LiveExWebRTC

Phoenix Live Components for Elixir WebRTC.

Installation

In your mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:live_ex_webrtc, "~> 0.4.0"}
  ]
end

In your tailwind.config.js

module.exports = {
  content: [
    "../deps/live_ex_webrtc/**/*.*ex" // ADD THIS LINE
  ]
}

Usage

LiveExWebRTC comes with two Phoenix.LiveViews:

• LiveExWebRTC.Publisher - sends audio and video via WebRTC from a web browser to a Phoenix app (browser publishes)
• LiveExWebRTC.Player - sends audio and video via WebRTC from a Phoenix app to a web browser and plays it in the HTMLVideoElement (browser subscribes)

See module docs and live_broadcaster for more.

Local development

For local development:

• include live_ex_webrtc in your mix.exs via path

• modify NODE_PATH env variable in your esbuild configuration, which is located in config.exs - this will allow for importing javascript hooks from live_ex_webrtc.

  For example:

  config :esbuild,
    # ...
    default: [
      # ...
      env: %{
        "NODE_PATH" => "#{Path.expand("../deps", __DIR__)}:/path/to/parent/dir/of/live_ex_webrtc"
      }
    ]
  

• modify content in tailwind.config.js - this will compile tailwind classes used in live components.

  For example:

  module.exports = {
    content: [
      // ...
      "../deps/**/*.ex"
    ]
  }
