Based on this repo https://github.com/brocaar/nginx-rtmp-dockerfile.
This Dockerfile installs NGINX configured with nginx-rtmp-module, ffmpeg
and some default settings for HLS live streaming.
-
Build and run the container (
docker build -t nginx_rtmp .&docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -p 1935:1935 nginx_rtmp). -
Stream your live content to
rtmp://localhost:1935/hls/stream_namewherestream_nameis the name of your stream. E.g. broadcasting an avi file:
ffmpeg -loglevel verbose -re -i movie.avi -vcodec libx264 \
-vprofile baseline -acodec libmp3lame -ar 44100 -ac 1 \
-f flv rtmp://localhost:1935/hls/movie
- In Safari, VLC or any HLS compatible browser / player, open
http://localhost:8080/hls/stream_name.m3u8. Note that the first time, it might take a few (10-15) seconds before the stream works. This is because when you start streaming to the server, it needs to generate the first segments and the related playlists.
