The favicon is bundled into the frontend image as static files served from
/usr/share/nginx/html. Rather than add a runtime config knob, document how to
overlay custom icons with a volume (ConfigMap + frontend.extraVolumes/
extraVolumeMounts). This serves the right icon from the first byte — no
rebuild, no favicon flash — and covers every variant, including the iOS
home-screen and Android/PWA icons.

Recording lifecycle previously relied exclusively on the MinIO storage-hook
endpoint to transition from STOPPED to SAVED, which made the system dependent
on MinIO bucket notifications and lifecycle configuration. Introduce support
for LiveKit egress_ended webhook (EGRESS_COMPLETE, EGRESS_LIMIT_REACHED) as
an alternative finalization mechanism for self-hosted deployments that do
not use MinIO / S3 hooks.
Change behavior of existing configuation RECORDING_STORAGE_EVENT_ENABLE.
When the LiveKit mechanism is enabled (RECORDING_STORAGE_EVENT_ENABLE=False),
RecordingEventsService.handle_complete is triggered from
LiveKitEventsService._handle_egress_ended.
We should be able to use other transcription services,
those usually relie on response_format="diarized_json"
to produce what we need.
Note that as part of this change, we stop using
openai library for making this call to avoid
casting the result to a payload that doesn't
contain the elements we used to rely on.
(setting this specific format auto cast the
results in openai lib). We keep the old
result class used.
Document the changes introduced in #128333, which allows passing
configuration to the external API when creating a room.
Warning: this documentation was generated in a rush using an LLM and
may contain minor errors.
Plan to factorize these YAML files into a common and shared
structure.
Expose RECORDING_ENCODING_* settings to override the default LiveKit
Egress preset (H264_720P_30). When RECORDING_ENCODING_ENABLED is True,
the provided width/height/framerate/bitrate/keyframe values are passed
as advanced EncodingOptions. Lowering framerate and bitrate reduces
recording file size and egress worker CPU load.
Disabled by default, preserving current behaviour.
Migrate main meet app to use UV for dependancy management.
Also optimized the backend image build sequence for faster rebuilds
when dependencies don't change.
Also removed compiled django translations files are they are done in the build
process now.
Changes inspired by drive repo.
Explicitly explain that transcription is reserved for public servants. Remove
the temporary beta form: the feature is now available to all public servants,
with restrictions based on domain. Make white-labeling rules explicit and
clarify who to contact for access.
The beta form created frustration, with users registering and never hearing
back from the team.
Improve guidance when a user may be the meeting host but is not logged in, and
therefore cannot activate recording. Add a clear hint and a quick action to log
in. This decision is based on frequent support requests where users could not
understand why recording was unavailable while they were simply not logged in.
Allow external platforms using the public API to create provisional users
with email-only identification when the user doesn't yet exist in our
system. This removes a key friction point blocking third-party integrations
from fully provisioning access on behalf of new users.
Provisional users are created with email as the primary identifier. Full
identity reconciliation (sub assignment) occurs on first login, ensuring
reliable user identification is eventually established.
While email-only user creation is not ideal from an identity perspective,
it provides a pragmatic path to unlock integrations and accelerate adoption
through external platforms that are increasingly driving our videoconference
tool's growth.
Create initial resource server integration documentation based on existing
service account documentation structure to help developers understand
authentication flow and implementation requirements for external services
consuming Meet's protected resources.
We will introduce in the next commits the compose set-up that also
require examples values/config files. Thus, re-organize the kube ones
to dedicated folder, to make the files organisation extensible.
Document the external API using a simple Swagger file that can be opened
in any Swagger editor.
The content was mostly generated with the help of an LLM and has been human-
reviewed. Corrections or enhancements to the documentation are welcome.
Currently, my professional email address is included as a contact. A support
email will be added later once available. The documentation will also be
expanded as additional endpoints are added.
Add detailed documentation on signaling server configuration
and associated environment variables to help administrators properly
configure WebRTC connection establishment.
Add documentation noting subtitle functionality is currently under
active development to set appropriate expectations for administrators
and prevent deployment assumptions about feature maturity.
Add comprehensive telephony documentation explaining system requirements
and component interactions to help administrators understand infrastructure
needs.
Add comprehensive recording documentation explaining system requirements
and component interactions to help administrators understand infrastructure
needs and troubleshoot recording functionality.
Expand authentication documentation to clarify supported authentication
mechanisms and their configuration nuances, helping administrators
understand different authentication flows and choose appropriate methods
for their deployment security requirements.
Add initial theming documentation covering both runtime customization and
build-time configuration methods to help self-hosters adapt the
application's visual identity to their organizational branding needs.
Improve installation instructions to prepare for comprehensive Docker
Compose documentation launch, clarifying setup steps and addressing
common deployment questions to reduce onboarding friction.
Delete deprecated internal release process documentation that no longer
applies to current deployment practices, eliminating confusion from
obsolete workflow references.
The LiveKit API URL is necessary to interact with the API. It uses https
protocol.
Eplicit wss protocol is necessary in Websocket constructor for some
older browsers.
This resolves critical compatibility issues with legacy browsers
(notably Firefox <124, Chrome <125, Edge <125) that lack support
for HTTPS URLs in the WebSocket() constructor. Without explicit WSS
URLs, WebSocket signaling connections may fail, crash, or be blocked
entirely in these environments.
The setting is optional and defaults to the current behavior when
not specified, ensuring zero breaking changes for existing deployments.
Send backend recording duration limit to frontend to display warning
messages when recordings approach or reach maximum allowed length.
This configuration needs to be synced with the egres. I chose to keep
this duration in ms to be consistent with other settings.
