This is a working example of video calling between two browsers using nodejs and webrtc

WebRTC nodejs video call demo

Usage

The signaling server uses Node.js and ws and can be started as such:

$ npm install
$ npm start

With the server running, open a recent version of Firefox, Chrome, or Safari and visit https://localhost:8443.

• Note the HTTPS! There is no redirect from HTTP to HTTPS.
• Some browsers or OSs may not allow the webcam to be used by multiple pages at once. You may need to use two different browsers or machines.

TLS

Recent versions of Chrome require secure websockets for WebRTC. Thus, this example utilizes HTTPS. Included is a self-signed certificate that must be accepted in the browser for the example to work.

Update

This is a demo version build some time ago for learning purposes only. A new production ready version of this application with a detailed documentation is now available in this repo. Please take a look and feel free to build a real application with it if you find it useful.
