## Installation
+**Please don't install PeerTube for production on a small device behind a low bandwidth connection (example: a Raspberry PI behind your ADSL link) because it could slow down the fediverse.**
+
### Dependencies
Follow the steps of the [dependencies guide](dependencies.md).
### Webserver
+We only provide official configuration files for Nginx.
+
Copy the nginx configuration template:
```
$ sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube
```
-If you want to set https with Let's Encrypt please follow the steps of [this guide](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-secure-nginx-with-let-s-encrypt-on-ubuntu-16-04).
-
-An example of the nginx configuration could be:
+Activate the configuration file:
```
-server {
- listen 80;
- listen [::]:80;
- server_name peertube.example.com;
-
- access_log /var/log/nginx/peertube.example.com.access.log;
- error_log /var/log/nginx/peertube.example.com.error.log;
-
- rewrite ^ https://$server_name$request_uri? permanent;
-}
-
-server {
- listen 443 ssl http2;
- listen [::]:443 ssl http2;
- server_name peertube.example.com;
-
- # For example with Let's Encrypt
- ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/peertube.example.com/fullchain.pem;
- ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/peertube.example.com/privkey.pem;
- ssl_trusted_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/peertube.example.com/chain.pem;
-
- access_log /var/log/nginx/peertube.example.com.access.log;

- if ($request_method = 'OPTIONS') {
- add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' '*';
- add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' 'GET, OPTIONS';

- alias /var/www/peertube/storage/videos;
- }
+To generate the certificate for your domain as required to make https work you can use [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/):
- # Websocket tracker
- location /tracker/socket {
- # Peers send a message to the tracker every 15 minutes
- # Don't close the websocket before this time
- proxy_read_timeout 1200s;
- proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
- proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
- proxy_http_version 1.1;
- proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
- proxy_set_header Host $host;
- proxy_pass http://localhost:9000;
- }

+```
+$ sudo systemctl stop nginx
+$ sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube # Comment ssl_certificate and ssl_certificate_key lines
+$ sudo certbot --authenticator standalone --installer nginx --post-hook "systemctl start nginx"
+$ sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube # Uncomment ssl_certificate and ssl_certificate_key lines
+$ sudo systemctl reload nginx
```
+Remember your certificate will expire in 90 days, and thus needs renewal.
-Activate the configuration file:
+Now you have the certificates you can reload nginx:
```
-$ sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/peertube
$ sudo systemctl reload nginx
```
-### Systemd
+### systemd
-Copy the nginx configuration template:
+If your OS uses systemd, copy the configuration template:
```
$ sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/systemd/peertube.service /etc/systemd/system/
$ sudo vim /etc/systemd/system/peertube.service
```
-It should look like this:
-
-```
-[Unit]
-Description=PeerTube daemon
-After=network.target
-
-[Service]
-Type=simple
-Environment=NODE_ENV=production
-Environment=NODE_CONFIG_DIR=/var/www/peertube/config
-User=peertube
-Group=peertube
-ExecStart=/usr/bin/npm start
-WorkingDirectory=/var/www/peertube/peertube-latest
-StandardOutput=syslog
-StandardError=syslog
-SyslogIdentifier=peertube
-Restart=always
-
-[Install]
-WantedBy=multi-user.target
-```
-
Tell systemd to reload its config:
$ sudo systemctl enable peertube
```
-### Run
+Run:
```
$ sudo systemctl start peertube
$ sudo journalctl -feu peertube
```
+### FreeBSD
+
+If you're using FreeBSD, copy the startup script and update rc.conf:
+
+```
+$ sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/freebsd/peertube /usr/local/etc/rc.d/
+$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/peertube
+$ sudo echo peertube_enable="YES" >> /etc/rc.conf
+```
+
+Run:
+
+```
+$ sudo service peertube start
+```
+
### Administrator
The administrator password is automatically generated and can be found in the
$ cd /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest && NODE_CONFIG_DIR=/var/www/peertube/config NODE_ENV=production npm run reset-password -- -u root
```
+Now you can subscribe to the mailing list for PeerTube administrators: https://framalistes.org/sympa/subscribe/peertube-admin
+
## Upgrade
+#### Auto (minor versions only)
+
+```
+$ cd /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/scripts && sudo -u peertube ./upgrade.sh
+$ sudo systemctl restart peertube && sudo journalctl -fu peertube
+```
+
+#### Manually
+
Make a SQL backup
```
```
$ sudo -u peertube cp /var/www/peertube/versions/peertube-${VERSION}/config/default.yaml /var/www/peertube/config/default.yaml
-$ diff /var/www/peertube/versions/peertube-${VERSION}/config//production.yaml.example /var/www/peertube/config/production.yaml
+$ diff /var/www/peertube/versions/peertube-${VERSION}/config/production.yaml.example /var/www/peertube/config/production.yaml
```
Change the link to point to the latest version:
```
$ cd /var/www/peertube && \
- sudo rm ./peertube-latest && \
+ sudo unlink ./peertube-latest && \
sudo -u peertube ln -s versions/peertube-${VERSION} ./peertube-latest
```
```
$ OLD_VERSION="v0.42.42" && SQL_BACKUP_PATH="backup/sql-peertube_prod-2018-01-19T10:18+01:00.bak" && \
- cd /var/www/peertube && rm ./peertube-latest && \
+ cd /var/www/peertube && unlink ./peertube-latest && \
sudo -u peertube ln -s "versions/peertube-$OLD_VERSION" peertube-latest && \
pg_restore -U peertube -W -h localhost -c -d peertube_prod "$SQL_BACKUP_PATH"
sudo systemctl restart peertube
