WebRTC

WebRTC peer allows you to connect to Jellyfish via WebRTC standard.

Read more about WebRTC here.

Compatibility​

Configuration options​

Optional

  • enableSimulcast (boolean, default: true) - Enables the peer to use simulcast

Env variables​

  • JF_WEBRTC_USED - has to be true if WebRTC peers will be used

  • JF_WEBRTC_TURN_LISTEN_IP - the IP address on which TURN servers will listen. By default set to 127.0.0.1. When running Jellyfish via Docker, this MUST be set to 0.0.0.0, even for local tests.

  • JF_WEBRTC_TURN_IP - the IP address, under which TURN will present itself to the clients. By default set to 127.0.0.1. When running Jellyfish via Docker, this MUST be set to real (non-loopback) address, even for local tests.

  • JF_WEBRTC_TURN_PORT_RANGE - port range, where UDP TURN will try to open ports. By default set to 50000-59999. The bigger the range is, the more users server will be able to handle. Useful when not using the --network=host option to limit the UDP ports used only to ones published from a Docker container.

  • JF_WEBRTC_TURN_TCP_PORT - port number of TCP TURN

Example Docker commands​

Explicit port exposure (macOS compatible)

docker run -p 50000-50050:50000-50050/udp \
           -p 8080:8080/tcp \
           -e JF_SERVER_API_TOKEN=token \
           -e JF_HOST=localhost:8080 \
           -e JF_WEBRTC_USED=true \
           -e JF_WEBRTC_TURN_PORT_RANGE=50000-50050 \
           -e JF_WEBRTC_TURN_IP=192.168.0.1 \
           -e JF_WEBRTC_TURN_LISTEN_IP=0.0.0.0 \
           ghcr.io/jellyfish-dev/jellyfish:0.5.0-rc0
caution

Make sure that the exposed UDP ports match JF_WEBRTC_TURN_PORT_RANGE. The range of the ports shouldn't be too wide as it might cause problems with container startup.

Using host network (Linux only)

docker run --network=host \
           -e JF_SERVER_API_TOKEN=token \
           -e JF_HOST=localhost:8080 \
           -e JF_WEBRTC_USED=true \
           -e JF_WEBRTC_TURN_IP=192.168.0.1 \
           -e JF_WEBRTC_TURN_LISTEN_IP=0.0.0.0 \
           ghcr.io/jellyfish-dev/jellyfish:0.5.0-rc0
