  • Serves BBB on HTTP Port 8080. It is your responsibility to add a HTTPS reverse proxy

    2. Ensure docker works with $ docker run hello-world

  2. Clone this repository
    $ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/alangecker/bigbluebutton-docker.git bbb-docker
    $ cd bbb-docker
    
  3. Create .env with $ cp sample.env .env
  4. Adjust the values in .env (don't forget to change the ETHERPAD_API_KEY, SHARED_SECRET and RAILS_SECRET!)
  5. Start BigBlueButton $ docker-compose -d up

Note if you use a Firewall / NAT

Kurento binds somehow always to the external IP instead of the local one or 0.0.0.0. For that reason you need to add your external IP to your interface.

Temporary way (until next reboot)
$ ip addr add 144.76.97.34/32 dev ens3
Permanent way

Specific to your linux distribution. Use a search engine of your choice. ;)

Ports

Also don't forget to forward all necassary ports listed in http://docs.bigbluebutton.org/2.2/configure-firewall.html

Open Tasks

  • add optional https support via lets encrypt
  • add support for recording
  • further separate bbb-core into individual container
