Wow. I wish I found this earlier. I have been trying to get XMPP and Nextcloud Talk to work for voice/video calls on my Yunohost for years.
opened 08:20PM - 12 May 20 UTC
I've enable audio video on my yunohost instance with the following changes.
I … believe these configuration are enough to make A/V work even on 3G/different wifi etc.
# Configure /etc/metronome/metronome.cfg.lua
## enable module
```
"extdisco"; -- XEP 215
"jingle_nodes";
```
## Add config:
```
external_services = {
["domain.tld"] = {
[1] = {
port = "3478",
transport = "udp",
type = "stun"
},
[2] = {
port = "3478",
transport = "tcp",
type = "stun"
},
[3] = {
port = "5349",
transport = "tcp",
type = "stuns"
},
[4] = {
port = "3478",
transport = "tcp",
type = "turn",
turn_secret = "Some passphrase",
turn_ttl = 300
},
[5] = {
port = "3478",
transport = "udp",
type = "turn",
turn_secret = "Some passphrase",
turn_ttl = 7200
},
[6] = {
port = "5349",
transport = "tcp",
type = "turns",
turn_secret = "Some passphrase",
turn_ttl = 7200
}
}
};
jingle_nodes_turn_credentials = true;
jingle_nodes_turn_secret = "Some passphrase";
jingle_nodes_turn_credentials_ttl = 86400;
jingle_nodes_restricted = false;
```

I'm open to make some changes, but I'm completely new on the project and will welcome some help.
last night, i installed the simplex server and it worked on my first try:
one device on wifi
one device on mobile network
one note, I think a better description of how to use Simplex server should be mentioned on the github page
option 1:
after installing, you need to find your fingerprint of your server:sudo cat /etc/opt/simplex/fingerprint
now make your server address:
smp://<fingerprint_from_previous_step>[:<password>]@<public_hostname>[,<onion_hostname>]
add it to your simplex app under Settings > Network & Servers > SMP Servers > + Add server
options 2:
anyways, thanks for packaging this app.
also, for people wanting this information, go here for now:

# Hosting your own SMP Server
## Overview
SMP server is the relay server used to pass messages in SimpleX network. SimpleX Chat apps have preset servers (for mobile apps these are smp8, smp9 and smp10.simplex.im), but you can easily change app configuration to use other servers.
SimpleX clients only determine which server is used to receive the messages, separately for each contact (or group connection with a group member), and these servers are only temporary, as the delivery address can change.
_Please note_: when you change the servers in the app configuration, it only affects which server will be used for the new contacts, the existing contacts will not automatically move to the new servers, but you can move them manually using ["Change receiving address"](../blog/20221108-simplex-chat-v4.2-security-audit-new-website.md#change-your-delivery-address-beta) button in contact/member information pages – it will be automated soon.
## Installation
0. First, install `smp-server`:
- Manual deployment:
- [Compiling from source](https://github.com/simplex-chat/simplexmq#using-your-distribution)
- [Using pre-compiled binaries](https://github.com/simplex-chat/simplexmq#install-binaries)

Will this ever be available for Arm like the RPi4

If someone with an RPI4 successfully builds the corresponding binary, yes.
Here are the build steps you can try: cf upstream readme
Install Haskell GHCup , GHC 8.10.7 and cabal:
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://get-ghcup.haskell.org | sh
ghcup install ghc 8.10.7
ghcup install cabal
ghcup set ghc 8.10.7
ghcup set cabal
Build the project:
git clone https://github.com/simplex-chat/simplexmq
cd simplexmq
git checkout stable # On Ubuntu. Depending on your distribution, use your package manager to determine package names.
apt-get update && apt-get install -y build-essential libgmp3-dev zlib1g-dev
cabal update
cabal install
PS. I have tested for armhf arch and it fails.

Hello,
I’ve tested to build on an arm64 board and it fails too (had to apt install llvm) :
error: /usr/bin/ld.gold: error: cannot find -lnuma
cabal: Failed to build basement-0.0.15 (which is required by exe:xftp-server

J’ai une question, en lisant la documentation officielle, je lis
You should store CA private key securely and delete it from the server.
If server TLS credential is compromised this key can be used to sign a new one, keeping the same server identity and established connections.
CA private key location: /etc/opt/simplex/ca.key
En gros, je pourrai sauvegarder la clé quelque part et la supprimer du serveur ?ca.key ?

So i can just install coturn and then use the domain where I installed it as the ICE server ?
edit : turn:user:password@turn.domain.com:5349
edit2:it does not show srflx and relay

I have been testing with coturn and simpleX.
Hello everyone. Is this app a bit outdated or am I wrong? I think the official version is around 5.2.1, although 5.4 is coming shortly.

5.3.0 is the last version. 5.4 is still in beta. Tags · simplex-chat/simplexmq · GitHub
I see. And will the ynh version be updated or are you waiting for the 5.4 version?

The application must be compiled from scratch; I prefer to iterate with big updates.
