Quick Jibri Installer

Bash installer for Jitsi Meet standalone along with Jibri on supported Ubuntu LTS based systems using nginx as default webserver.

Usage

As for our current latest release, as we have integrated more and more features, we highly recommend to use a purpose specific-newly spawn server to host the jitsi-meet framework, making sure you stick to the requirements and recommendations as much as possible, in order to avoid issues.

WARNING: Please, avoid using this installer on your everyday GNU/Linux system, as this is an unsupported use and it will likely BREAK YOUR SYSTEM, so please don't.

Main Server

git clone https://github.com/switnet-ltd/quick-jibri-installer
cd quick-jibri-installer
sudo bash quick_jibri_installer.sh

QJI - Setup

If your server meet the necessary resources, then at the end on the installer you should have a working Jitsi Meet Server along with a Jibri server ready to record.

Additional jibris need to be set on separate servers, only necesary on simultaneous recordings for that please use add-jibri-node.sh.

Add Jibri node

Copy the modified add-jibri-node.sh file from your early cloned installation directory once the installation is completed, to the new server meant to be a jibri node using your preferred method, then run it

WARNING: This file contains sensitive information from your setup, please handle with care.

bash add-jibri-node.sh

Please remember that on newer versions, jibri will record on FHD (1920x1080) so please make sure your server have enough CPU power in orther to handle the encoding load.

Add JVB2 node

Copy the modified add-jvb2-node.sh file from your early cloned installation directory once the installation is completed, to the new server meant to be a jibri node using your preferred method, then run it

WARNING: This file contains sensitive information from your setup, please handle with care.
