RTCPeerConnection & Jingle

This module extends the RTCPeerConnection API to emit and process data in a JSON format instead of SDP.

To use it, create your RTCPeerConnection with

const pc = new RTCPeerConnection({sdpSemantics: 'json'});

The createOffer and createAnswer methods will add a JSON field to the RTCSessionDescription while the setRemoteDescription method processes this field and transforms it to SDP.

The transformation is done using the sdp module and reensembles the data structures used by the ORTC-WebRTC shim. This format can easily be transformed to the Jingle format used by jxt, allowing the use of Jingle for signaling.

This package superceedes the older RTCPeerConnection package. Wrapping the native RTCPeerConnection API in a nice wrapper was necessary in 2013 but is no longer required these days.
