cine.io Meetups (Google Hangouts clone)

This app demonstrates the cine.io Peer SDK. It provides real time video/audio/text chat using rooms and peer-to-peer calling.

Demo

We have this exact app up and running on https://meetups.cine.io/. Please note that the demo requires a compatible browser (Tested on Firefox > 34.0 / Chrome > 38.0, Opera > 24.0). Also note that if you are using Chrome and want to use the screen-sharing functionality, it will prompt you to install the cine.io Screen Sharing extension.

App Architecture

This is a Node.js, React.js, and flux based web app that uses the cine.io Peer SDK client to create a google hangouts clone.

Cine Peer Code Walk-through

CineAPIBridge is the section of code that interacts with the cine.io Peer SDK and triggers actions in the CineActionCreators action creator.

CineAPIBridge.init in app initializes all of the event listeners from the peer client.

ServerAPIBridge.identify fetches the secure identity signature required to securly identify on the cine signaling server. This is NOT how this should be done in a production application. This is meant to simulate a user logging in and getting their secure identity signature associated with their user id. In a production application, only return the correct secure identity signature which is appropriate for each individual user. The lobby is a simple in memory store of who is currently "logged in" to the site. The lobby acts as a phone book and is implemented in the simplest way to demonstrate calling from one user to another.

The MessageStore simply stores all the peer to peer messages.

The SessionStore stores the active call, which room you are in, your identity, if you have your webcam started, your microphone started, and your screen share started.

The IdentitiesStore stores all of the other logged in users. It is simply a phone book of other users to demonstrate the calling functionality of the cine.io Peer SDK.

Meetups.react is the entry point to the react view. It holds the main video, small videos, controls and chat.

Running Without SSL (screen-sharing won't work)

Create a .env file:

CINE_IO_PUBLIC_KEY= cine.io production public key
CINE_IO_SECRET_KEY= cine.io production secret key
PORT=9080
NODE_ENV=development

Start using foreman:

foreman run coffee server.coffee

Running With SSL (required for screen-sharing)

SSL is required for screen sharing. This is pretty hardcoded to work with our own SSL certificates. But you can modify create_cine_https_server.coffee to use your own self-signed SSL certs.

Create a .env file:

CINE_IO_PUBLIC_KEY= cine.io production public key
CINE_IO_SECRET_KEY= cine.io production secret key
SSL_CERTS_PATH=../peer-client/ignored/certificates
PORT=9080
SSL_PORT=9443
NODE_ENV=development

Start using foreman:

foreman run coffee server.coffee
