Prerequisistes

• NFD
• virtualenv
• ndnrtc-client

pip install virtualenv
brew update
brew tap remap/ndnrtc
brew install ndnrtc

Install

From source

Inside cloned repo:

virtualenv env && source env/bin/activate
pip install .

Using homebrew

brew tap remap/ndnrtc
brew install ndnrtc ndnrtc-stream

Use

1. Configure NFD security
2. Generate new self-signed identity (or use existing one) which will be used for signing data:

ndnsec-keygen /ndnrtc | ndnsec-install-cert -
ndnsec list

3. Publish RTC stream:

ndnrtc-stream publish /ndnrtc

4. In a separate terminal window, fetch stream:

ndnrtc-stream fetch /ndnrtc/rtc-stream

Fetching from remote machine

If you want to fetch video published bby ndnrtc-stream from remote machine, make sure you have registered NFD route for this machine. Usually, UDP tunnels are used (NDN over UDP) to establish routes between machines:

nfdc face create udp://<remote-machine-ip-address>
nfdc route add ndn://ndnrtc <face-id>
ndnrtc-stream fetch /ndnrtc/rtc-stream
