Example codes:
NPM
import { WHIPClient } from "@eyevinn/whip-web-client"
const client = new WHIPClient({
endpoint: "http://<host>/whip/broadcaster",
opts: { debug: true, iceServers: [{ urls: "stun:stun.l.google.com:19320" }] }
});
await client.setIceServersFromEndpoint();
const videoIngest = document.querySelector<HTMLVideoElement>("video#ingest");
const mediaStream = await navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({
video: true,
audio: true,
});
videoIngest.srcObject = mediaStream;
await client.ingest(mediaStream);
Available options are:
