yhub-server

This directory contains the La Suite Docs-specific configuration for yhub (@y/hub), the collaboration server that synchronizes Yjs documents between editors in real time.

It is not a fork of yhub — it is a thin wrapper (server.js) that:

• starts a yhub instance (websocket sync on port 3002, backed by Redis/Valkey and PostgreSQL),
• plugs in an auth plugin that resolves users and per-document access rights by calling the Docs Django backend (/api/v1.0/users/me/ and /api/v1.0/documents/{id}/),
• mirrors the environment conventions used elsewhere in this repository (*_FILE secret indirection, COLLABORATION_SERVER_ORIGIN allowlist, …).

The Dockerfile builds the container image used by the yhub service in compose.yml.

⚠️ License warning (AGPL)

This directory depends on @y/hub, which is licensed under the GNU AGPL-3.0 (or a separate proprietary license from its author). Unlike the rest of this repository (MIT), the code in this directory is loaded into the same process as AGPL-licensed code. As a consequence:

• Any modification to the code in this directory (in particular server.js) must be released under an AGPL-compatible license if you run or distribute the resulting server, including making it available to users over a network (AGPL section 13).
• See the LICENSE file in this directory for details.

The rest of La Suite Docs is not affected. The Django backend and the frontend never link against yhub; they communicate with it exclusively through network requests (REST/HTTP and WebSocket). They remain under the MIT license of the repository root.
