Meet

Start a Jitsi meeting quickly with meet. It creates a meeting with a secure ID and prints the meeting URL to stdout. It can style, open, copy, and send the URL for your convenience. No registration required, no data collected.

Dependencies

meet has no required runtime dependencies.

Jitsi requires a browser like Firefox, the Jitsi Desktop app, or a telephone to join a meeting.

Optional dependencies add more features:

  • xsel to copy URL to clipboard
  • xdg-open to open the URL in your browser
  • keybase to send the URL to a friend

Usage

$ meet
https://meet.jit.si/A8ul9DAc/Meeting
$ meet -c hack on meet
https://meet.jit.si/iN9SYLvP/HackOnMeet
🚀 copied to clipboard!

Configuration

Meet works without any configuration files. Optionally, you can initialize to change defaults:

$ meet --init
Base url (meet.jit.si): my-jitsi-server.local
Add random letters to URL for security? (Y/n): n
📝 wrote config to /home/user/.config/meet/settings.yml
$ ./meet hack on meet
https://my-jitsi-server.local/HackOnMeet

Meet respects the XDG_CONFIG_HOME environment variable if it's set.
