Roku Remote Web App

Web app for Roku using Roku API

Getting Started

Prerequisites

One of the issues working with Roku API was that it does not accept cross origin requests. To overcome the issue, you can make the requests through a proxy that adds the header: "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" "*". I also allowed the webserver accessible only to the internal network 192.168.x.x

<VirtualHost *:443>

  <Location /roku>
    ProxyPass http://[YOUR_ROKU_IP_ADDRESS]:8060/
    ProxyPassReverse /
    Header add "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" "*"
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 192.168
  </Location>

  <Location />
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 192.168
  </Location>

  Alias /custom /var/www

<VirtualHost>

Installing

The files are static html, so you can host them on your webserver along with your roku proxy.
