SDPMIN or session description protocol minifier is a tool that compresses the SDP WebRTC offer to a tiny string that can be stored in a signaling server or even shared over any messaging platform for a server-less approach.
The demo includes a simple playground to showcase the compressing and uncompressing of the SDP offer object.
Just install the sdpmin like this:
npm i sdpmin -Dimport { pack, unpack } from "sdpmin";
const packedStr = pack(SDP_STRING); // output: SKk12k3kdDk2Dj21jk31jk23j....
const sdp = unpack(SDP_COMPRESSED_STRING); // output: -o:123123123....The default version that is exported is v1. This outputs a safe lossless compression, other version are available can can be imported with VX prefix e.g:
import { packV0, unpackV0 } from 'sdpmin';
const packedStr = packV0(...);
const sdp = unpakcV0(...)- v0 - full output without compression.
- v1 - default lossless compression.
- v2* - (TODO) Smaller bundle size & lossless compression.
- v3* - (TODO) Aggressive compression that is lossy.
Check the Demo above for examples outputs.
To start the playground locally install dependencies and run start.
npm ci && npm run start
If you have a suggestion that would make this better, please create an issues first. Upon discussed you can fork the repo and create a pull request. Don't forget to give the project a star! Thanks again!
