  jitterBuffer: 512
  # List of IceServers used for RTC
  iceServers:
    - urls:
        - stun:stun.l.google.com:19302
# Example turn server
#    - urls:
#        - turn:turnserver.example.org:1234

Default env file used by SystemD service: * Note: all environment variables must be prefixed with BBBRECORDER_ * Note: all environment variables must be upper case * Note: nested objects are separated by _ (underscore) - Example: BBBRECORDER_RECORDER_DIRECTORY=/var/lib/bbb-webrtc-recorder (equivalent of recorder.directory in config file)

/etc/default/bbb-webrtc-recorder

Systemd service:

systemctl enable --now bbb-webrtc-recorder
systemctl status bbb-webrtc-recorder

Make sure to start redis:

systemctl enable --now redis
systemctl status redis

Debugging

Examples of how to print out config values:

bbb-webrtc-recorder [-c config.yml] --dump http
bbb-webrtc-recorder [-c config.yml] --dump http.port
bbb-webrtc-recorder [-c config.yml] --dump recorder.directory

To run in debug mode (verbose logging) either enable debug in configuration file debug: true or run the application with -d flag:

bbb-webrtc-recorder [-c config.yml] -d

Viewing SystemD logs:

journalctl -u bbb-webrtc-recorder -f
