A pure Rust implementation of a forwarding server that takes advantage of the memory and concurrency security provided by Rust, with single-threaded decoding speeds up to 5Gib/s and forwarding latency of less than 35 microseconds. The project is more focused on the core business , do not need to access the complex configuration project , almost out of the box .
First of all, I remain in awe and respect for coturn, which is a much more mature implementation and has very comprehensive support for a wide range of features.
However, turn-rs is not a simple duplicate implementation, and this project is not a blind “RIIR”. Because turn server is currently the largest use of the scene or WebRTC, for WebRTC business, many features are not too much necessary, so keep it simple and fast is the best choice.
Because turn-rs only focuses on the core business, it removes a lot of features that are almost less commonly used in WebRTC scenarios, resulting in better performance, both in terms of throughput and memory performance.
I don't think turn servers should be concerned about user information, just do their essential work, it's better to leave the hosting and storing of user information to other services, and interacting with databases adds complexity. turn-rs communicates with external services through http hooks, which can be more flexible in deciding how to deal with it based on their own business situation.
This is an obvious drawback, unlike coturn which provides various transport layer encryption, turn-rs doesn't provide any transport layer encryption, but turn-rs mainly serves WebRTC business, WebRTC comes with transport layer encryption, and the packets transmitted in turn are already encrypted, so in order to reduce the overhead, turn -rs does not provide transport layer encryption.
- Prometheus metrics exporter.
- Only long-term authentication mechanisms are used.
- Static authentication lists can be used in configuration files.
- Only virtual ports are always allocated and no real system ports are occupied.
- The transport layer supports tcp and udp protocols, and supports binding multiple network cards or interfaces.
- The REST API can be used so that the turn server can proactively notify the external service of events and use external authentication mechanisms, and the external can also proactively control the turn server and manage the session.

First, Get the compiled binaries from github release.
Start with configuration file:
turn-server --config=/etc/turn-server/config.tomlPlease check the example configuration file for details: turn-server.toml
docker pull ghcr.io/mycrl/turn-serverThe custom configuration file overrides the /etc/turn-server/config.toml path inside the image through -v.
./install-service.sh
This will compile the project and install and start the service.
You need to install the Rust toolchain, if you have already installed it, you can skip it, Install Rust, then get the source code:
git clone https://github.com/mycrl/turn-rsCompile the entire workspace in release mode:
cd turn-rs
cargo build --releaseAfter the compilation is complete, you can find the binary file in the "target/release" directory.
Prometheus metrics exporter is not enabled by default, use the prometheus feature flag if you need to enable it:
cargo build --release --features prometheusLGPL Copyright (c) 2022 Mr.Panda.
