Selfhosting tutorial

Note: We do not provide support on how to selfhost, if you cant figure it out then tough luck. Please do not make Github issues or ask in our Discord server for support on how to selfhost.

So you wanna selfhost. This app is made of two parts:

  • The proxy
  • The client

Hosting the proxy

The proxy is made as a cloudflare worker, cloudflare has a generous free plan, so you don't need to pay anything unless you get hundreds of users.

  1. Create a cloudflare account at https://dash.cloudflare.com
  2. Navigate to Workers.
  3. If it asks you, choose a subdomain
  4. If it asks for a workers plan, press "Continue with free"
  5. Create a new service with a name of your choice. Must be type HTTP handler
  6. On the service page, Click Quick edit
  7. Download the worker.js file from the latest release of the proxy: https://github.com/movie-web/simple-proxy/releases/latest
  8. Open the downloaded worker.js file in notepad, VScode or similar.
  9. Copy the text contents of the worker.js file.
  10. Paste the text contents into the edit screen of the cloudflare service worker.
  11. Click Save and deploy and confirm.

Your proxy is now hosted on cloudflare. Note the url of your worker. you will need it later.

Hosting the client

  1. Download the file movie-web.zip from the latest release: https://github.com/movie-web/movie-web/releases/latest

  2. Extract the zip file so you can edit the files.

  3. Open config.js in notepad, VScode or similar.

  4. Put your cloudflare proxy URL inbetween the double qoutes of VITE_CORS_PROXY_URL: "". Make sure to not have a slash at the end of your URL.

    Example (THIS IS MINE, IT WONT WORK FOR YOU): VITE_CORS_PROXY_URL: "https://test-proxy.test.workers.dev"

  5. Put your TMDB read access token inside the quotes of VITE_TMDB_READ_API_KEY: "". You can generate it for free at https://www.themoviedb.org/settings/api.

  6. Save the file

Your client has been prepared, you can now host it on any webhost. It doesn't require php, its just a standard static page.
