kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 5.5 d3ca143343 docs(roles): regenerate READMEs for Stalwart as the mail provider
MAIL_PROVIDER moved to web-app-stalwart without a make docs run, so every generated README still drew Mailu as the email dependency. This is the generator output for the current tree: the root role table and each role cosmos now name Stalwart, Mailu loses its dependents, and Stalwart gains its swarm marker, the Tor dependencies and the 0..0 edges.

The hand-written cosmos of svc-net-tor-smtp gives way to the generated one, which no longer shows the SOCKS5 hop through svc-net-tor because the role does not declare that dependency.

PeerTube

Description

PeerTube is a decentralized, open-source video hosting platform that empowers creators to share videos without relying on centralized services. It leverages federated architecture and peer-to-peer technologies to provide scalable, secure, and community-driven video streaming.

Overview

This Docker Compose deployment sets up PeerTube with integrated support for essential services such as a PostgreSQL database, Redis cache, and an NGINX reverse proxy for secure HTTPS termination and domain routing. The configuration supports advanced security settings, modular service scaling, and automated environment injection.

Cosmos

The diagram places PeerTube in the Infinito.Nexus cosmos: the components it deploys (capabilities), the central services it consumes (dependencies), and its outward reach (federation and bridged external networks).

Solid 1:1 edges are fixed relationships; dashed 0..1 edges are conditional (enabled only in matching deployments); red 0..0 edges are turned off in this role. Node markers show the role's deploy modes (💻 host, 🐳 compose, 🐝 swarm); ❌ marks a service that is explicitly turned off, and ⚙️ an Ansible role dependency declared in meta/main.yml.

Features

  • Decentralized Video Hosting: Distribute video hosting across multiple instances to enhance resilience and avoid single-point control.

  • Scalability and Performance: Efficiently manage video transcoding, live streaming, and storage through containerized microservices.

  • Customizable Configuration: Tailor settings such as storage, email delivery, and administrative parameters using environment variables and configuration files.

  • Secure and Private: Built-in support for TLS, secure SMTP integration, and strict administrative controls to ensure data protection.

  • Federated Communication: Designed to operate within a federated network, enabling seamless sharing and interconnection with other PeerTube instances.

Quick Setup

Development

Clone, set up the workstation, and deploy PeerTube onto the local stack:

git clone https://github.com/infinito-nexus/core.git
cd core
make onboard
make compose-deploy mode=reinstall apps=web-app-peertube full_cycle=false

Production

Run the published image to provision the inventory and deploy PeerTube to a managed server (the mounted volume persists the inventory):

APP=web-app-peertube
HOST=<your-server>
DOMAIN=<your-domain>
TLS_MODE=self_signed
SSH_PUBLIC_KEY="<your-ssh-public-key>"

docker run --rm -it \
  -v "$PWD/inventories:/etc/infinito.nexus/inventories" \
  -e APP="$APP" -e HOST="$HOST" -e DOMAIN="$DOMAIN" -e TLS_MODE="$TLS_MODE" -e SSH_PUBLIC_KEY="$SSH_PUBLIC_KEY" \
  ghcr.io/infinito-nexus/core/debian bash -c '
    INVENTORY=/etc/infinito.nexus/inventories/production
    infinito administration inventory provision "$INVENTORY" \
      --inventory-file "$INVENTORY/devices.yml" \
      --host "$HOST" \
      --include "$APP" \
      --vars "{\"TLS_MODE\": \"$TLS_MODE\", \"DOMAIN_PRIMARY\": \"$DOMAIN\", \"users\": {\"administrator\": {\"authorized_keys\": [\"$SSH_PUBLIC_KEY\"]}}}" &&
    infinito administration deploy dedicated "$INVENTORY/devices.yml" \
      --password-file "$INVENTORY/.password" \
      --diff -vv'
