simple sync server for lobe-chat.
Currently (2024-04), LobeChat only supports client-to-client synchronization. This project can achieve cloud synchronization by using Puppeteer to continuously visit the LobeChat application on the server side.
Deployment requires some environment variables:
| Name | Required | Default | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| BROWSER_USER_DATA_DIR | Yes | ./data | |
| LOBECHAT_URL | No | https://chat.lobehub.com/ | https://chat.example.com/ |
| LOBECHAT_ACCESS_CODE | No | (None) | password |
| LOBECHAT_SERVER_NAME | No | Sync Server | Cloud Server |
| LOBECHAT_WEBRTC_CHANNEL_NAME | Yes | my_channel | |

Tip
By default, lobe-chat-sync-server refreshes the application page every 5 minutes to prevent potential WebRTC connection and synchronization exceptions.
The refresh interval can be customized by REFRESH_INTERVAL, setting it to 0 to disable page auto refresh.
Warning
lobe-chat-sync-server is only designed for synchronization of multiple devices by a single user, please pay attention to your own data privacy.
If necessary, a separate instance should be deployed for each user and isolated using a different path BROWSER_USER_DATA_DIR.
