Documentation

Documentation is available on docs.datarhei.com/restreamer. We give many pieces of information, from setting up a camera, embedding your player upon your website, and streaming to services like, e.g., YouTube-Live, and many more.

Development

Create a custom image (bundle):

Restreamer FFmpeg:

$ git clone github.com/datarhei/ffmpeg
$ cd ffmpeg
$ docker build -f Dockerfile.alpine -t myffmpeg .

Restreamer backend (Golang):

$ git clone github.com/datarhei/core
$ cd core
$ docker build -t mycore .

Restreamer interface (React):

$ git clone github.com/datarhei/restreamer-ui
$ cd restreamer-ui
$ docker build -t myrsui .

Restreamer bundle:

$ git clone github.com/datarhei/restreamer
$ cd restreamer
$ docker build --build-arg FFMPEG_IMAGE=myffmpeg --build-arg CORE_IMAGE=mycore --build-arg RESTREAMER_UI_IMAGE=myrsui -t myrestreamer .
$ docker run -it --rm -p 8080:8080 myrestreamer

To add/fix translations in the Restreamer interface:

The Restreamer interface is currently translated in different languages, such as German, French, Italian, Spanish, and more. If you find errors in the translations or have better suggestions for some sentences, you can become a translation contributor on poeditor.com. There you can also start a translation into a language that is not yet available in the Restreamer interface.
