We Meeting

A WebRTC meeting service using mediasoup.

Try it online at https://meet.enimo.cn. You can add /roomname to the URL for specifying a room.

Manual installation

• Prerequisites: Currently we-meeting will only run on nodejs v13.x

$ sudo apt install git npm build-essential redis

• Clone the project:

$ git clone git@github.com:enimo/we-meeting.git
$ cd we-meeting

• Copy server/config/config.example.js to server/config/config.js :

$ cp server/config/config.example.js server/config/config.js

• Copy app/public/config/config.example.js to app/public/config/config.js :

$ cp app/public/config/config.example.js app/public/config/config.js

• Edit your two config.js with appropriate settings (listening IP/port, logging options, valid TLS certificate, don't forget ip setting in last section in server config: (webRtcTransport), etc).

• Set up the browser app:

$ cd app
$ npm install

• Set up the server:

$ cd ..
$ cd server
$ npm install

Run it locally

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

$ cd server
$ npm start

• Note: Do not run the server as root. If you need to use port 80/443 make a iptables-mapping for that or use systemd configuration for that.

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

$ cd app
$ npm start

• Test your development service in a webRTC enabled browser: https://localhost:3443/roomname

Deploy to production environment

1.Package static files

$ cd app
$ npm run build

or use app-mgr.sh (require npm install -g forever)

$ ./app-mgr.sh build

• This will build the client application and copy everythink to server/public from where the server can host client code to browser requests.

• And then, you can set the webserver (nginx etc) wwwroot directory to server/public, default port 3443 which configured in server/config/config.js : listeningPort, and this port will be used by socket.io listen port (default port 443 in production). So you must configure a nginx proxy in production environment, set nginx https 443 redirect to socketio 3443 as below:

        location /socket.io/ {
            proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:3443;
            proxy_http_version 1.1;  
            proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
            proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
            proxy_set_header Host $host;
            proxy_read_timeout 86400;
            proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
            proxy_set_header X-Fowarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
            proxy_set_header X-Fowarded-Proto $scheme;
            proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
            proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
            proxy_redirect off;
        }

        location / {
            root $we-meet-path/server/public;
            try_files  $uri  $uri/  /index.html;
        }
        

2. Configuration server ip

• Edit the server/config/config.js line num nearly 370, with appropriate settings listening IP.

3. Start server.js

Run script manually

$ cd server
$ npm start

Or use shell app-mgr.sh (require npm install -g forever)

$ ./app-mgr.sh start
