Extends Object

This class is JavaScript wrapper for cURL REST API for Wowza Streaming Engine server
tested with NodeJS version 6.10.2 LTS

Parameters

• options Object? possible to set stream parametres which will use as default for methods
  • options.wowzaAdress string? IP address or domein name of Wowza Streaming Engine (optional, default 'localhost')
  • options.streamFile string? name of a streamfile (optional, default 'myStream.stream')
  • options.application string? name of an application (optional, default 'application')
  • options.appInstance string? name of an application instance (optional, default '_definst_')
  • options.mediaCasterType string? caster type (optional, default 'rtp')

Examples

let Wowza = require('./wowza.js');
wowza = new Wowza({
	wowzaAdress: '192.168.1.15',   // default value is 'localhost'
	streamFile: 'ipCamera.stream', // default is 'myStream.stream'
	application: 'webrtc',         // default is 'live'
	appIstance: '_definst_',       // default is '_definst_'
	mediaCasterType: 'rtp'         // default is 'rtp'
});
wowza.someWowzaMethod(); // now you can use the JS wowza API.

Get a list of streamfiles

Parameters

• options Object?
  • options.application string? name of an application (default value can be another if it was passed to the class constructor) (optional, default 'live')
