signalling server to use with the libp2p WebRTC transport
$ npm i @libp2p/webrtc-star-signalling-server
Nodes using the libp2p-webrtc-star
transport will connect to a known point in the network, a rendezvous point where they can learn about other nodes (Discovery) and exchange their SDP offers (signalling data).
To start a server run:
$ webrtc-star --port=13579 --host=127.0.0.1
Defaults:
port
- 9090host
- '0.0.0.0'
Or in JavaScript:
import { signallingServer } from '@libp2p/webrtc-star-signalling-server'
const server = await signallingServer({
port: 24642,
host: '0.0.0.0',
metrics: false
})
// some time later
await server.stop()
We host signaling servers at wrtc-star1.par.dwebops.pub
and wrtc-star2.sjc.dwebops.pub
, that can be used for practical demos and experimentation, it should not be used for apps in production. Check Deployment.md for how to deploy your own server.
A libp2p-webrtc-star address, using the signalling server we provide, looks like:
/dns4/wrtc-star1.par.dwebops.pub/tcp/443/wss/p2p-webrtc-star/p2p/<your-peer-id>
Note: The address above indicates WebSockets Secure, which can be accessed from both http and https.
