This application should give you a ready-made starting point for writing your own video apps with Twilio Video. Before we begin, we need to collect all the config values we need to run the application:
Config Value | Description |
---|---|
Configuration Profile SID | Identifier for a set of config properties for your video application - find yours here. |
Account SID | Your primary Twilio account identifier - find this in the console here. |
API Key | Used to authenticate - generate one here. |
API Secret | Used to authenticate - just like the above, you'll get one here. |
When you generate an API key pair at the URLs above, your API Secret will only
be shown once - make sure to save this in a secure location,
or possibly your ~/.bash_profile
.
Create a configuration file for your application:
cp config.example.php config.php
Edit config.php
with the four configuration parameters we gathered from above.
Next, we'll need to install the Twilio Helper library via Composer.
composer install
Now we should be all set! Run the application using the php -S
command.
php -S 127.0.0.1:8000
Alternately, you could simply place the contents of this project directly in the
webroot of your server and visit index.html
.
Your application should now be running at http://localhost:8000. Select any room name and join the room. Join the same room with another user in another browser tab or window to start video chatting!
