# Deployment Guide
|
||||
|
||||
Production deployment guide for OwnCord server on Windows.
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
- **Windows 10+** (x64)
|
||||
- **Go 1.22+** (only if building from source)
|
||||
- **LiveKit Server** binary (for voice/video) -- see [LiveKit Setup](livekit-setup.md)
|
||||
- Ports available: `8443` (default), `7880` (LiveKit), `80` (if using ACME/Let's Encrypt)
|
||||
|
||||
## Building from Source
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd Server
|
||||
go build -o chatserver.exe -ldflags "-s -w -X main.version=1.0.0" .
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `-s -w` strips debug info (smaller binary)
|
||||
- `-X main.version=...` embeds the version string
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, download a pre-built `chatserver.exe` from GitHub Releases.
|
||||
|
||||
## First Run Behavior
|
||||
|
||||
When `chatserver.exe` starts for the first time:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Config creation** -- `config.yaml` is written to the working directory with defaults
|
||||
2. **Data directory** -- `data/` is created (database, certs, uploads, backups)
|
||||
3. **TLS certificate** -- A self-signed certificate is generated at `data/cert.pem` / `data/key.pem`
|
||||
4. **Database migration** -- SQLite database is created and all migrations run
|
||||
5. **Status reset** -- All user statuses are set to `offline`, stale voice states are cleared
|
||||
6. **Admin setup page** -- Navigate to `https://localhost:8443/admin` to create the Owner account
|
||||
|
||||
The server listens on `https://0.0.0.0:8443` by default. See [Server Configuration](server-configuration.md) for all options.
|
||||
|
||||
## Running as a Windows Service
|
||||
|
||||
### Option 1: NSSM (Non-Sucking Service Manager)
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
# Install NSSM (via Chocolatey or download from nssm.cc)
|
||||
choco install nssm
|
||||
|
||||
# Create service
|
||||
nssm install OwnCord "C:\OwnCord\chatserver.exe"
|
||||
nssm set OwnCord AppDirectory "C:\OwnCord"
|
||||
nssm set OwnCord DisplayName "OwnCord Chat Server"
|
||||
nssm set OwnCord Start SERVICE_AUTO_START
|
||||
|
||||
# Manage
|
||||
nssm start OwnCord
|
||||
nssm stop OwnCord
|
||||
nssm restart OwnCord
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Option 2: Task Scheduler
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open Task Scheduler, create a new task
|
||||
2. Trigger: **At startup**
|
||||
3. Action: Start `chatserver.exe`
|
||||
4. Set "Start in" to the directory containing `config.yaml`
|
||||
5. Check "Run whether user is logged on or not"
|
||||
6. Check "Run with highest privileges"
|
||||
|
||||
## TLS Setup
|
||||
|
||||
### Self-Signed (default)
|
||||
|
||||
Auto-generated on first run. The Tauri client uses TOFU pinning to accept the cert on first connect.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
tls:
|
||||
mode: "self_signed"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Let's Encrypt (ACME)
|
||||
|
||||
Automatic certificate issuance and renewal. Requires port 80 open and a public domain.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
tls:
|
||||
mode: "acme"
|
||||
domain: "chat.example.com"
|
||||
acme_cache_dir: "data/acme_certs"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Manual Certificate
|
||||
|
||||
Use your own certificate files:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
tls:
|
||||
mode: "manual"
|
||||
cert_file: "path/to/cert.pem"
|
||||
key_file: "path/to/key.pem"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### TLS Off
|
||||
|
||||
Not recommended. For development or when behind a TLS-terminating reverse proxy:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
tls:
|
||||
mode: "off"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Backup Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
### SQLite WAL Considerations
|
||||
|
||||
The database uses SQLite WAL mode. Do NOT copy the `.db` file directly while the server is running -- use the backup endpoint instead.
|
||||
|
||||
### Admin Backup Endpoint
|
||||
|
||||
| Endpoint | Method | Description |
|
||||
|----------|--------|-------------|
|
||||
| `/admin/api/backups` | POST | Create a new backup |
|
||||
| `/admin/api/backups` | GET | List all backups (newest first) |
|
||||
| `/admin/api/backups/{name}` | DELETE | Delete a backup |
|
||||
| `/admin/api/backups/{name}/restore` | POST | Restore from backup (creates pre-restore safety backup first) |
|
||||
|
||||
Backups are stored in `data/backups/` with timestamps.
|
||||
|
||||
### Scheduled Backups
|
||||
|
||||
Use Windows Task Scheduler with PowerShell:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
$headers = @{ "Cookie" = "session=<admin-session-token>" }
|
||||
Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "https://localhost:8443/admin/api/backups" -Method POST -Headers $headers -SkipCertificateCheck
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Restore
|
||||
|
||||
Restoring replaces the live database file. A pre-restore safety backup is created automatically. A server restart is recommended after restore.
|
||||
|
||||
## Monitoring
|
||||
|
||||
### Health Endpoint
|
||||
|
||||
`GET /health` -- public, no authentication required.
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"status": "ok",
|
||||
"version": "1.0.0",
|
||||
"uptime": 86400,
|
||||
"online_users": 12
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Metrics Endpoint
|
||||
|
||||
`GET /api/v1/metrics` -- admin IP restricted.
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"uptime": "24h0m0s",
|
||||
"uptime_seconds": 86400,
|
||||
"goroutines": 42,
|
||||
"heap_alloc_mb": 15.3,
|
||||
"heap_sys_mb": 24.0,
|
||||
"num_gc": 150,
|
||||
"connected_users": 12,
|
||||
"voice_sessions": 3,
|
||||
"livekit_healthy": true
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### LiveKit Health
|
||||
|
||||
`GET /api/v1/livekit/health` -- checks LiveKit companion process reachability.
|
||||
|
||||
### Diagnostics
|
||||
|
||||
`GET /api/v1/diagnostics/connectivity` -- connectivity diagnostics for troubleshooting.
|
||||
|
||||
## Auto-Update
|
||||
|
||||
### Server
|
||||
|
||||
The server checks GitHub Releases for updates:
|
||||
- Compares semver versions
|
||||
- Results are cached for 1 hour
|
||||
- Downloads `chatserver.exe` with SHA256 checksum verification
|
||||
- On restart, the old binary is cleaned up
|
||||
|
||||
Set `github.token` in config for higher API rate limits (5000/hr vs 60/hr unauthenticated).
|
||||
|
||||
### Client
|
||||
|
||||
The Tauri client uses NSIS installer updates:
|
||||
- Server exposes client update assets from GitHub Releases
|
||||
- Ed25519 signature verification before applying
|
||||
|
||||
## Firewall and Ports
|
||||
|
||||
| Port | Protocol | Purpose |
|
||||
|------|----------|---------|
|
||||
| `8443` | TCP | HTTPS server (configurable via `server.port`) |
|
||||
| `80` | TCP | ACME HTTP-01 challenge (only if `tls.mode: acme`) |
|
||||
| `7880` | TCP | LiveKit server (WebSocket signaling) |
|
||||
| `7881` | TCP | LiveKit server (RTC/TURN over TCP) |
|
||||
| `50000-60000` | UDP | LiveKit WebRTC media (ICE candidates) |
|
||||
|
||||
For remote access, see the [Port Forwarding Guide](port-forwarding.md) or [Tailscale Guide](tailscale.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Hardening Checklist
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Change default admin password** -- create a strong Owner password during setup
|
||||
- [ ] **Set `admin_allowed_cidrs`** -- restrict admin access to specific IPs if needed
|
||||
- [ ] **Enable TLS** -- use `acme` or `manual` mode; avoid `off` in production
|
||||
- [ ] **Set `allowed_origins`** -- restrict WebSocket origins to your domain
|
||||
- [ ] **Set `trusted_proxies`** -- configure if behind a reverse proxy
|
||||
- [ ] **Set stable voice credentials** -- set `livekit_api_key` and `livekit_api_secret` to avoid token breakage on restart
|
||||
- [ ] **Set `voice.node_ip`** -- required for remote users behind NAT
|
||||
- [ ] **Review upload limits** -- adjust `upload.max_size_mb` for your use case
|
||||
- [ ] **Configure GitHub token** -- optional, for reliable update checks
|
||||
- [ ] **Schedule backups** -- use the admin backup endpoint on a cron schedule
|
||||
- [ ] **Monitor health** -- poll `/health` for uptime monitoring
|
||||
|
||||
## Background Maintenance
|
||||
|
||||
The server runs a maintenance loop every 15 minutes that:
|
||||
- Purges expired user sessions
|
||||
- Deletes orphaned file attachments (uploaded but never linked to a message, older than 1 hour)
|
||||
- Uses a circuit breaker (pauses after 5 consecutive failures)
|
||||
|
||||
## Graceful Shutdown
|
||||
|
||||
The server handles `Ctrl+C` (SIGINT) and `SIGTERM`:
|
||||
1. Stops accepting new connections
|
||||
2. Closes all WebSocket connections and voice rooms
|
||||
3. Drains HTTP connections with a 30-second timeout
|
||||
4. Stops the maintenance loop
|
||||
5. Closes the database
