[Feature request] Access invidious-companion through unix socket #5672
Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I want to use unix sockets instead of TCP for communication between invidious and the companion.
It is possible to have the companion listen on a unix socket, but there is apparently no way to access this socket using invidious.
Describe the solution you'd like
Allow the private-url to be a unix socket and access the companion through that socket.
Describe alternatives you've considered
One can of course proxy the socket to a tcp path, but that defeats the idea of using sockets.
Additional context
Talked in the matrix room about it.
