import SimpleWebRTCWrapper from 'simple-webrtc-wrapper';
 
const connection = new SimpleWebRTCWrapper({
  maxChunkSize: 16384,
  stunServers: [
    'stun.l.google.com:19302',
    'stun1.l.google.com:19302',
    'stun2.l.google.com:19302',
    'stun3.l.google.com:19302',

  ],
  sdpConstraints: {
    optional: [],
  },
});

Options

• message - Fired when an object is recieved from the peer
• fileChunk - Fired when a file chunk is recieved from the peer

Example

Host

(async () => {
  const connection = new SimpleWebRTCWrapper();
  const createdRoom = await connection.createRoom();
  const HOST_OFFER = createdRoom.offer; // send this to the peer
 
  createdRoom.finishCreatingRoom(PEER_OFFER);
 
  connection
    .on('connected', (e) => console.log('connected'))
    .on('message', (e) => console.log('recieved', e))
    .on('fileChunk', (e) => console.log('recieved chunk', e));
})();

Peer

(async () => {
  const connection = new SimpleWebRTCWrapper();
 
  const PEER_OFFER = await connection.joinRoom(HOST_OFFER); // send this to the host
 
  connection
    .on('connected', (e) => console.log('connected'))
    .on('message', (e) => console.log('recieved', e))
    .on('fileChunk', (e) => console.log('recieved chunk', e));
})();
