FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package opentok-laravel
OpenTok for Laravel
This is a Laravel 5 wrapper library for the OpenTok SDK. OpenTok is a product by TokBox which utilizes WebRTC to enable peer to peer video, audio and messaging. Please note: this repository is in NO WAY associated with TokBox.
For Laravel 4, please use the 1.0 branch!
Installation
To get the latest version of OpenTok Laravel, simply require the project using Composer:
Instead, you may of course manually update your require block and run composer update if you so choose:
Once OpenTok Laravel is installed, you need to register the service provider. Open up config/app.php and add the following to the providers key.
Tomcorbett\OpentokLaravel\ServiceProvider::class
You can register the OpentokApi facade in the aliases key of your config/app.php file if you like.
'OpentokApi' => Tomcorbett\OpentokLaravel\Facades\OpentokApi::class
Configuration
The defaults are set in `config/cors.php'. Copy this file to your own config directory to modify the values. You can publish the config using this command:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Tomcorbett\OpentokLaravel\ServiceProvider"Get your api_key and api_secret from your OpenTok account and replace the placeholders in your config file.
Before you dive in...
Although it's very tempting to dive straight in, to avoid frustration, I would highly reccomend that you take a look at the Intro to OpenTok and also click around the site and read their docs. My documentation is terrible and only intended to make it easier to use for laravel developers and in no way is it a replacement for the OpenTok documentation (which is really good).
It's definitely a good idea to get to grips with the general flow, the technologies used and also their definitions e.g. session, publisher, subscriber, token etc.
General Usage
First you need to create a session so your subscribers and/or publishers have something to assiciate with
Now we need to create a token for your publisher to use so they can actually publish Please note that you will need to API key on the client side to use in the JS so something like this would be fine: (saves you hardcoding in your JS file or template)
For the JS/HTML etc. for publishing video/audio/messages please see the OpenTok Quick Start Guide and Documentation and take a browse around their How To examples etc. they're pretty good!
Hopefully you will find this library useful, if so please feel free to let me know, and feel free to drop any comments, questions or suggestions to improve!
