## HTTPS (Let’s Encrypt, Python-only)
|
## HTTPS (optional)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This server can be served over HTTPS by running `uvicorn` with `--ssl-certfile` and `--ssl-keyfile`.
|
You can run behind a reverse proxy/ingress, or run `uvicorn` with TLS directly:
|
||||||
To obtain/renew a trusted cert from Let’s Encrypt **without installing system certbot**, this repo includes a small wrapper that uses the **`certbot` Python package**.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### 1) Issue a certificate (HTTP-01 standalone)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Requirements:
|
|
||||||
- Your domain’s DNS `A/AAAA` records must point to this machine.
|
|
||||||
- Port **80** must be reachable from the internet for the ACME challenge.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
```bash
|
||||||
python3 -m pip install -r python_video_server/requirements.txt
|
uvicorn python_video_server.server:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 443 \
|
||||||
|
--ssl-certfile /path/to/fullchain.pem \
|
||||||
# Staging by default (recommended first). Add --production when it works.
|
--ssl-keyfile /path/to/privkey.pem
|
||||||
sudo -E python3 -m python_video_server.letsencrypt certonly \
|
|
||||||
--email [email protected] \
|
|
||||||
--domains example.com,www.example.com
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### 1b) Issue a certificate (DNS-01 manual TXT record — no port 80, no root)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If your host already uses port **80** (or you don't have permission to bind it), use DNS-01.
|
|
||||||
This does **not** require any inbound ports on the machine, but you must be able to edit DNS for the domain.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
python3 -m pip install -r python_video_server/requirements.txt
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Add --production when staging works.
|
|
||||||
python3 -m python_video_server.letsencrypt certonly \
|
|
||||||
--challenge dns \
|
|
||||||
--email [email protected] \
|
|
||||||
--domains example.com,www.example.com
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
During issuance, certbot will prompt you to create a TXT record like:
|
|
||||||
- Name: `_acme-challenge.example.com`
|
|
||||||
- Type: `TXT`
|
|
||||||
- Value: (a token certbot prints)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
After it propagates, press Enter and certbot will continue.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you run into a situation where the prompt/token only shows up in logs, you can try the hook-based mode:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
python3 -m python_video_server.letsencrypt certonly \
|
|
||||||
--challenge dns \
|
|
||||||
--dns-hooks \
|
|
||||||
--email [email protected] \
|
|
||||||
--domains example.com,www.example.com
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Certificates will be written under:
|
|
||||||
- `python_video_server/certs/config/live/<primary-domain>/fullchain.pem`
|
|
||||||
- `python_video_server/certs/config/live/<primary-domain>/privkey.pem`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### 2) Run the video server on 443 with TLS
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
sudo -E uvicorn python_video_server.server:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 443 \
|
|
||||||
--ssl-certfile python_video_server/certs/config/live/example.com/fullchain.pem \
|
|
||||||
--ssl-keyfile python_video_server/certs/config/live/example.com/privkey.pem
|
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Notes:
|
Notes:
|
||||||
- Binding to ports **80/443** usually requires `sudo` (or a reverse proxy / port forwarding).
|
- If you’re behind a proxy, forward `X-Forwarded-Proto: https` so `/api/video/session` can set `Secure` cookies correctly.
|
||||||
- If you’re behind a proxy/ingress, keep sending `X-Forwarded-Proto: https` so `/api/video/session` sets `Secure` cookies correctly.
|
- This repo includes `python_video_server/letsencrypt.py` as an optional helper for cert issuance/renewal (kept intentionally lightweight here).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### 3) Renew certificates
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
# Dry-run renewal (safe)
|
|
||||||
sudo -E python3 -m python_video_server.letsencrypt renew --dry-run
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Actual renew (typically run via cron/systemd timer)
|
|
||||||
sudo -E python3 -m python_video_server.letsencrypt renew --production
|
|
||||||
```
