go2rtc dashboard as an iframe in the Frigate UI

[felipecrs]

Describe what you are trying to accomplish and why in non technical terms
I am testing whether some cameras I have are working with 2-way audio or not, but to test that, I need the go2rtc dashboard to be served with HTTPs.

When running go2rtc as its own add-on, this is trivial thanks to hassio's ingress. But when running it inside Frigate, it's a lot more complicated.

Describe the solution you'd like

I believe it would be possible to embed the go2rtc dashboard in the Frigate UI itself, by using some iframe trickery I suppose. I am not experienced with this, but I'm assuming it's possible and it should not be too difficult.

Describe alternatives you've considered

1. Run go2rtc-addon temporarily as its own add-on: I have to shutdown Frigate, copy the config and so on.
2. Expose 1984 in Frigate add-on config, and configure NGINX Proxy Manager to proxy it to some address like go2rtc-home.mydomain.com. This requires NGINX Proxy Manager which I suppose many people don't even know about, but that's the solution I'm using for now.

Additional context
None.

I think the same work that would go into this would be more worthwhile just supporting two way talk in the frigate webui

[felipecrs]

That's true.

go2rtc can serve https itself from version 1.6.0
AlexxIT/go2rtc#352

[felipecrs]

Yeah, but it doesn't make anything easier. To make it work I would need to setup a local DNS server or expose 1984 to open internet, which I very much don't want.

[skrashevich]

you can get wildcard cert for your domain and create a sub-domain (A-record) that point to local IP of frigate/go2rtc host

[felipecrs]

That's clever, I could do that indeed.

Still, I would have to generate a certificate and configure the domain.

Too much work for such a simple goal.

(PS: I'm not looking for alternative solutions, as stated in the issue description I already have one solution working).
