Configuring the Rest Direct serivce for patreon CDN access
Rest Direct is an internal system used to transfer large blobs of data from your server to the OpenAudioMc network. It's used by features like Local File Playback to upload files to our cdn and for our system to trigger events in your server without requiring an active session.
RestDirect requires an additional port allocation, which does mean that some hosting providers (primarily cheaper ones) aren't compatible with this feature, and locking you out of some really cool features. Please contact a system administrator or admin of your server to ask for an extra allocation.
Some good things to keep in mind;
8050
and can be configured in the config file. If that port fails, it'll try 80
, 8080
, and three random ports. It'll do a signature check to make sure that the port is attached properly and isn't interfering with another application.
