# OpenVidu Local Deployment
Docker compose to run OpenVidu locally for development purposes
## Requirements
On **Windows** and **MacOS**:
- **Docker Desktop**
On **Linux**:
- **Docker**
- **Docker Compose**
## How to run
```sh
git clone https://github.com/OpenVidu/openvidu-local-deployment
docker compose up
```
When the deployment is ready you will see the following message in the logs:
```
readycheck | ------------------------
readycheck | OpenVidu is ready!
readycheck | Open https://openvidu-local.dev:4443/ in your browser
readycheck | ------------------------
```
## Additional Notes
### Using localhost
- This deployment is configured to use a domain name which points to `127.0.0.1` by default. If you want to use `localhost` instead, you can change the `LOCAL_DOMAIN` variable in the `.env` file.
### Enabling and Disabling TLS
- You can enable and disable TLS by setting `USE_TLS` to `true` or `false` in the `.env` file.
### LAN Access (Optional)
If you want to access the deployment in your LAN for Android or iOS devices, you need to do the following:
1. Get the private IP of your computer in your LAN.
2. Configure your Firewall to allow devices in your LAN to access your computer.
If your IP for example is `192.168.1.10`, the URL of your deployment in your LAN will be `https://192-168-1-10.openvidu-local.dev:4443/`.
### About `openvidu-local.dev`
This is a magic domain name like [nip.io](https://nip.io) or [traefik.me](https://traefik.me), which can resolve to any IP specified as a subdomain. It also offers a wildcard certificates which is automatically used by `caddy-proxy` in the local deployment to provide HTTPS for any subdomain.
This is useful for local development, as you can access your deployment using a domain name instead of an IP address, and you can use HTTPS without having to deal with self-signed certificates, **BUT it is not suitable for production environments.**
