Light box techniques for vaulted peak

Hey Gang,
I’m working on a vaulted dormer that I want to put a light fixture at the peak. Obviously there’s not much space where the rafters meet the ridge. What’s code for something like that? Probably block out some kinds of box shape big enough to fit the light box. Anyone have a suggestion or technique for something like that? (Sheetrock ceiling to follow)

Start with the fixture you will install there.
That will inform clearance you need.
You can buy a box designed for this use.

Hey Mike, just wanted to say I went with the triangle wedge fixture from the link you sent above. It worked out. Thanks dude.
You are quite welcome.
Don't suppose you took any photos you would share.
Gentleman,
Thank you both for the suggestions. This is helpful.
