How to use Docker to setup a development environment for BigBlueButton
|
|
|
|
## Environment
|
|
|
|
We're considering you are using a [Ubuntu 20.04 LTS](https://ubuntu.com/download/desktop) but other versions/distributions can work too.
|
|
|
|
An internet connection is required. It can be a shared network ( no need to forward ports in your router ).
|
|
|
|
## SSL certificate
|
|
|
|
Running a BigBlueButton server requires a SSL certificate. The install script will automatically generate an self-signed certificate or you can rather specify a folder which contains a previous generated certificate.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Docker setup
|
|
|
|
The next script depends on having docker available to your user, so before proceeding, run the following command (note that a computer reboot is required):
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo usermod -aG docker `whoami`
|
|
sudo reboot
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Container setup
|
|
|
|
1. Save (right click, save as) the creation script in home directory (`~`): [create_bbb.sh](create_bbb.sh?raw=1)
|
|
|
|
2. Add permissions to the script:
|
|
```sh
|
|
chmod +x create_bbb.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Run the script ( it will remove previously created dockers and create a new one):
|
|
Docker **bbb 2.6**
|
|
```
|
|
./create_bbb.sh --image=imdt/bigbluebutton:2.6.x-develop --update bbb26
|
|
```
|
|
Docker **bbb 2.5**
|
|
```
|
|
./create_bbb.sh --image=imdt/bigbluebutton:2.5.x-develop --update bbb25
|
|
```
|
|
Docker **bbb 2.4**
|
|
```
|
|
./create_bbb.sh --image=imdt/bigbluebutton:2.4.x-develop --update bbb24
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters:
|
|
`./create_bbb.sh [--update] [--fork=github_user] [--domain=domain_name] [--ip=ip_address] [--image=docker_image] [--cert=certificate_dir] [--custom-script=path/script.sh] {name}`
|
|
- {name}: Name of the container (e.g `bbb26`) **(REQUIRED)**
|
|
- --update: check for new image version `--update`
|
|
- --domain: set the host domain (e.g `--domain=test`), default: `test`. BBB URL will be `https://{NAME} + {DOMAIN}`
|
|
- --cert: specify the directory which contains a certificate (`fullchain.pem` and `privkey.pem`) (e.g `--cert=/tmp`) *(if absent a new certificate will be created)*
|
|
- --custom-script: path of a shell script file to be executed immediately when the container is created (useful for setting some personal preferences for configs)
|
|
- --ip: force container IP (e.g `--ip=172.17.0.2`)
|
|
- --fork: Username in Github with bbb Fork `--fork=bigbluebutton`
|
|
- --image: Force an image different than default `--image=imdt/bigbluebutton:2.6.x-develop`
|
|
## Using the container
|
|
|
|
### SSH session within the container
|
|
```
|
|
ssh bbb26
|
|
```
|
|
Replace **bbb26** with the {name} param of `create_bbb.sh`
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Use `/tmp` to exchange files
|
|
The directory `/tmp` is shared between the host and the container. So you can use this directory to exchange files between them.
|
|
|
|
### Start using BigBlueButton
|
|
|
|
That's all, open https://bbb26.test (or your custom `https://{name}.{domain}`) in your browser and enjoy.
|
|
|
|
PS: if you see certificate error in your browser, you need to add the CA certificate in it's trusted certificates. Instructions for Chrome and Firefox can be found [here](https://github.com/bigbluebutton/docker-dev/issues/1)
|
|
|
|
## Removing an existing container
|
|
```
|
|
./create_bbb.sh --remove {container_name}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or rather you can remove a BBB docker image using `docker image rm imdt/bigbluebutton:2.6.x-develop --force`
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
## BBB-Conf
|
|
Link to the API-Mate: `bbb-conf --salt`
|
|
|
|
Restart BBB: `sudo bbb-conf --restart`
|
|
|
|
Check configs: `sudo bbb-conf --check`
|
|
|
|

|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
In case of problems, you can update the packages by running:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo apt update
|
|
sudo apt dist-upgrade -y
|
|
```

# Instructions to run BigBlueButton from source (via command-line)
|
|
- **HTML5 - bigbluebutton-html5**: the Front-End (users meeting interface) [*Meteor*]
|
|
- **AKKA - akka-bbb-apps**: Backend that exchange msgs with Frontend through Redis pub/sub msgs (stores the meeting state and execute validations for Html5, *e.g: Can John send a message?*) [*Scala*]
|
|
- **API - bigbluebutton-web**: Receives requests e.g: Create room, Enter room (when someone asks to enter the room, enters the API and then is redirected to html5) [*Grails*]
|
|
- **-bbb-common-web**: Contains useful functions that are used by the API [*JAVA*]
|
|
- **bbb-common-message**: Contains all Redis messages! Akka and the API import this project to know the existing messages [*JAVA*]
|
|

## HTML5 client
|
|
|
|
#### Running HTML5
|
|
```
|
|
cd ~/src/bigbluebutton-html5/
|
|
./run-dev.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Running HTML5 with **Full RESET** (needed sometimes)
|
|
```
|
|
cd ~/src/bigbluebutton-html5/
|
|
./run-dev.sh --reset
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
## Common-Message (required for BBB-Web and Akka)
|
|
```
|
|
cd ~/src/bbb-common-message
|
|
./deploy.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
## BBB-Web (API)
|
|
|
|
#### Running Bigbluebutton-web
|
|
```
|
|
cd ~/src/bigbluebutton-web/
|
|
./run-dev.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**If `bbb-common-web` was changed run:**
|
|
```
|
|
cd ~/src/bbb-common-web
|
|
./deploy.sh
|
|
cd ~/src/bigbluebutton-web/
|
|
./build.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
## Akka-apps
|
|
|
|
#### Running Akka within **bbb-docker-dev**
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd ~/src/akka-bbb-apps/
|
|
./run-dev.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Running Akka on **IntelliJ IDEA**
|
|
- [Requires Common-Message](#common-message-required-for-bbb-web-and-akka)
|
|
- Open bbb-docker-dev SSH connection appending `-with-ports` to the command *(it will create tunnel for Redis port 6379)*
|
|
```bash
|
|
ssh {container_name}-with-ports
|
|
```
|
|
- Run Akka within Docker once, to set the configs
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd ~/src/akka-bbb-apps/
|
|
./run-dev.sh
|
|
```
|
|
- If everything is working, press `Ctrl + C` to stop
|
|
|
|
- Open IDEA, open the Sbt tab and run:
|
|
```
|
|
~reStart
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
## Redis
|
|
- To track the exchange of messages between applications
|
|
```
|
|
redis-cli psubscribe "*" | grep --line-buffered -v 'pmessage\|CheckRunningAndRecording\|MeetingInfoAnalyticsServiceMsg\|CheckAliveP\|GetUsersStatusToVoiceConfSysMsg\|SendCursorPosition\|DoLatencyTracerMsg'
|
|
```
