tty-server

Server side for tty-share.

Docker

The server can be built into a docker image as follows:

docker build -t tty-server .

To run the container, type:

docker run \
  -p 6543:6543 -p 5000:5000 \
  -e URL=http://localhost:5000 \
  --cap-drop=all --rm \
  tty-server

where you can replace URL by whatever will be the publicly visible URL of the server.

After this, clients can be connected as follows:

tty-share -useTLS=false -server localhost:6543

In the above command, 6543 is the default port where tty-server listens for incoming shares (i.e. tty-share clients), and 5000 is the port of the web interface through which remote users can connect. You can override the defaults by specifying a different port mapping on the command line, e.g. -p 7654:6543 -p 80:5000 to listen on 7654 and serve on 80.
