Configure the plugin

Open ~/.openveo/publish/publishConf.json

{
  "videoTmpDir" : "/tmp/videos", // Temporary directory to stock uploading videos (video is removed after the upload)
  "maxConcurrentPublish" : 3 // Maximum number of videos to upload simultaneously
}

Configure video platform credentials

Open ~/.openveo/publish/videoPlatformConf.json

{
  "vimeo" : { // Vimeo platform configuration
    "clientId" : "vimeo client id (available on vimeo application page https://developer.vimeo.com/apps)",
    "clientSecret" : "vimeo client secret (available on vimeo application page https://developer.vimeo.com/apps)",
    "accessToken" : "vimeo access token (available on vimeo application page https://developer.vimeo.com/apps)"
  },
  "youtube": {
    "uploadMethod": "uploadResumable", // (uploadResumable or uploadClassic; default: uploadResumable)
    "googleOAuth": {
       "clientId": "Youtube API client Id (available in your Google Developper Console )",
       "clientSecret":  "Youtube API client secret (available in your Google Developper Console )",
       "redirectUrl": "http://SERVER_HOST_NAME:SERVER_PORT/be/publish/configuration/googleOAuthAssosiation"
     },
     "privacy": "public" // (public, private or unlisted; default: public)
  },
  "wowza":{
    "protocol": "sftp", // (ftp, sftp, ftps)
    "host": "HOST", //server host where the video will be uploaded
    "port": "PORT", //server host port
    "user": "USERNAME", // server username
    "pwd": "PASSWORD", // server password
    "vodFilePath": "/files/", // path where the video will be uploaded
    "streamPath": "https://HOST/APP_NAME" // stream path exposed by wowza to access video, HOST and APP_NAME are defined in wowza
  },
  "local": {
    "vodFilePath": "/path/to/host/folder/",// path where the video will be uploaded on the local machine
    "streamPath": "stream/path/" //stream path exposed by local server relative to Openveo CDN to access the video
  },
  "tls": {
    "nfsPath": "/absolute/path/to/nfs/directory", // path of the directory shared with TLS
    "mediaDirectoryPath": "path/to/media/directory", // path of the directory holding medias (relative to nfsPath)
    "accessToken": "TLS access token", // access token to use to authenticate requests to TLS web service
    "url": "https://TLS_SERVER_HOST_NAME:TLS_SERVER_PORT/web/service/uri", // URL of the TLS web service
    "certificate": "/absolute/path/to/full/chain/certificate.crt" // path to the full chain certificate if top authority is not part of system well known authorities
  }
}

To upload videos on Youtube, publish requires googleOAuth credentials.
To upload videos on Wowza, you need to install lftp on your system.

Configure the watcher

Open ~/.openveo/publish/watcherConf.json

{
  "hotFolders" : [ // List of folders to watch
    {
      "type" : "vimeo", // Video platform to upload to for this hot folder (only local, vimeo, wowza or youtube is supported)
      "path" : "/user/box/hot2" // Path to the hot folder
    },
    {
      "type" : "youtube", // Video platform to upload to for this hot folder (only local, vimeo, wowza or youtube is supported)
      "path" : "/user/box/hot3" // Path to the hot folder
    },
    {
      "type" : "wowza", // Video platform to upload to for this hot folder (only local, vimeo, wowza or youtube is supported)
      "path" : "/user/box/hot4" // Path to the hot folder
    },
    {
      "type" : "local", // Video platform to upload to for this hot folder (only local, vimeo, wowza or youtube is supported)
      "path" : "/user/box/hot5" // Path to the hot folder
    },
    {
      // No video platform specified: let user choose on which platform the video will be uploaded
      "path" : "/user/box/hot1" // Path to the hot folder
    },
    ...
  ]
}

Nb : If type is missing for a hot folder, videos won't be automatically uploaded to a platform. Videos can be uploaded to a platform from the catalogue of videos in the back end.
