I am Trying to get PhoneRTC demo up and running. https://github.com/alongubkin/phonertc/
I actually have a bunch of doubts
First of all, my understanding: 1. We need a TURN server 2. We need a signaling Server (demo/server in repo) 3. We need a cordova project which will use phoneRTC project (demo/client in repo)
started AWS instance, assigned a dynamic DNS. installed TURN server and started it - but now I'm confused over private ip and public ip part mentioned in tutorial as my ip changes every time I restart the instance. I have one dns name (from noip) which will stick to it. So I'm exploring on how to set TURN server with that
I checked out the source code and followed the npm install cordva etc steps,
For Signaling server, I navigated to demo/server in the source code and tried node index.js after npm install, but got several errors regarding the module not found.
demo/client is also a nodeJS project, right ? If i get it up and running, that is the video chat, right ?
Amazon provides Elastic IPs which allow you to make permanent IP addresses for your EC2 hosts.
Here are the full commands required to run the demo from scratch:
# install global dependencies
npm install -g cordova bower grunt-cli
# clone phonertc
git clone https://github.com/alongubkin/phonertc.git
# build client
cd demo/client
npm install
bower install
cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.device
cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.console
cordova plugin add https://github.com/alongubkin/phonertc.git
# follow the instructions for iOS after running this command
cordova platform add ios android
# before running the next command, make sure to
# change your server details in demo/client/app/scripts/signaling.js
# and in demo/client/app/scripts/CallCtrl.js
grunt build --force
# build server
cd ../server
npm install
To run the server:
cd demo/server
node index.js
To run the client on Android:
cordova run android
To run the client on iOS run:
cordova build ios
And run the project from Xcode on a real iOS device.
