Hello together.. everything is working fine, but I need some extra function. I need a function for listening to the peers without sending my own user media data. Is there any way to do this?

hi
i connect with 2 device but i see 3 image on client

It looks like user streams to every user connected. If so then streaming after say 5-10 users you would hit upload limit of internet?

Package dependencies have changed (express has split its modules into separate packages, etc.), proper way to handle this is with a package.json file that allows npm to do its job -- managing packages.

Very interesting project, definitely something I'd like to put to use. When I was trying to get it running I had some issues getting the dependencies, as there was no package.json and it uses an older version of express that needs certain middleware that's no longer included. I managed to get around that, but it looks like the server app wants to send a file "newclient.html" which isn't there. I made a copy of the client.html and named it newclient.html, configured and loaded the server, but all it is displaying is a blank dark grey page. Looking at the page source, its definitely receiving the page source, not sure if its something with Chrome & Firefox or what. Any ideas?

Not sure if anybody is using this, but to make it work in 2020 you need to enable https, by adding something like:

const fs = require("fs");
var express = require('express');
// var http = require('http');
const https = require("https");
var bodyParser = require('body-parser')
var main = express()
// var server = http.createServer(main)

let privateKey, certificate;

privateKey = fs.readFileSync("selfsigned.key", "utf8");
certificate = fs.readFileSync("selfsigned.crt", "utf8");
const credentials = { key: privateKey, cert: certificate };
const server = https.createServer(credentials, main);

Also, if you want to use this across multiple machines, you need to hardcode the IP where 'localhost' is.
I made a couple of minor changes (for example getting rid of https://github.com/anoek/webrtc-group-chat-example/blob/master/client.html#L45 to make the socket.io errors go away) and I can create a PR if anybody is interested.

This was the most minimal WebRTC example I could find so far, thanks for providing this. I can confirm that it works on Linux, Mac OSX and Android.

Hi Anoek,

Original Question:
May I know how should we change stream constraint or camera in the middle of a WebRTC call?

Solved:

Thank you.

Best regards,

Its working on localhost:8080 but when try to access on 192.168.... :8080 it says "you choose not to provide access to camera/microphone. Demo will not work"

I post this here anyway

It already says:

 node -e "var express = require('socket.io');"
(node:23046) DeprecationWarning: process.EventEmitter is deprecated. Use require('events') instead.

and when I start the server:

node signaling-server.js
   info  - socket.io started
/home/cryptid11/node_modules/express/lib/express.js:99
      throw new Error('Most middleware (like ' + name + ') is no longer bundled with Express and must be installed separately. Please see https://github.com/senchalabs/connect#middleware.');
      ^

Error: Most middleware (like bodyParser) is no longer bundled with Express and must be installed separately. Please see https://github.com/senchalabs/connect#middleware.

I'm trying to start from nothing with js so maybe I need to find something newer, the problem is nowadays you find only examples for webrtc where "wonderful" libraries that requires keys interface with the webrtc lib, I can't find anything easy to learn about only webrtc...
