OVC minimal backend

The minimal backend for the ovc-videotest that can generate Jitsi JWT tokens

Tech:

• java 17+
• spring-boot
• maven

Running the application

Java 17 is expected

• In the base source direcctory that will be called ${project.basedir}
• Build ./mvnw clean package. This will produce target/ovc-minimal-backend-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
• Run with java -jar target/ovc-minimal-backend-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

OR Maven

• Run in the ${project.basedir} the Maven command ./mvnw spring-boot:run. This will build and run automatically.

Configuration

${project.basedir}/src/main/resources/application.properties contains the default values.

The app can be configured by placing a custom application.properties into ${project.basedir}/config/.

Refer to https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/2.1.9.RELEASE/reference/html/boot-features-external-config.html for the spring boot priorities when loading external config files.

Important properties

server.port=8080

jwt.secret=SECRET_SECRET_SECRET_SECRET_SECRET
jwt.issuer=ovc
jwt.audience=ovc
jwt.subject=*
jwt.expirationMinutes=60
jwt.defaultUserName=User

room.prefix=videotest

Configurations can be set from environment variables, example docker-compose

version: "3.7"
services:
  backend:
    build: .
    environment:
      - jwt.secret=${JWT_APP_SECRET}
      - jwt.videotest.secret=${JWT_VIDEOTEST_SECRET}
    ports:
      - "8080:8080"

Environment variables will have priority over config files.

Build

Refer to the README.md

Docker

After funning will start a tomcat server on port 8080
