(Dark Souls) Text Overlay

Stream-overlay to include in Dark-Souls sessions for e.g. the number of deaths

An overlay that can be managed via twitch chat or via a password-secured webpage, that e.g. moderators can access and edit.

How to edit the displayed content

You can either define a twitch chat and a command to be used, which then moderators and the broadcaster can use to update the shown content, e.g. using !overlay 7 deaths.

Alternatively, the page offers a very simplistic, password-protected page, that can be used to update the value as well as configure the font color:

Setup

The docker image can be found here: hub.docker.com/r/flowmo7/dark-souls-overlay.

Possible environment variables:

• DOMAIN: The domain this application is available at, e.g. dark-souls-overlay.example.org
• IS_SECURE: Whether this application is available as HTTPS / behind an HTTPS reverse proxy (which it should be). Default to true.
• ADMIN_USER: The username to access the dashboard to change the overlay content. Defaults to admin.
• ADMIN_PASSWORD: The password to access the dashboard to change the overlay content. Defaults to password. You definitely want to change that one!
• TWITCH_COMMAND_CHANNEL: The name of the twitch channel to listen for commands. If not set, will not listen on any chats for commands.
• TWITCH_COMMAND_PREFIX: The command prefix for updating the content via twitch chat. Defaults to !overlay.

The data is being persisted in /var/dark-souls-backend/data. It is advised to map this path as a volume, although not necessary.
