Install Nginx with the RTMP module

To install Nginx with the RTMP module you can follow this guide.

A summary of the guide can be found under here.

Download dependencies:

sudo apt update

sudo apt install -y build-essential libpcre3 libpcre3-dev libssl-dev 

From your home directory, download the nginx source code and get the RTMP module source code from git:

wget http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.15.1.tar.gz
wget https://github.com/sergey-dryabzhinsky/nginx-rtmp-module/archive/dev.zip

Unpack/unzip them both, enter the nginx directory and build nginx with the RTMP module:

tar -zxvf nginx-1.15.1.tar.gz

unzip dev.zip

cd nginx-1.15.1

./configure --with-http_ssl_module --add-module=../nginx-rtmp-module-dev

make

sudo make install 

And nginx is installed! By default it installs to /usr/local/nginx, so to start the server run the following command:

sudo /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx 

To restart it, use:

sudo /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx -s stop

sudo /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx
