ReactRTC-beta is a JS library that brings the real-time communication capabilities of WebRTC into React applications.

ReactRTC simplifies the implementation of WebRTC by providing developers with a customizable react component and signalling server module for the back-end.

• Live video & audio streaming capabilities.
• GUI interface providing key user functionality.
• Signalling server module utilizing websockets.
• Multi-user support through the implementation of server side rooms.

ReactRTC runs on React^16.11.0 and requires the following dependencies to operate.

Import the <RTCMesh /> component into your React application to begin.

To set the URL of the signaling server pass the URL into props like so. <RTCMesh URL=*url goes here* />

URL must be a websocket, pre-pended with wss:// _*_*_*_*_*_*_*_

To set up Signaling Server to find remote client, import to your server.js file. There should only be 3 lines of code added to your server.js file, numbered below. (assuming Node/Express is being used):

Find your server instance, which will be invoking the http.createServer(), for example:

Create the Signal Server instance and connect to it:

Make sure your server instance is listening for the PORT number, like so:

Choose your preferred tech for exposing a PORT for Signal Server.

Use the same PORT number and call in terminal (ie. 3000):

Using LocalTunnel: npm install -g localtunnel
