KWS Tutorial

Kurento Web SDK demos

This project contains a set of simple applications built with KWS APIs (kws-media-api and kws-utils).

The source code of this project can be cloned from the GitHub repository.

Installation instructions

Be sure to have installed Node.js in your system:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nodejs

Also be sure to have installed Bower in your system:

sudo npm install -g bower

Each demo is located in a single folder (e.g. FaceOverlay, Recorder, and so on). For example, to launch the FaceOverlay demo, run:

cd FaceOverlay
bower install

An HTTP server is required for these demos. A very simple way of doing this is by means of a NodeJS server. This server can be installed as follows:

sudo npm install http-server -g

Then, in each demo folder execute this command:

http-server

Finally, open this URL in your browser: http://localhost:8080/demo.html

Take into account that demos with Generators (FaceOverlayGenerator, RecorderFilterGenerator, and so on) require co (generator based flow-control for nodejs). In these demos, the experimental JavaScript support must be enabled. In Chrome, this can done in this configuration page:

chrome://flags/#enable-javascript-harmony
