npm install twilio-video --save
Using this method, you can require
twilio-video.js like so:
const Video = require('twilio-video');
Releases of twilio-video.js are hosted on a CDN, and you can include these directly in your web app using a <script> tag.
<script src="//media.twiliocdn.com/sdk/js/video/releases/2.0.0-beta12/twilio-video.min.js"></script>
Using this method, twilio-video.js will set a browser global:
const Video = Twilio.Video;
The following is a simple example for connecting to a Room. For more information, refer to the API Docs.
const Video = require('twilio-video');
Video.connect('$TOKEN', { name: 'room-name' }).then(room => {
console.log('Connected to Room "%s"', room.name);
room.participants.forEach(participantConnected);
room.on('participantConnected', participantConnected);
room.on('participantDisconnected', participantDisconnected);
room.once('disconnected', error => room.participants.forEach(participantDisconnected));
});
function participantConnected(participant) {
console.log('Participant "%s" connected', participant.identity);
const div = document.createElement('div');
div.id = participant.sid;
div.innerText = participant.identity;
participant.on('trackSubscribed', track => trackSubscribed(div, track));
participant.on('trackUnsubscribed', trackUnsubscribed);
participant.tracks.forEach(publication => {
if (publication.isSubscribed) {
trackSubscribed(div, publication.track);
}
});
document.body.appendChild(div);
}
function participantDisconnected(participant) {
console.log('Participant "%s" disconnected', participant.identity);
document.getElementById(participant.sid).remove();
}
function trackSubscribed(div, track) {
div.appendChild(track.attach());
}
function trackUnsubscribed(track) {
track.detach().forEach(element => element.remove());
}
