Installation

Within your Node.js application:

$ npm install mediasoup --save

Prior to that, ensure your host satisfies the following requirements:

• Node.js >= v4.8.0
• POSIX based operating system (Windows not yet supported)
• Python 2 (python2 or python command must point to the Python 2 executable)
• make
• gcc and g++, or clang, with C++11 support

NOTE: In Debian and Ubuntu install the build-essential package. It includes both make and gcc/g++.

Design goals

• Be a WebRTC SFU (Selective Forwarding Unit).
• Be a Node.js module.
• Be minimalist: just handle the media layer.
• Expose a modern ECMAScript 6 API in sync with WebRTC 1.0 and ORTC.
• Work with current WebRTC client implementations.

Features

• Multiple conference rooms with multiple participants.
• Multi-stream over a single (BUNDLE) transport (Plan-B and Unified-Plan).
• IPv6 ready.
• ICE / DTLS / RTP / RTCP over UDP and TCP.
• Congestion control via REMB.
• Extremely powerful (media worker subprocess coded in C++ on top of libuv).
• Can handle RTP packets in JavaScript land.
