Server to convert multicast/unicast streams into http based unicast.

There are two configuration files in JSON format.

sources.json lists stream sources:

{
	"/public-path": {
		"source": "udp://1.2.3.4:1234",
		"interface": "eth3",
		"set": 1
	},
	"/another-source": {
		"source": "http://1.2.3.4/source-path",
		"set": 2
	},
	...
}

/public-path is public path that will be server by the server.

source contains address of traffic source, either udp multicast or http unicast. For udp it must contain protocol, hostname, and port (udp://1.2.3.4:56). For http, it must be fully qualified URL (http://source.domain/path).

interface specifies network interface to listen for incoming udp traffic. Makes sense only for multicast sources.

set integer id of the access group source belongs to.

networks.json lists networks that can have access to streams:

{
	"192.168.0.0/24": [
		1,
		2
	],
	...
}

192.168.0.0/24 masked network ip.

[ 1, 2 ] array of integer ids of sets the network is allowed to access.

sources type string -- File with URL to source mappings.

networks type string -- File with networks to sets mappings.

listen type string -- Ip:port to listen for clients.

fake-stream type string -- Fake stream to return to non authorized clients.

enable-web-controls type boolean -- Whether to enable controls via special paths.

Example: Streamer -listen=":7979" -sources="sources.json" -networks="networks.json" -fake-stream="fake.ts" -enable-web-controls=true >> /var/log/streamer.log 2>&1

Special URLs can be enabled by -enable-web-controls=true command line argument. If enabled, two special URLs are available:

http://your-server.url/server-status -- Shows service uptime and number of connected clients.

http://your-server.url/reload-config -- Reloads config files.

Server can handle HUP OS signal to reload configs. Configs are parsed and if they are valid, they are applied.
