This is a web application that allows you to video chat with someone else. Just create a virtual room, share the link with someone and start a video chat. The application also supports traditional web chat using text messages.

Written using JavaScript and Erlang.

Tested with browsers

• Firefox version 22 or later
• Google Chrome version 23 or later

Dependencies:

• Erlang (http://www.erlang.org/download.html)
• Rebar (http://github.com/basho/rebar)

Get the code:

git clone https://github.com/fycth/webrtcexample.git

Build

cd webrtcexample 
rebar get-deps 
rebar compile

Configuration

vi etc/app.config

signaler_listen_port - TCP port to listen on

vi www/js/rtc_lib.js

Edit first line

var wsURI = 'ws://www.webrtcexample.com/s';

Nginx

You should use NGINX >= 1.4 to make it work
Edit your nginx configuraton file and add these lines into the website configuration:

location /s { 
   proxy_http_version 1.1; 
   proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; 
   proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade"; 
} 

Run

./start.sh - to start in console 
./start_detached.sh - to start detached (in background)

Now configure your web server, point them on [www] folder as a 'root dir', and open your new web site.

For Windows Users

1. install erlang for windows 
2. add path to erlang 'bin' directory to PATH environment variable 
3. download 'rebar' and unpack it to a folder 
4. start <rebar_folder>/bootstrap.bat - you will get 'rebar' and 'rebar.cmd' files in this directory after it finished 
5. add path to the 'rebar' created executable to PATH environment variable
