# WebRTC P2P Video/Audio Chat

Check out the live app at https://rasjonell-p2p.netlify.app

## Using a Local Peer Discovery Server

By default the app uses `PeerJS` cloud peer discovery server.

In order to use a local Peer Discovery Server you need to install `peerjs` server:

```sh

$ npm install peer -g

```

Then run it locally:

```sh

$ peerjs --port 9000 --key peerjs --path /myapp

  Started PeerServer on ::, port: 9000, path: /myapp (v. 0.3.2)

```

Then you need to change the `PeerContext` connection in `contexts/peers/index.tsx`:

```diff

- const [peer] = useState(new Peer());

+ const [peer] = useState(new Peer({ host: 'localhost', port: 9000, path: '/myapp' }));

```

## Enabling HTTPS

In order to use `MediaDevices` you must have an HTTPS connection.

To enable HTTPS on the project root run:

```sh

openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout keytmp.pem -out cert.pem -days 365

```

Then:

```sh

openssl rsa -in keytmp.pem -out key.pem

```

Finally, change the `start` script in `package.json`:

```diff

- "start": "react-scripts start"

+ "start": "export HTTPS=true&&SSL_CRT_FILE=cert.pem&&SSL_KEY_FILE=key.pem react-scripts start",

```

Now you can run `yarn start` and have fun!
