Xiu is a simple and secure live media server written by pure Rust, it now supports popular live protocols like RTMP/HLS/HTTP-FLV (and maybe other protocols in the future), you can deploy it as a stand-alone server or a cluster using the relay feature.

• RTMP
  • publish and play
  • relay: static push
  • relay: static pull
• HTTPFLV
• HLS
• SRT

There are two ways to install xiu :

• Using cargo to install
• Building from source

Issue the following command to install xiu:

cargo install xiu

Start the service with the following command:

xiu configuration_file_path/config.toml

git clone https://github.com/harlanc/xiu.git

use master branch

cd ./xiu/application/xiu
cargo build --release

cd ./xiu/target/release
./xiu config.toml

[rtmp]
enabled = true
port = 1935

# pull streams from other server node.
[rtmp.pull]
enabled = false
address = "192.168.0.1"
port = 1935

# push streams to other server node.
[[rtmp.push]]
enabled = true
address = "localhost"
port = 1936
[[rtmp.push]]
enabled = true
address = "192.168.0.3"
port = 1935

[httpflv]
# true or false to enable or disable the feature
enabled = true
# listening port
port = 8081

[hls]
# true or false to enable or disable the feature
enabled = true
# listening port
port = 8080

[log]
level = "info"

I edit some configuration files under the following path which can be used directly:

xiu/application/xiu/src/config

It contains the following 4 files:

config_rtmp.toml //enable rtmp only
config_rtmp_hls.toml //enable rtmp and hls
config_rtmp_httpflv.toml //enable rtmp and httpflv
config_rtmp_httpflv_hls.toml //enable all the 3 protocols

You can use two ways:

• Use OBS to push a live rtmp stream

• Or use FFmpeg to push a rtmp stream:

    ffmpeg -re -stream_loop -1 -i test.mp4 -c:a copy -c:v copy -f flv -flvflags no_duration_filesize rtmp://127.0.0.1:1935/live/test
  

Use ffplay to play the rtmp/httpflv/hls live stream:

ffplay -i rtmp://localhost:1935/live/test
ffplay -i http://localhost:8081/live/test.flv
ffplay -i http://localhost:8080/live/test/test.m3u8

The configuration files are as follows:

The configuration file of Service 1 named config.toml:

[rtmp]
enabled = true
port = 1935
[[rtmp.push]]
enabled = true
address = "localhost"
port = 1936

The configuration file of Service 2 named config_push.toml:

[rtmp]
enabled = true
port = 1936

Run the 2 services:

./xiu config.toml
./xiu config_push.toml

Use the above methods to push rtmp live stream to service 1, then the stream can be pushed to service 2 automatically, you can play the same live stream from both the two services:

ffplay -i rtmp://localhost:1935/live/test
ffplay -i rtmp://localhost:1936/live/test

The configuration file are as follows:

The configuration file of Service 1 named config.toml:

[rtmp]
enabled = true
port = 1935

The configuration file of Service 2 named config_pull.toml:

[rtmp]
enabled = true
port = 1936
[rtmp.pull]
enabled = false
address = "localhost"
port = 1935

Run the 2 services:

./xiu config.toml
./xiu config_pull.toml

Use the above methods to push live stream to service 1, when you play the stream from serivce 2, it will pull the stream from service 1:

ffplay -i rtmp://localhost:1935/live/test
ffplay -i rtmp://localhost:1936/live/test
