Jitsi modules reference

Variables and options

  • jitsi_fqdn: The domain where jitsi meet is listening.

  • jitsi_jibri_fqdn: The domain name of the jibri server (used for downloading recordings).

  • jitsi_local_recording_config: A JS snippet with the Jitsi Meet configuration for localRecording. The default is disable: true. See Recording conferences for more information.

  • jitsi_jicofo_password, jitsi_jicofo_secret: The Jicofo username is set as “focus”, and the password is set to the value of jitsi_jicofo_password. It’s not actually used anywhere (but has to be set). Likewise with the jitsi_jicofo_secret.

  • jitsi_jvb_user, jitsi_jvb_password, jitsi_jvb_secret: Username, password and secret for the videobridge. The user is registered in prosody, and subsequently the videobridges connect to prosody as this user. The user is also apparently used for SIP, but this is currently not supported by this role.

  • jitsi_jibri_password, jitsi_recorder_password: The passwords of the prosody jibri and recorder users, which are used by Jibri (see Recording conferences).

  • jitsi_ldap_*: See External authentication with LDAP.

  • jitsi_prosody_external_service_secret: The secret for external services (e.g. for TURN).

  • jitsi_prometheus_exporter_port: The port on which the prometheus exporter is listening; the default is 9102. See Getting statistics about Jitsi usage.

  • jitsi_excalidraw_backend_port: The port on which the excalidraw backend is listening; the default is 1080. See Whiteboard.

  • jitsi_excalidraw_backend_prometheus_port: The port on which excalidraw is providing data for prometheus; the default is 9091. See Whiteboard.

  • jitsi_welcome_background_image: The filename of the background image that will be used on the Jitsi Meet front page, on top. If unspecified, Jitsi’s default image will be used. If specified, a file with that name must exist in the files subdirectory of the playbook (or any directory where Ansible will search). The file must be a .png with a resolution of 1280x437.

  • jitsi_favicon: The filename of the favicon. If unspecified, Jitsi’s default favicon will be used. If specified, a file with that name must exist in the files subdirectory of the playbook (or any directory where Ansible will search). If specified, it should not have the value “favicon.svg”; this is Jitsi’s default value and in this case the playbook will consider that the default Jitsi favicon will be used.

  • jitsi_html_title: The HTML title for Jitsi Meet. If unspecified, Jitsi’s default HTML title will be used.

  • jitsi_welcome_header_title: A hash with the welcome header title in various languages; for example:

    jitsi_welcome_header_title:
  en: My own Jitsi installation
  el: Η δική μου εγκατάσταση Jitsi

    If unspecified, the default welcome header title is used. If specified, the welcome header is only modified in the specified languages, and the default welcome header title will be used in the unspecified languages.

  • jitsi_welcome_header_subtitle: Like jitsi_welcome_header_title, but for the subtitle.

  • jitsi_meet_meta_title, jitsi_meet_meta_description: The title and description used in OpenGraph and similar meta HTML attributes. Third-party services such as Matrix, Slack, X etc. may display these when a link to the Jitsi Meet server is posted. The defaults are “Jitsi Meet” for the title and “Join a WebRTC video conference powered by the Jitsi Videobridge” for the description (these are actually the stock defaults).
