arcsecond proxy

arcsecond proxy [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Start and inspect the proxy that serves your cameras.

Subcommands

• arcsecond proxy start — Serve every registered camera — webcams, network cameras and all-sky cameras alike — over one proxy.
• arcsecond proxy status — Say whether the proxy is running, and what it is serving.
• arcsecond proxy stop — Stop the running proxy.

arcsecond proxy start

arcsecond proxy start [OPTIONS]

Serve every registered camera — webcams, network cameras and all-sky cameras alike — over one proxy.

Starts in the background and gives you your prompt back; stop it with arcsecond proxy stop from anywhere. Use --foreground to run it in this terminal and watch it instead.

Registers nothing: run arcsecond webcam add or arcsecond allsky add first. Cameras added while it runs are picked up without a restart.

Set LIVE_IMAGE_PROXY_URL=http://host.docker.internal:<PORT> in your .env so Arcsecond.local can reach the proxy.

Options

Option	Description
--port INTEGER	TCP port to listen on. [default: 8765]
--host TEXT	Interface to bind. [default: 0.0.0.0]
`--log-level [debug	info
--foreground	Run in this terminal and keep it, printing as it goes, instead of starting in the background. Ctrl-C stops it.
--no-autostart	Do not register the proxy to start again when you log in. By default a background proxy comes back after a reboot until arcsecond proxy stop is run.

arcsecond proxy status

arcsecond proxy status [OPTIONS]

Say whether the proxy is running, and what it is serving.

arcsecond proxy stop

arcsecond proxy stop [OPTIONS]

Stop the running proxy.

The mirror of start, and it works from any terminal — the proxy records where it is when it starts, so there is nothing to remember and no port to type. Registered cameras are untouched: this stops serving them, forget is what drops one.

Options

Option	Description
--timeout FLOAT	Seconds to wait for it to shut down before insisting. [default: 10.0]
