RtcRoom

A real-time video sharing and room management application.

Components

• Signaling Server: Go-based WebSocket server for room management and signaling.
• Client: Qt/C++ application for Windows using WebRTC.

Prerequisites

• Go 1.18+
• Qt 6.x
• CMake 3.16+
• A C++ compiler supporting C++17

Build Instructions

Signaling Server (Go)

1. Navigate to the server directory:

   cd server

2. Run the server:

   go run .

   The server will start on ws://localhost:8080/ws.

Client (Qt/C++ Windows)

1. Open the client/CMakeLists.txt file in Qt Creator or use CMake from the command line.
2. Ensure you have the WebRTC libraries available. Update CMakeLists.txt with the correct paths to your WebRTC installation if necessary.
   • You may need to set WEBRTC_ROOT or manually configure include/link directories in CMakeLists.txt.
3. Build the project:

   mkdir build
   cd build
   cmake ..
   cmake --build .

4. Run the generated executable.

Usage

1. Start the Signaling Server.
2. Start two instances of the Client.
3. In the Client, enter the server URL (default: ws://localhost:8080/ws) and click Connect.
4. Enter a Room ID (e.g., room1) and click Join Room.
5. The application will simulate the signaling process (Offer/Answer exchange). Video is currently a placeholder.
