video

and a chat only version at

http://your.domain.host:8089/chat

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

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

Docker

MovieNight provides a Dockerfile and a docker-compose file to run MovieNight using Docker.

Dockerfile

Building the Container

Install Docker, clone the repository and build:

docker build -t movienight .

Running the Container

Run the image once it's built:

docker run -d -p 8089:8089 -p 1935:1935 [-v ./settings.json:/config/settings.json] movienight

Explanation:

-d runs the container in the background.
-p 8089:8089 maps the MovieNight web interface to port 8089 on the server.
-p 1935:1935 maps the RTMP port for OBS to port 1935 (default RTMP port) on the server.
-v ./settings.json:/config/settings.json maps the file settings.json into the container. [OPTIONAL]

docker-compose

docker-compose will automatically build the image, no need to build it manually.

Install Docker and docker-compose, clone the repository and change into the directory ./docker. Then run:

docker-compose up -d

This docker-compose file will create a volume called movienight-config and automatically add the standard settings.json file to it. It also maps port 8089 and 1935 to the same ports of the host.

Notes for Running Using docker-compose

The container needs to be restarted to apply any changes you make to settings.json.
