@millions-hair-24956 Is there a sample on how to implement a webcam from a user’s browser to a livestream?

To implement webcam streaming from a user's browser to a livestream using LiveKit, you can follow the steps outlined in the LiveKit documentation. Here's a brief overview: 1. Set Up LiveKit SDK: Install the LiveKit SDK in your project using npm or yarn. 2. Create a Token Endpoint: Set up a server endpoint to generate access tokens for users to join a LiveKit room. 3. Build the Web Page: Create a page in your web app to connect to a LiveKit room and publish the webcam stream. Use components like
LiveKitRoom
,
ControlBar
, and
ParticipantTile
from
@livekit/components-react
to manage video and audio tracks. Here's a basic example in Next.js:
Copy code
import { LiveKitRoom, ControlBar, ParticipantTile, useTracks } from '@livekit/components-react';
import { useEffect, useState } from 'react';

export default function RoomPage() {
  const [token, setToken] = useState('');

  useEffect(() => {
    async function fetchToken() {
      const response = await fetch('/api/get_lk_token?room=myroom&username=myuser');
      const data = await response.json();
      setToken(data.token);
    }
    fetchToken();
  }, []);

  if (!token) {
    return <div>Loading...</div>;
  }

  return (
    <LiveKitRoom token={token} serverUrl={process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_LIVEKIT_URL} video={true} audio={true}>
      <ControlBar />
      <ParticipantTile />
    </LiveKitRoom>
  );
}
