# Setup
For security reasons regarding CORS, your hosted instance of Materialious must serve as the value for the `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` header on Invidious.

Invidious doesn't provide a simple way to modify CORS, so this must be done with your reverse proxy.

## Step 1: Reverse proxy
### Caddy example
```caddyfile
invidious.example.com {
	@cors_preflight {
		method OPTIONS
	}
	respond @cors_preflight 204

	header Access-Control-Allow-Credentials true
        header Access-Control-Allow-Origin "https://materialious.example.com" {
		defer
	}
        header Access-Control-Allow-Methods "GET,POST,OPTIONS,HEAD,PATCH,PUT,DELETE"
        header Access-Control-Allow-Headers "User-Agent,Authorization,Content-Type"

	reverse_proxy localhost:3000
}

materialious.example.com {
	reverse_proxy localhost:3001
}
```

### Nginx example
```nginx
server {
    listen 80;
    server_name invidious.example.com;

    location / {
        if ($request_method = OPTIONS) {
            return 204;
        }

        proxy_hide_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin;
        add_header Access-Control-Allow-Credentials true;
        add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin "https://materialious.example.com" always;
        add_header Access-Control-Allow-Methods "GET, POST, OPTIONS, HEAD, PATCH, PUT, DELETE" always;
        add_header Access-Control-Allow-Headers "User-Agent, Authorization, Content-Type" always;

        proxy_pass http://localhost:3000;
    }
}

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name materialious.example.com;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:3001;
    }
}
```

### Traefik example
Add this middleware to your Invidious instance:
```yaml
http:
  middlewares:
    materialious:
      headers:
        accessControlAllowCredentials: true
        accessControlAllowOriginList: "https://materialious.example.com"
        accessControlAllowMethods:
          - GET
          - POST
          - OPTIONS
          - HEAD
          - PATCH
          - PUT
          - DELETE
        accessControlAllowHeaders: 
          - User-Agent
          - Authorization 
          - Content-Type
```

### Other
Please open a PR request or issue if you implement this in a different reverse proxy.

## Step 2: Invidious config
The following Invidious values must be set in your config.

- `domain:` - The reverse proxied domain of your Invidious instance.
- `https_only: true` - Must be set if you are using HTTPS.
- `external_port: 443` - Must be set if you are using HTTPS.


## Step 3: Docker
Please ensure you have followed the previous steps before doing this!

```yaml
version: "3"
services:
  materialious:
    image: wardpearce/materialious
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - 3001:80
    environment:
      # No trailing backslashes!
      # URL to your proxied Invidious instance
      VITE_DEFAULT_INVIDIOUS_INSTANCE: "https://invidious.materialio.us"

      # URL TO RYD
      # Leave blank to disable completely.
      VITE_DEFAULT_RETURNYTDISLIKES_INSTANCE: "https://returnyoutubedislikeapi.com"

      # URL to your proxied instance of Materialious
      VITE_DEFAULT_FRONTEND_URL: "https://materialio.us"

      # URL to Sponsorblock
      # Leave blank to completely disable sponsorblock.
      VITE_DEFAULT_SPONSERBLOCK_INSTANCE: "https://sponsor.ajay.app"
