A demo application of mediasoup v3.

Try it online at https://v3demo.mediasoup.org

• mediasoup website and documentation: mediasoup.org
• mediasoup support forum: mediasoup.discourse.group

By adding query parameters into the URL you can set certain settings of the application:

• Clone the project:

$ git clone https://github.com/versatica/mediasoup-demo.git
$ cd mediasoup-demo
$ git checkout v3

• Ensure you have installed the dependencies required by mediasoup to build.

• Set up the mediasoup-demo server:

$ cd server
$ npm install

• Copy config.example.js as config.js and customize it for your scenario:

$ cp config.example.js config.js

NOTE: To be perfectly clear, "customize it for your scenario" is not something "optional". If you don't set proper values in config.js the application won't work. You must configure a tls certificate.

• Set up the mediasoup-demo browser app:

$ cd app
# For node 16
$ npm install
# For node 18, use legacy peer dependencies
$ npm install --legacy-peer-deps  

• Run the Node.js server application in a terminal:

$ cd server
$ npm start

• In a different terminal build and run the browser application:

$ cd app
$ npm start

If you configured a self-signed tls certificate, and receive wss: connection errors, open the wss: url with https: protocol to accept the cert and allow wss: connections in your browser.

• Enjoy.

• Globally install gulp-cli NPM module (may need sudo):

$ npm install -g gulp-cli

• Build the production ready browser application:

$ cd app
$ gulp dist

• Upload the entire server folder to your server and make your web server (Apache, Nginx, etc) expose the server/public folder.

• Edit your server/config.js with appropriate settings (listening IP/port, logging options, valid TLS certificate, etc).

• Within your server, run the Node.js application by setting the DEBUG environment variable according to your needs (more info):

$ DEBUG="*mediasoup* *ERROR* *WARN*" node server.js

• If you wish to run it as daemon/service you can use pm2 process manager. Or you can dockerize it among other options.

• The Node.js application exposes an interactive terminal. When running as daemon (in background) the host administrator can connect to it by entering into the server folder and running:

$ npm run connect

• Required environment variables: server/DOCKER.md.
• Build the Docker image: server/docker/build.sh.
• Run the Docker image: server/docker/run.sh.

$ cd server
$ docker/build.sh
$ MEDIASOUP_ANNOUNCED_IP=192.168.1.34 ./docker/run.sh

• Make sure https.listenIp is set to 0.0.0.0.
• Make sure TLS certificates reside in server/certs directory with names fullchain.pem and privkey.pem.
• The default mediasoup port range is just 2000-2020, which is not suitable for production. You should increase it, however you should then run the container in network="host" mode.
