Project description

This library is an easy way to broadcast livestream to api.video platform on Android.

Getting started

Installation

Gradle

On build.gradle add the following code in dependencies:

dependencies {
    implementation 'video.api:android-live-stream:1.4.2'
}

Permissions

<manifest>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
</manifest>

Your application must dynamically require android.permission.CAMERA and android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO.

Code sample

Add permissions to your AndroidManifest.xml and request them in your Activity/Fragment.
Add a ApiVideoView to your Activity/Fragment layout for the camera preview.

<video.api.livestream.views.ApiVideoView
    android:id="@+id/apiVideoView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" />

Implement a IConnectionListener.

val connectionListener = object : IConnectionListener {
    override fun onConnectionSuccess() {
        //Add your code here
    }

    override fun onConnectionFailed(reason: String?) {
        //Add your code here
    }

    override fun onDisconnect() {
        //Add your code here
    }
}

Create an ApiVideoLiveStream instance.

class MyFragment : Fragment(), IConnectionListener {
    private var apiVideoView: ApiVideoView? = null
    private lateinit var apiVideo: ApiVideoLiveStream

    override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState)

        val apiVideoView = view.findViewById(R.id.apiVideoView)
        val audioConfig = AudioConfig(
            bitrate = 128 * 1000, // 128 kbps
            sampleRate = 44100, // 44.1 kHz
            stereo = true,
            echoCanceler = true,
            noiseSuppressor = true
        )
        val videoConfig = VideoConfig(
            bitrate = 2 * 1000 * 1000, // 2 Mbps
            resolution = Resolution.RESOLUTION_720,
            fps = 30
        )
        apiVideo =
            ApiVideoLiveStream(
                context = getContext(),
                connectionListener = this,
                initialAudioConfig = audioConfig,
                initialVideoConfig = videoConfig,
                apiVideoView = apiVideoView
            )
    }
}
