Screensy autosetup

README.md

Setup guide

1. Create a new Primary IP in your Hetzner project, name it screenshare
2. Forward the new IP to some domain (optionally)
3. Add your SSH key to the project and name it main
4. Navigate to Security -> API tokens in your Hetzner console, and generate a new Read & write token
5. Install Hetzner CLI
6. Execute hcloud context create yourname and enter your token
7. Replace YOUR_DOMAIN in both files with your domain or IP

• To start the service, run screenshare.sh. Once cloud-init finished log is there, you're ready to go. Keep in mind that service creates SSL certificate after startup, which might take a moment. Total startup time is around 2-3 minutes.
• To stop the service, run stop.sh

Warning

This script creates a new CPX31 server on the current context's project. At the time of writing, that costs €0.026/hr.
