Self-hosted IPTVnator

The self-hosted image contains both pieces required for the browser PWA:

Angular PWA static files served by nginx
The monorepo web-backend Express app proxied under /api

The historical standalone 4gray/iptvnator-backend image is no longer needed for the default Docker deployment.

Run With Docker Compose

docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml up --build -d

By default the app is available at http://localhost:4333.

Build The Image

docker build -t 4gray/iptvnator -f docker/Dockerfile .

The image build runs:

pnpm nx build web --configuration=pwa
pnpm nx build web-backend

Runtime Configuration

The container writes /usr/share/nginx/html/assets/app-config.js on startup. That file sets window.__IPTVNATOR_CONFIG__.BACKEND_URL, which the PWA reads before it creates PwaService.

Variable	Default	Purpose
`BACKEND_URL`	`/api`	Browser-facing backend URL used by the PWA. Keep `/api` for the bundled nginx proxy.
`CLIENT_URL`	`http://localhost:4333`	Allowed browser origin for backend CORS. Use the public URL when hosting behind a reverse proxy.
`PORT`	`3000`	Internal Express backend port. nginx proxy config is patched to match it at container startup.

The nginx config serves the PWA with SPA fallback, avoids caching assets/app-config.js, and proxies /api/* to the internal backend.

Local Validation

pnpm nx test web-backend
pnpm nx build web --configuration=pwa --skip-nx-cache
pnpm nx build web-backend
pnpm nx run web-e2e:e2e -- --project=chromium --grep @self-hosted
docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml config
