# asciinema web app | ||
|
||
asciinema is a free and open source solution for recording terminal sessions | ||
and sharing them on the web. | ||
|
||
This repository contains the source code of asciinema hosting web app, which | ||
runs at [asciinema.org](https://asciinema.org). | ||
|
||
You can find the source code of asciinema terminal recorder | ||
at [asciinema/asciinema](https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema), and the source | ||
code of asciinema web player | ||
at [asciinema/asciinema-player](https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-player). | ||

|
||
## Setting up your own asciinema web app instance | ||
|
||
asciinema terminal recorder uses [asciinema.org](https://asciinema.org) as its | ||
default host for the recordings. It's free, public service (all uploaded | ||
recordings are __private by default__ though). | ||
|
||
If you're not comfortable with uploading your terminal sessions to | ||
asciinema.org, or your company's policy prevents you from doing that, you can | ||
set up your own instance for private use. See | ||
our [asciinema server install guide](https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-server/wiki/Installation-guide). | ||
|
||
Once you have your instance running, point asciinema recorder to it by setting | ||
API URL in `~/.config/asciinema/config` file as follows: | ||
|
||
```ini | ||
[api] | ||
url = https://your.asciinema.host | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Alternatively, you can set `ASCIINEMA_API_URL` environment variable: | ||
|
||
ASCIINEMA_API_URL=https://your.asciinema.host asciinema rec | ||
|
||

# asciinema server | ||
|
||
__asciinema server__ is a server-side component of the asciinema ecosystem. | ||
|
||
It implements a hosting platform for terminal session recordings. This includes | ||
an API endpoint for uploading recordings, which is used by the [asciinema | ||
CLI](../cli/index.md), and offers a familiar web interface for viewing, | ||
browsing, sharing and managing recordings. It's privacy friendly, serving no ads | ||
and performing no tracking. | ||
|
||
The server is built with [Elixir language](https://elixir-lang.org/) and | ||
[Phoenix framework](https://www.phoenixframework.org/), and embeds asciinema's | ||
virtual terminal, [avt](https://github.com/asciinema/avt), to perform tasks such | ||
as preview generation and recording analysis. | ||
|
||
[asciinema.org](https://asciinema.org) is a public asciinema server instance | ||
managed by the asciinema team, offering free hosting for terminal recordings, | ||
available to everyone. Read [About asciinema.org](dot-org.md) to learn more | ||
about this instance. | ||
|
||
asciinema server is self-hosting friendly, and can be deployed in any | ||
containerized environment, both for public or internal/private use. If you're | ||
not comfortable with uploading your terminal sessions to asciinema.org, or your | ||
company's policy prevents you from doing that, you can set up your own instance. | ||
Read the [self-hosting quick start guide](self-hosting/quick-start.md) for | ||
deployment overview. | ||
|
||

|
||
Notable features: | ||
|
||
- hosting of terminal session recordings in [asciicast](../asciicast/v2.md) | ||
format, | ||
- perfectly integrated [asciinema player](../player/index.md) for best viewing | ||
experience, | ||
- editable recording metadata like title or long description (Markdown), | ||
- configurable terminal themes and font families, | ||
- easy [sharing](sharing.md) of recordings via secret links, | ||
- easy [embedding](embedding.md) of the player, or linking via preview images | ||
(SVG), | ||
- ability to download pure text version (`.txt`) of a recording, | ||
- visibility control for recordings: unlisted (secret) or public. | ||
