Package Exports

  • peer

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (peer) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

PeerJS Server: Server component for PeerJS

PeerServer helps broker connections between PeerJS clients. Data is not proxied through the server.

##http://peerjs.com

If you prefer to use a cloud hosted PeerServer instead of running your own, sign up for a free API key here

Run PeerServer

Install the library:

$> npm install peer

Run the server:

$> peerjs --port 9000 --key peerjs

Or, create a custom server:

var PeerServer = require('peer').PeerServer;
var server = new PeerServer({ port: 9000 });

Connecting to the server from PeerJS:

<script>
    // No API key required when not using cloud server
    var peer = new Peer('someid', {host: 'localhost', port: 9000});
</script>

Using HTTPS: Simply pass in PEM-encoded certificate and key.

var fs = require('fs');
var PeerServer = require('peer').PeerServer;

var server = new PeerServer({
  port: 9000,
  ssl: {
    key: fs.readFileSync('/path/to/your/ssl/key/here.key'),
    certificate: fs.readFileSync('/path/to/your/ssl/certificate/here.crt')
  }
});
