EC2 setup

To run an icecast2 server on an EC2 instance install docker and run the server in a docker container on the instance:

• Launch an instance, e.g. t4g.micro with 2vCPU, 1GB RAM, 8GB disk (choose the arm64 architecture). ** In the security group allow ssh and port 8000 (TCP).
• Copy aws/setup.sh to the instance and run the script.
• Logout and reconnect.
• Copy aws/run.sh to the instance and start the icecast server with the image name as parameter.
• Use nohup ./run.sh numblr/icecast2:alpine-arm & to start the server in the background.
• To use a custom configuration copy into the config/ folder created by the setup script on the instance. Ensure the config file is readable for all users.

The aws/setup.sh script will create a log/ folder on the instance where the server logs will be stored.
