## Installation
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Please don't install PeerTube for production on a small device behind a low bandwidth connection (example: a Raspberry PI behind your ADSL link) because it could slow down the fediverse. See the [FAQ](https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/blob/develop/FAQ.md#should-i-have-a-big-server-to-run-peertube) for more information.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Dependencies
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
**Follow the steps of the [dependencies guide](dependencies.md).**
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### PeerTube user
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Create a `peertube` user with `/var/www/peertube` home:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo useradd -m -d /var/www/peertube -s /bin/bash -p peertube peertube
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Set its password:
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo passwd peertube
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
**On FreeBSD**
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo pw useradd -n peertube -d /var/www/peertube -s /usr/local/bin/bash -m
 | 
						|
$ sudo passwd peertube
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
or use `adduser` to create it interactively.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Database
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Create the production database and a peertube user inside PostgreSQL:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo -u postgres createuser -P peertube
 | 
						|
$ sudo -u postgres createdb -O peertube peertube_prod
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Prepare PeerTube directory
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Fetch the latest tagged version of Peertube
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ VERSION=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/chocobozzz/peertube/releases/latest | grep tag_name | cut -d '"' -f 4) && echo "Latest Peertube version is $VERSION"
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Open the peertube directory, create a few required directories
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ cd /var/www/peertube && sudo -u peertube mkdir config storage versions && cd versions
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Download the latest version of the Peertube client, unzip it and remove the zip
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo -u peertube wget -q "https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/releases/download/${VERSION}/peertube-${VERSION}.zip"
 | 
						|
$ sudo -u peertube unzip peertube-${VERSION}.zip && sudo -u peertube rm peertube-${VERSION}.zip
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Install Peertube. If you're using CentOS7, do not forget to activate the devtoolset-6 software collection:
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ scl enable devtool-6 bash
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
And after that, follow the step as usual. Do not forget to exit the environment after installing Peertube.
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ cd ../ && sudo -u peertube ln -s versions/peertube-${VERSION} ./peertube-latest
 | 
						|
$ cd ./peertube-latest && sudo -H -u peertube yarn install --production --pure-lockfile
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### PeerTube configuration
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Copy example configuration:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ cd /var/www/peertube && sudo -u peertube cp peertube-latest/config/production.yaml.example config/production.yaml
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Then edit the `config/production.yaml` file according to your webserver
 | 
						|
configuration.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
**PeerTube does not support webserver host change**. Keep in mind your domain name is definitive after your first PeerTube start.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Webserver
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
We only provide official configuration files for Nginx.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Copy the nginx configuration template:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/nginx/peertube /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Then modify the webserver configuration file. Please pay attention to the `alias` keys of the static locations.
 | 
						|
It should correspond to the paths of your storage directories (set in the configuration file inside the `storage` key).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Activate the configuration file:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/peertube
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To generate the certificate for your domain as required to make https work you can use [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/):
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo systemctl stop nginx
 | 
						|
$ sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube # Comment ssl_certificate and ssl_certificate_key lines
 | 
						|
$ sudo certbot --authenticator standalone --installer nginx --post-hook "systemctl start nginx"
 | 
						|
$ sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube # Uncomment ssl_certificate and ssl_certificate_key lines
 | 
						|
$ sudo systemctl reload nginx
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Remember your certificate will expire in 90 days, and thus needs renewal.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Now you have the certificates you can reload nginx:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo systemctl reload nginx
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
**FreeBSD**
 | 
						|
On FreeBSD you can use [Dehydrated](https://dehydrated.io/) `security/dehydrated` for [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo pkg install dehydrated
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### systemd
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If your OS uses systemd, copy the configuration template:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/systemd/peertube.service /etc/systemd/system/
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Update the service file:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo vim /etc/systemd/system/peertube.service
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Tell systemd to reload its config:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you want to start PeerTube on boot:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo systemctl enable peertube
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Run:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo systemctl start peertube
 | 
						|
$ sudo journalctl -feu peertube
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### FreeBSD
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you're using FreeBSD, copy the startup script and update rc.conf:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/freebsd/peertube /usr/local/etc/rc.d/
 | 
						|
$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/peertube
 | 
						|
$ sudo echo peertube_enable="YES" >> /etc/rc.conf
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Run:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo service peertube start
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Administrator
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The administrator password is automatically generated and can be found in the
 | 
						|
logs. You can set another password with:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ cd /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest && NODE_CONFIG_DIR=/var/www/peertube/config NODE_ENV=production npm run reset-password -- -u root
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### What now?
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Now your instance is up you can:
 | 
						|
 
 | 
						|
 * Subscribe to the mailing list for PeerTube administrators: https://framalistes.org/sympa/subscribe/peertube-admin
 | 
						|
 * Add you instance to the public PeerTube instances index if you want to: https://instances.peertu.be/
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Upgrade
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### Auto (minor versions only)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The password it asks is PeerTube's database user password.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ cd /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/scripts && sudo -u peertube ./upgrade.sh
 | 
						|
$ sudo systemctl restart peertube && sudo journalctl -fu peertube
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### Manually
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Make a SQL backup
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ SQL_BACKUP_PATH="backup/sql-peertube_prod-$(date -Im).bak" && \
 | 
						|
    cd /var/www/peertube && sudo -u peertube mkdir -p backup && \
 | 
						|
    sudo pg_dump -U peertube -W -h localhost -F c peertube_prod -f "$SQL_BACKUP_PATH"
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Fetch the latest tagged version of Peertube:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ VERSION=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/chocobozzz/peertube/releases/latest | grep tag_name | cut -d '"' -f 4) && echo "Latest Peertube version is $VERSION"
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Download the new version and unzip it:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ cd /var/www/peertube/versions && \
 | 
						|
    sudo -u peertube wget -q "https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/releases/download/${VERSION}/peertube-${VERSION}.zip" && \
 | 
						|
    sudo -u peertube unzip -o peertube-${VERSION}.zip && \
 | 
						|
    sudo -u peertube rm peertube-${VERSION}.zip
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Install node dependencies:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ cd /var/www/peertube/versions/peertube-${VERSION} && \
 | 
						|
    sudo -u peertube yarn install --production --pure-lockfile
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Copy new configuration defaults values and update your configuration file:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo -u peertube cp /var/www/peertube/versions/peertube-${VERSION}/config/default.yaml /var/www/peertube/config/default.yaml
 | 
						|
$ diff /var/www/peertube/versions/peertube-${VERSION}/config/production.yaml.example /var/www/peertube/config/production.yaml
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Change the link to point to the latest version:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ cd /var/www/peertube && \
 | 
						|
    sudo unlink ./peertube-latest && \
 | 
						|
    sudo -u peertube ln -s versions/peertube-${VERSION} ./peertube-latest
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Restart PeerTube:
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ sudo systemctl restart peertube
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Things went wrong?
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Change `peertube-latest` destination to the previous version and restore your SQL backup:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ OLD_VERSION="v0.42.42" && SQL_BACKUP_PATH="backup/sql-peertube_prod-2018-01-19T10:18+01:00.bak" && \
 | 
						|
    cd /var/www/peertube && unlink ./peertube-latest && \
 | 
						|
    sudo -u peertube ln -s "versions/peertube-$OLD_VERSION" peertube-latest && \
 | 
						|
    pg_restore -U peertube -W -h localhost -c -d peertube_prod "$SQL_BACKUP_PATH"
 | 
						|
    sudo systemctl restart peertube
 | 
						|
```
