tubertc supports Heroku as a demonstration platform. Deployment can be done via the one-click Deploy to Heroku button or the commands below:
heroku login
git clone https://github.com/trailofbits/tubertc.git
cd tubertc
heroku create --http-git
git push heroku master
heroku ps:scale web=1
heroku open
heroku logs --tail
The server port, debug level, and SSL settings are configured via the settings.json file. tubertc uses port 8080, debug mode, and HTTP by default.
tubertc is the most usable open source video chat I've seen
Chrome 47 and higher block non-TLS access to WebRTC. Try accessing Tuber with HTTPS. If you would like to help us develop Tuber, please consider writing tools that assist with the creation and installation of TLS certificates for local installations.
Tuber has trouble talking with users behind NAT. Supporting users behind NAT requires a properly configured and tested STUN/TURN server. As it stands, Tuber works fine on most corporate LANs but, due to this issue, has trouble working reliably on the open internet.
