nginx-vods-go

This is a rewrite of the nginx-vods repository into Go. You may find an example of this script in use at rec.esibun.net

Configuration

• Copy the files to a new directory
• Run go build in the directory
• Fill out the config values in config.go:

const (
  mysql_database string = "database in which you wish to store vod/api information"
  mysql_username string = "username to log into mysql"
  mysql_password string = "password with which to log into mysql"
  
  twitch_username string = "twitch username to fetch titles from"
  nickname string = "nickname displayed in titles/headers"
)

• Optionally, configure your nginx instance to proxy requests to a path or a directory to the nginx-vods-go instance.

Usage

• Head to /update to update the list of videos in the videos directory and generate thumbnails and metadata for each video.
• You may configure nginx-rtmp's on_publish and on_publish_done directives to go to the update URL to additionally update live status as well as automatically updating the video list.
