docker-secure-nginx-rtmp

This project is inspired by https://github.com/alfg/docker-nginx-rtmp but adding security features for pushing described by https://smartshitter.com/musings/2017/12/nginx-rtmp-streaming-with-simple-authentication/

Following Features are added to the original project alfg/docker-nginx-rtmp:

  • ENV AUTH_KEY: used in the OBS stream rtmp://IP-ADDRESS/stream/NAME?psk=AUTH_KEY
  • ENV DOMAIN_NAME: if specified and no SSL cert exists, automatically initiate signing at letsencrypt
  • ENV CERT_PRIVATE_KEY: Private cert name (in /opt/certs) or full path name
  • ENV CERT_PUBLIC: Public cert name (in /opt/certs) or full path name

Selectable encoding features (default set to TRUE):

  • ENV ENABLE_720P_2628KBS "TRUE"
  • ENV ENABLE_480P_1128KBS "TRUE"
  • ENV ENABLE_360P_878KBS "TRUE"
  • ENV ENABLE_240P_528KBS "TRUE"
  • ENV ENABLE_240P_264KBS "TRUE"

A Dockerfile installing NGINX, nginx-rtmp-module and FFmpeg from source with default settings for HLS live streaming. Built on Alpine Linux.

  • Nginx 1.18.0 (Stable version compiled from source)
  • nginx-rtmp-module 1.2.1 (compiled from source)
  • ffmpeg 4.3.1 (compiled from source)

Usage

Server

  • Pull docker image and run:
docker pull ioexpert/secure-nginx-rtmp
docker run -it -p 1935:1935 -p 8080:80 --rm ioexpert/secure-nginx-rtmp

or

  • Build and run container from source:
docker build -t nginx-secure-rtmp .
docker run -it -p 1935:1935 -p 8080:80 --rm ioexpert/secure-nginx-rtmp
  • Stream live content to:
rtmp://<server ip>:1935/stream/$STREAM_NAME

SSL

To enable SSL, specify DOMAIN_NAME and the domain will be automatically registered with a SSL certificate by Let's Encrypt.

Environment Variables

This Docker image uses envsubst for environment variable substitution. You can define additional environment variables in nginx.conf as ${var} and pass them in your docker-compose file or docker command.

Custom nginx.conf

If you wish to use your own nginx.conf, mount it as a volume in your docker-compose or docker command as nginx.conf.template:

volumes:
  - ./nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf.template

OBS Configuration

  • Stream Type: Custom Streaming Server
  • URL: rtmp://localhost:1935/stream
  • Stream Key: hello?psk=mysecret
  • Docker Container Env AUTH_KEY=mysecret

Watch Stream

  • In Safari, VLC or any HLS player, open:
http://<server ip>:8080/live/$STREAM_NAME.m3u8
  • Example Playlist: http://localhost:8080/live/hello.m3u8
  • VideoJS Player
  • FFplay: ffplay -fflags nobuffer rtmp://localhost:1935/stream/hello
