Create a `peertube` user with `/var/www/peertube` home:
```bash
-$ sudo useradd -m -d /var/www/peertube -s /bin/bash -p peertube peertube
+sudo useradd -m -d /var/www/peertube -s /bin/bash -p peertube peertube
```
Set its password:
```bash
-$ sudo passwd peertube
+sudo passwd peertube
```
Ensure the peertube root directory is traversable by nginx:
```bash
-$ ls -ld /var/www/peertube # Should be drwxr-xr-x
+ls -ld /var/www/peertube # Should be drwxr-xr-x
```
**On FreeBSD**
```bash
-$ sudo pw useradd -n peertube -d /var/www/peertube -s /usr/local/bin/bash -m
-$ sudo passwd peertube
+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.
Create the production database and a peertube user inside PostgreSQL:
```bash
-$ cd /var/www/peertube
-$ sudo -u postgres createuser -P peertube
+cd /var/www/peertube
+sudo -u postgres createuser -P peertube
```
Here you should enter a password for PostgreSQL `peertube` user, that should be copied in `production.yaml` file.
Don't just hit enter else it will be empty.
```bash
-$ sudo -u postgres createdb -O peertube -E UTF8 -T template0 peertube_prod
+sudo -u postgres createdb -O peertube -E UTF8 -T template0 peertube_prod
```
Then enable extensions PeerTube needs:
```bash
-$ sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE EXTENSION pg_trgm;" peertube_prod
-$ sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE EXTENSION unaccent;" peertube_prod
+sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE EXTENSION pg_trgm;" peertube_prod
+sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE EXTENSION unaccent;" peertube_prod
```
### :page_facing_up: Prepare PeerTube directory
Fetch the latest tagged version of Peertube:
```bash
-$ VERSION=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/chocobozzz/peertube/releases/latest | grep tag_name | cut -d '"' -f 4) && echo "Latest Peertube version is $VERSION"
+VERSION=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/chocobozzz/peertube/releases/latest | grep tag_name | cut -d '"' -f 4) && echo "Latest Peertube version is $VERSION"
```
Open the peertube directory, create a few required directories:
```bash
-$ cd /var/www/peertube
-$ sudo -u peertube mkdir config storage versions
-$ sudo -u peertube chmod 750 config/
+cd /var/www/peertube
+sudo -u peertube mkdir config storage versions
+sudo -u peertube chmod 750 config/
```
Download the latest version of the Peertube client, unzip it and remove the zip:
```bash
-$ cd /var/www/peertube/versions
-$ # Releases are also available on https://builds.joinpeertube.org/release
-$ sudo -u peertube wget -q "https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/releases/download/${VERSION}/peertube-${VERSION}.zip"
-$ sudo -u peertube unzip -q peertube-${VERSION}.zip && sudo -u peertube rm peertube-${VERSION}.zip
+cd /var/www/peertube/versions
+# Releases are also available on https://builds.joinpeertube.org/release
+sudo -u peertube wget -q "https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/releases/download/${VERSION}/peertube-${VERSION}.zip"
+sudo -u peertube unzip -q peertube-${VERSION}.zip && sudo -u peertube rm peertube-${VERSION}.zip
```
Install Peertube:
```bash
-$ cd /var/www/peertube
-$ sudo -u peertube ln -s versions/peertube-${VERSION} ./peertube-latest
-$ cd ./peertube-latest && sudo -H -u peertube yarn install --production --pure-lockfile
+cd /var/www/peertube
+sudo -u peertube ln -s versions/peertube-${VERSION} ./peertube-latest
+cd ./peertube-latest && sudo -H -u peertube yarn install --production --pure-lockfile
```
### :wrench: PeerTube configuration
You **must not** update this file.
```bash
-$ cd /var/www/peertube
-$ sudo -u peertube cp peertube-latest/config/default.yaml config/default.yaml
+cd /var/www/peertube
+sudo -u peertube cp peertube-latest/config/default.yaml config/default.yaml
```
Now copy the production example configuration:
```bash
-$ cd /var/www/peertube
-$ sudo -u peertube cp peertube-latest/config/production.yaml.example config/production.yaml
+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 and database configuration. In particular:
Copy the nginx configuration template:
```bash
-$ sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/nginx/peertube /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube
+sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/nginx/peertube /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube
```
Then set the domain for the webserver configuration file.
Replace `[peertube-domain]` with the domain for the peertube server.
```bash
-$ sudo sed -i 's/${WEBSERVER_HOST}/[peertube-domain]/g' /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube
-$ sudo sed -i 's/${PEERTUBE_HOST}/127.0.0.1:9000/g' /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube
+sudo sed -i 's/${WEBSERVER_HOST}/[peertube-domain]/g' /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube
+sudo sed -i 's/${PEERTUBE_HOST}/127.0.0.1:9000/g' /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube
```
Then modify the webserver configuration file. Please pay attention to the `alias` keys of the static locations.
It should correspond to the paths of your storage directories (set in the configuration file inside the `storage` key).
```bash
-$ sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube
+sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube
```
Activate the configuration file:
```bash
-$ sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/peertube /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/peertube
+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/):
```bash
-$ sudo systemctl stop nginx
-$ sudo certbot certonly --standalone --post-hook "systemctl restart nginx"
-$ sudo systemctl reload nginx
+sudo systemctl stop nginx
+sudo certbot certonly --standalone --post-hook "systemctl restart nginx"
+sudo systemctl reload nginx
```
Certbot should have installed a cron to automatically renew your certificate.
Since our nginx template supports webroot renewal, we suggest you to update the renewal config file to use the `webroot` authenticator:
```bash
-$ # Replace authenticator = standalone by authenticator = webroot
-$ # Add webroot_path = /var/www/certbot
-$ sudo vim /etc/letsencrypt/renewal/your-domain.com.conf
+# Replace authenticator = standalone by authenticator = webroot
+# Add webroot_path = /var/www/certbot
+sudo vim /etc/letsencrypt/renewal/your-domain.com.conf
```
If you plan to have many concurrent viewers on your PeerTube instance, consider increasing `worker_connections` value: https://nginx.org/en/docs/ngx_core_module.html#worker_connections.
On FreeBSD you can use [Dehydrated](https://dehydrated.io/) `security/dehydrated` for [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/)
```bash
-$ sudo pkg install dehydrated
+sudo pkg install dehydrated
```

### :alembic: Linux TCP/IP Tuning
```bash
-$ sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/sysctl.d/30-peertube-tcp.conf /etc/sysctl.d/
-$ sudo sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.d/30-peertube-tcp.conf
+sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/sysctl.d/30-peertube-tcp.conf /etc/sysctl.d/
+sudo sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.d/30-peertube-tcp.conf
```
Your distro may enable this by default, but at least Debian 9 does not, and the default FIFO
If your OS uses systemd, copy the configuration template:
```bash
-$ sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/systemd/peertube.service /etc/systemd/system/
+sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/systemd/peertube.service /etc/systemd/system/
```
Check the service file (PeerTube paths and security directives):
```bash
-$ sudo vim /etc/systemd/system/peertube.service
+sudo vim /etc/systemd/system/peertube.service
```
Tell systemd to reload its config:
```bash
-$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
+sudo systemctl daemon-reload
```
If you want to start PeerTube on boot:
```bash
-$ sudo systemctl enable peertube
+sudo systemctl enable peertube
```
Run:
```bash
-$ sudo systemctl start peertube
-$ sudo journalctl -feu peertube
+sudo systemctl start peertube
+sudo journalctl -feu peertube
```

On FreeBSD, copy the startup script and update rc.conf:
```bash
-$ sudo install -m 0555 /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/freebsd/peertube /usr/local/etc/rc.d/
-$ sudo sysrc peertube_enable="YES"
+sudo install -m 0555 /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/freebsd/peertube /usr/local/etc/rc.d/
+sudo sysrc peertube_enable="YES"
```
Run:
```bash
-$ sudo service peertube start
+sudo service peertube start
```

If your OS uses OpenRC, copy the service script:
```bash
-$ sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/init.d/peertube /etc/init.d/
+sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/init.d/peertube /etc/init.d/
```
If you want to start PeerTube on boot:
```bash
-$ sudo rc-update add peertube default
+sudo rc-update add peertube default
```
Run and print last logs:
```bash
-$ sudo /etc/init.d/peertube start
-$ tail -f /var/log/peertube/peertube.log
+sudo /etc/init.d/peertube start
+tail -f /var/log/peertube/peertube.log
```

logs (path defined in `production.yaml`). You can also set another password with:
```bash
-$ cd /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest && NODE_CONFIG_DIR=/var/www/peertube/config NODE_ENV=production npm run reset-password -- -u root
+cd /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest && NODE_CONFIG_DIR=/var/www/peertube/config NODE_ENV=production npm run reset-password -- -u root
```
Alternatively you can set the environment variable `PT_INITIAL_ROOT_PASSWORD`,
Run the upgrade script (the password it asks is PeerTube's database user password):
```bash
-$ cd /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/scripts && sudo -H -u peertube ./upgrade.sh
-$ sudo systemctl restart peertube # Or use your OS command to restart PeerTube if you don't use systemd
+cd /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/scripts && sudo -H -u peertube ./upgrade.sh
+sudo systemctl restart peertube # Or use your OS command to restart PeerTube if you don't use systemd
