rtcstats.js

Low-level logging on peerconnection API calls and periodic getStats calls for analytics/debugging purposes

Integration

Just one simple step: include out/rtcstats.js before any of your webrtc javascript.

<script src='/path/to/rtcstats.js></script>

It will transparently modify the RTCPeerConnection objects and start sending data. If you need things like a client or conference identifier to be sent along, the recommended way is to use the legacy peerconnection constraints when constructing your RTCPeerConnection like this:

var pc = new RTCPeerConnection(yourConfiguration, {
  optional: [
    {rtcStatsClientId: "your client identifier"},
    {rtcStatsPeerId: "identifier for the current peer"},
    {rtcStatsConferenceId: "identifier for the conference, e.g. room name"}
  ]
})

requiring as module

const trace = require("rtcstats/trace-ws")("wss://rtcstats.appear.in"); // url-to-your-websocket-server
require("rtcstats")(
   trace,
   1000, // interval at which getStats will be polled.
   ['', 'webkit', 'moz'] // RTCPeerConnection prefixes to wrap.
);

When using ontop of adapter it is typically not necessary (and potentially harmful) to shim the webkit and moz prefixes in addition to the unprefixed version.
