# Self-Hosting Stream API
<p class="page-description">Complete production self-hosting guide for Stream API: Docker, Node.js systemd, PM2, and Nginx reverse proxy configuration with SSE streaming support.</p>
<p class="page-description">Production self-hosting guide for Stream API using Docker, systemd, and Nginx with SSE streaming support.</p>
## Overview
Stream API is designed to be completely self-hostable on any Linux virtual private server (VPS), home server, or Docker container environment. Running your own instance gives you private access, eliminates shared IP rate limits, and allows you to tune worker concurrency to your hardware.
Stream API can be self-hosted on any Linux VPS, home server, or container environment. Self-hosting eliminates shared IP rate limits and allows custom worker tuning.

## Environment Variables
## Configuration
Configure your environment variables via a `.env` file in the project root:
Configure environment variables via a `.env` file in the project root:
| Variable | Required | Default | Description |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| `PORT` | Optional | `7860` | HTTP port on which the server binds. |
| `TMDB_API_KEY` | **Recommended** | `""` | The Movie Database v3 API key. Required for scrapers that resolve metadata via IMDb ID or episode titles. |
| `WORKER_COUNT` | Optional | `os.cpus().length` | Number of worker processes to fork in cluster mode. |
| `ENABLE_DEBUG_ROUTE` | Optional | `false` | Enables deep diagnostic traces at `/debug/:source`. Keep `false` in production. |
| `GA_MEASUREMENT_ID` | Optional | `""` | Google Analytics 4 Measurement ID for private usage telemetry. |
| `GA_API_SECRET` | Optional | `""` | Google Analytics 4 Measurement Protocol API Secret. |
| `FALLBACK_BASE` | Optional | `""` | Secondary Stream API instance URL used for failover redirects. |
| `IS_HF` | Optional | `false` | Enables HuggingFace Spaces compatibility constraints. |
- `PORT` *(number, optional)* — Bind port. Default: `7860`.
- `TMDB_API_KEY` *(string, recommended)* — TMDB v3 API key for metadata lookups.
- `WORKER_COUNT` *(number, optional)* — Number of cluster workers. Default: available CPU count.
- `ENABLE_DEBUG_ROUTE` *(boolean, optional)* — Enables `/debug/:source`. Keep `false` in production.
- `FALLBACK_BASE` *(string, optional)* — Secondary Stream API URL for failover redirects.
- `IS_HF` *(boolean, optional)* — Enables HuggingFace Spaces compatibility.

## Reverse Proxy: Nginx Configuration
## Reverse Proxy: Nginx
Because Stream API utilizes **Server-Sent Events (SSE)** and large **HLS video streams**, your reverse proxy must disable proxy buffering. Standard buffering will delay SSE events until the buffer fills, breaking progressive playback.
Disable proxy buffering so Server-Sent Events (SSE) stream progressively to clients.
Create an Nginx configuration at `/etc/nginx/sites-available/stream-api.conf`:
Create `/etc/nginx/sites-available/stream-api.conf`:
```nginx

## Verifying Your Deployment
## Health Check
Once deployed, verify the installation by testing the `/health` endpoint:
Verify the deployment:
```bash
curl -i https://stream-api.yourdomain.com/health
```
You should receive an HTTP 200 (or 207) with JSON detailing the cluster status, cache count, and source probe results.
