Twitch VOD and Live Stream archiving platform with a real-time and rendered chat experience. Files are saved in a friendly format allowing for use without Ganymede.
ganymede_landing_video.mp4
Ganymede allows archiving of past streams (VODs) and live streams with a real-time chat playback along with a archival-friendly rendered chat. All files are saved in a friendly way that doesn't require Ganymede to view them (see file structure). Ganymede is the successor of Ceres.

- A Twitch Application
Ganymede consists of four docker containers:
- API
- Frontend
- Postgres Database
- Nginx
Feel free to use an existing Postgres database container and Nginx container if you don't want to spin new ones up.
- Download a copy of the
docker-compose.ymlfile andnginx.conf. - Edit the
docker-compose.ymlfile modifying the environment variables, see environment variables for more information. - Run
docker compose up -d. - Visit the address and port you specified for the frontend and login with username:
adminpassword:ganymede. - Change the admin password or create a new user, grant admin permissions on that user, and delete the admin user.
The API container can be run as a non root user. To do so add PUID and PGID environment variables, setting the value to your user. Read linuxserver's docs about this for more information.
Note: On startup the container will chown the config, temp, and logs directory. It will not recursively chown the /data/videos directory. Ensure the mounted /data/videos directory is readable by the set user.
The docker-compose.yml file has comments for each environment variable. The *_URL envionrment variables must be the 'public' URLs (e.g. https://ganymedem.domain.com) it cannot be a URL to just the docker service.
