I personally set up miltiple sig helpers, one for each process. Sometimes it will crash and you need to make a crontab entry to restart inv_sig_helper and invidious. You will notice the processer usage and memory usage spike now and then. You can control that with service file cpu limits. -## redis-server +## redis-server notes You will need a default installation of redis-server ```apt install -y redis-server``` _You still need postgresql. If you've followed the installation instructions it should still be there. Do not uninstall it._ +## proxy patch notes + +There is proxy support in this version. You may use privoxy, or any proxy. If you have proton vpn you can use https://github.com/catspeed-cc/proton-privoxy. The walterl fork https://github.com/walterl/proton-privoxy does not have a line in the config increasing the max connections or an installer script so maybe use mine. + +Keep in mind especially on Proton Vpn if you restart a container, you will temporarily have 1 extra connection. So if you have 10 connections allowed, I would keep a few extra available in case a container needs restarting. I am not sure how long it takes for the stale connection to fix itself. + + ## po_token and visitor_data This branch has the token monitor patch from myself (mooleshacat) which will check every 1 minute your config file for updated tokens. Now all you have to do is make a bash script that updates the tokens in the config file and a cronjob to execute it at the desired interval. No longer do you have to restart invidious service for the tokens to update.
