# Install Mediasoup API on Ubuntu Bionic

This guide will provide the correct way to deploy mediasoup-api on public server.

### Install repository

~~~

echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://projects.iabsis.com/repository/mediasoup-api/debian bionic main" \

  > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/iabsis.list

cat > /etc/apt/auth.conf << EOF

machine projects.iabsis.com

login iabsis-apt

password <password>

EOF

chmod 600 /etc/apt/auth.conf

~~~

###  Install package

~~~

apt install mediasoup-api nginx

~~~

### Configure Mediasoup

    nano /etc/mediasoup-api/mediasoup-api.conf

~~~

## Define random key here

JWT_SECRET=<change secret>

## Configure credentials used to consume mediasoup API

API_USER=<define login>

API_SECRET=<define password>

## Define here the public IP server

PUBLIC_IP=<define local server IP>

## If server is behind nat, you might need to advertise 

# the real public IP by commenting out this line.

;ANNOUNCED_IP=1.2.3.4

## You will need to open UDP port in the follow range, you

# can adjust the range if required.

RTC_MIN_PORT=40000

RTC_MAX_PORT=49000

## If this server is behind a reverse proxy, you might need to trust it

TRUST_PROXY=127.0.0.1

## The best practice is to use reverse proxy, but if you want

# this API to serve directly HTTPS, you might need to configure the

# following lines

HTTP_ONLY=true

LISTEN=3480

;CERT=/etc/mediasoup-api/sample.localhost.cert.pem

;KEY=/etc/mediasoup-api/sample.localhost.key.pem

LISTEN_REDIRECT=3481

~~~

    nano /usr/share/mediasoup-api/config/config.js

### Enable mediasoup at boot

~~~

systemctl enable mediasoup-api

systemctl start mediasoup-api

~~~

### Configure Nginx

~~~

cat > /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/mediasoup-api.conf << EOF

map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {

    default upgrade;

    ''      close;

}

server {

    server_name <domain>;

    location / {

        proxy_set_header Host $host;

        proxy_pass https://localhost:3480;
