How to fix Jigasi config file getting overwritten

Problem:

My .jitsi-meet-cfg/jigasi/sip-communicator.properties is getting overwritten every time I start Jigasi, but I need to set

net.java.sip.communicator.impl.protocol.sip.acc1.AUTHORIZATION_NAME=abc123abc

in order for my SIP communication to work.

Solution

Run this script after starting the jigasi container. It will fix the overwritten config and then restart the Jigasi Java process without restarting the container

#!/bin/sh

sed -i -e "s/# SIP account/net.java.sip.communicator.impl.protocol.sip.acc1.AUTHORIZATION_NAME=abc123abc/g" .jitsi-meet-cfg/jigasi/sip-communicator.properties

# Reload config hack
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f jigasi.yml exec jigasi /bin/bash -c 'kill $(pidof java)'
