React Native WebRTC

React-Native-WebRTC-Web-Shim

npm version npm downloads Discourse topics

Add support for react-native-web to a react-native-webrtc app.

Getting Started

Use one of the following preferred package install methods to immediately get going.

npm: npm install react-native-webrtc-web-shim --save
yarn: yarn add react-native-webrtc-web-shim
pnpm: pnpm install react-native-webrtc-web-shim

Extra Required Steps

Import directly from our library instead of react-native-webrtc.

import {
  RTCPeerConnection,
  RTCIceCandidate,
  RTCSessionDescription,
  RTCRtpTransceiver,
  RTCRtpReceiver,
  RTCRtpSender,
  RTCErrorEvent,
  MediaStream,
  MediaStreamTrack,
  mediaDevices,
  permissions,
  registerGlobals,
  RTCView,
} from 'react-native-webrtc-web-shim';

When displaying the RTCView component make sure to give it the stream object as a prop instead of streamURL, you'll then be using an HTML5 video element on your Web app.

Simply change this.

<RTCView streamURL={stream.toURL()} />

To be like the following.

<RTCView stream={stream} />

You don't need toURL as that is handled for you.
