Coolify lists every ${VAR} that compose.yml references as an app setting,
so the four renderer tuning values showed up as entries to fill in. They
are no longer referenced: the renderer's own defaults apply, and an
override goes into compose.yml as a literal.

Deployment
miti99bot compose
The root compose.yml builds this folder as the renderer service and points
the bot at it over the compose network. The API has no authentication: it is
reachable only from inside that network, so never publish its port or attach a
domain to it. The rest of this page covers running the service on its own.
Recommendation
Use a self-hosted/container runtime for v1. Static-only hosts are not enough
because /api/gif must render GIF bytes on the server with Remotion.
Good first targets:
- Coolify Docker app
- Fly.io
- Railway
- Render
- VPS with Docker
- Google Cloud Run generic container
Avoid for v1:
- Cloudflare Workers/Pages
- pure static Vercel/Netlify deploys
Runtime
Env vars, all optional (defaults shown):
RENDERER_PORT=3000
RENDERER_HOST=0.0.0.0
RENDERER_MAX_CONCURRENT_RENDERS=1
RENDERER_RENDER_TIMEOUT_MS=15000
RENDERER_MAX_OPTIONS=32
RENDERER_MAX_OPTION_CHARS=40
An unset or empty variable uses the default above. The root compose.yml
sets only RENDERER_HOST and RENDERER_PORT, so the tuning values use these
defaults unless added there.
Start with 1-2 vCPU and 1-2 GB RAM. Increase only after render benchmarks show the service is CPU-bound or concurrency-limited.
Local non-Docker render smoke requires Chrome Headless Shell shared libraries,
including libnspr4 and libnss3. Prefer Docker for consistent verification.
The Docker image runs npm run browser:ensure during build so production requests
do not need to download Chrome Headless Shell on first render.
RENDERER_RENDER_TIMEOUT_MS is a total render timeout. Values below 7000 are raised to
7000 because Remotion's browser timeout has that minimum.
