How to fully selfhost stremio?

Hi! I need some help please, I can’t seem to be able to figure this out myself.


Stremio: The Next Generation Media Center

They have a docker container with the backend, and they also have the web frontend Dockerfile.

I am running already the backend with docker, but if you go to the ip:port it will redirect to Stremio’s own hosted frontend, that then uses your backend.

But I instead want to host both the frontend and backend, has someone already done this before? I couldn’t find much and the Dockerfile is not of much help.

Thank you!

Hey… I just set up a docker using the official stremio/server at docker hub. I am unable to stream. My streaming settings section originally showed all the options and now for some reason it’s only showing Server and Streaming Server URL. I am unable to toggle the override button.

Do you happen to have an idea on what’s going wrong? This is on my home network but using my tailscale url…

I didn’t even know you could selfhost Streamio.

Fair enough

SmallAlmond OP ,

I managed to selfhost the web interface, but I encountered an issue that I don’t think I can fix…

I used this docker run command (not compose yet, just testing)

docker run -it --rm --name stremio-web -p 8080:8080 node:alpine sh -c “”" apk add git git clone https://github.com/stremio/stremio-web --depth 1 cd stremio-web npm install npm run build npm install -g http-server http-server build/ -p 8080 -d false “”"

And I can reach the web ui. Now I can go into the settings page and set the backend url, which works perfectly. But when I go to the discover page nothing loads because it wants to reach stremio’s own servers.

Note: To access my selfhosted services I use a firefox profile that doesn’t have access to the internet, to be able to fully seflhost my stuff, that’s why the connection to their servers is blocked.

v3-cinemeta.strem.io GET

Is there a way to proxy these remote connections from the backend or am I just lost at this point?

@SmallAlmond I don't know much about streamio, but I noticed this on their webpage;

"There is also a Guest mode at signup, which requires no data whatsoever: in this mode, no calls are made to our backend. However, it comes at the expense of useful features, such as being able to sync your library across devices."

🤔

SmallAlmond OP ,

I mean… That’s what the webui I deployed has, the “guest mode login”, but it still makes those http requests to their servers :/
