Simon e5a2afcc70 eporner: stream through the server; the signed CDN links are IP-locked
The redirect proxy from 6ba65f1 still played the one-minute "watch on
eporner.com" clip away from home: checked from foreign networks
(check-host.net nodes in BR/DE/HU), a freshly signed link answers 302 ->
static.eporner.com/na.mp4, while the IP that resolved it gets the file. A
redirect therefore only works for a player behind the server's public IP.

/proxy/eporner/{alnum_id}/{height}.mp4 now streams the mp4: resolves the
link (cached 90 min, re-resolved when the CDN answers with a redirect),
forwards Range, and returns a sized body so 206 responses keep
Content-Length. It is no longer a redirect proxy, so app clients keep the
URLs in formats. Verified locally: HEAD, 0-1, mid-file and open-ended ranges
return 206 with Content-Length/Content-Range and valid MP4 data.

Hottub Docs

This folder is the fastest handoff path for anyone adding or repairing a channel.

Start here:

  1. Read architecture.md for the server flow, request lifecycle, and core types.
  2. Read provider-playbook.md — its top "Best Practices (Living)" section is the cross-cutting rule set to internalize first, then follow the rest of the playbook for the exact process to add a new provider or proxy.
  3. Use provider-catalog.md to find the closest existing implementation to copy.
  4. Use docs/hottubapp/*.html when you need the client-facing API contract for status, videos, or uploaders.
  5. Only then touch prompts/new-channel.md; it assumes the docs above exist.

Recommended local workflow:

cargo check -q
HOT_TUB_PROVIDER=<channel_id> cargo check -q
HOT_TUB_PROVIDER=<channel_id> cargo run --features debug

Useful runtime baseline:

DATABASE_URL=hottub.db
RUST_LOG=info
PROXY=0
BURP_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8081
FLARE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8191/v1
DOMAIN=127.0.0.1:18080

Key facts:

  • Hottub is a Rust ntex server with providers under src/providers/.
  • build.rs controls compile-time provider registration.
  • /api/videos is the main provider execution path.
  • /proxy/... exists for sites whose direct media or thumbnails need a redirect/proxy layer.
  • Only three providers currently implement /api/uploaders: hsex, omgxxx, and vjav.
  • Uploader IDs should be namespaced like <channel>:<site-local-id> so /api/uploaders can route directly.
