Role jitsi

A role for deploying Jitsi Meet using the official docker-jitsi-meet release.

The given release is downloaded and unpacked unmodified to /opt/jitsi/releases/ and /opt/jitsi/release is pointed to it. The .env file at /opt/jitsi/.env is fully managed by this role; env.example and gen-passwords.sh of the release are not used. The .env also sets COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME and COMPOSE_FILE, so docker compose can be run by hand in /opt/jitsi. The Jitsi configuration directory (CONFIG) is /opt/jitsi/config, with persistent state in /opt/jitsi/config/storage/. The image version (JITSI_IMAGE_VERSION) always equals the release version, so upgrading means bumping jitsi__version. Releases other than the configured one are removed.

TLS certificates are obtained by the web container itself using Let's Encrypt, so ports 80/tcp and 443/tcp as well as 10000/udp (media) must be reachable.

Optionally, a coturn TURN server and the Prometheus Jitsi Meet exporter are deployed as additional services of the same Compose project, defined in /opt/jitsi/compose.override.yaml. coturn uses the certificate obtained by the web container and is restarted weekly to pick up renewals. It needs 3478/udp+tcp, 5349/tcp and the relay port range 49152-65535/udp to be reachable. The exporter scrapes the JVB statistics and listens on port 9888.

Files can be added to or replaced in the Jitsi Meet web root (/usr/share/jitsi-meet in the web container) using jitsi__web_files, e.g. for branding. They are deployed to /opt/jitsi/web-files/ and bind-mounted into the web container.
