- Developers building self-hosted streaming services
- Worth noticing
- The certificate deploy hook sends nginx a HUP through Docker’s Unix socket using Python’s standard library, avoiding a restart.
Field notes
The deployment separates public ingress from internal services: nginx-rtmp accepts OBS pushes on port 1935 and serves HLS and the player over 443, while auth, chat, and payments have no host port mappings. The author also describes auditing the code and fixing CORS, WebSocket-origin, and database-timeout issues. These are presented as implemented details of a system the author says they still operate.
